To enter a Tie/Slur (Legato), hold Shift and press the “10/Tie” for 3+ seconds. This will flag the last note
that you played as a Tie, but will not duplicate the note� Instead, the previous note will be tied to the next
note that you play, creating a legato effect� This will set the previous note’s gate time to 100%, and if you
are using the CV/Gate outputs the gate out will not trigger on the new note, similar to classic 303 style
step sequencing�

While a track is playing, you can overdub record notes into its sequence pattern� To enable overdub
recording, hold Shift and press “Rec” while the sequencer is playing� If a track was previously empty, its
length is set to 16 and synchronized to the sequencer� Notes that are held longer than the period of the
step division will be automatically tied together�
You can erase notes during overdub recording by holding shift and pressing or holding “9/Rest”�

You can dynamically adjust the length of sequence during playback or when stopped� To enter the Length
Menu, hold Shift and press/release “Length”�
In the length menu, the A/B/C/D buttons (aka Hold, Velo, Pres, Tilt) each represent 8 of the 32 steps in
the pattern� These are “links” in the pattern “chain”� They light up to indicate how long the sequence is,
and blink to indicate which link is currently playing� You can select a link by pressing any of the A/B/C/D
keys, and you can change the length of the sequence by press/releasing numeric keys 1-8� Increasing the
length of the sequence this way will create empty space in the pattern�
If you hold one of the A/B/C/D or the numeric keys 1-8 for 3+ seconds, the current pattern will be copied
to fill the new space.
For example, if a sequence is 16 steps long, buttons A and B, as well as numeric keys 1-8 will all be lit at
full brightness, buttons C and D will be dark� If instead a sequence is 12 steps long, buttons A and B as
well as numeric keys 1-4 will all be lit at full brightness, buttons C and D will be dark, and numeric keys 5-8
will be lit at half brightness�
To set a sequence to 16 steps: while continuing to hold shift, press/release the B button and then press/
release the 8 key�
To set a sequence to 12 steps: while continuing to hold shift, press/release the B button, and then press/
release the 4 key�
To set a sequence to 2 steps: while continuing to hold shift, press/release the A button, and then press/
release the 2 key�
