There are many features on the SP2 that are accessed by button
combinations. When combining buttons, the PLAY and TRIG buttons are
referred to as UP and DOWN buttons. The GATE buttons are often used
as selectors when used with other context buttons. Usually, one press
of one GATE makes the selection, and the context button should be
released. If multiple GATES are pressed while holding a context button,
it might result in defining a chain of that context button (e.g., scales or
patterns). See all the button combinations below.
