appear in the display, depending on what page you are viewing. In Control Mode, you 
can: 

 

set each knob's, fader's, and assignable button's MIDI CC number, minimum value, 
and maximum value (in each bank) 

 

set each assignable button's behavior (in each bank): momentary, toggle, or single-
press 

 

set each assignable button's "on" and "off" colors (in each bank) 

 

set each bank of knobs, faders, or assignable buttons to communicate with your 
software using standard MIDI, Mackie Control, or HUI protocols or to communicate 
with Arsenal. 

 

edit other functions related to the knobs, faders, and assignable buttons as well as 
the transport controls and DAW Control buttons 

 

Sequence Mode

 lets you adjust various parameters affecting the Sequencer's overall 

function. Press the 

Sequence Button (Seq)

 to enter or exit this mode. When in Sequence 

Mode, the button will light up and 

Sequencer

 will appear in the display. In Sequence 

Mode, you can: 

 

select a new Sequence 

 

set the number of steps and bars in a Sequence 

 

edit the velocity of each pad (in each bank) for each step in a Sequence 

 

press a pad to see its steps (in the currently shown bar) represented by the lit-up 
Step Switches 

 

enter steps in a Sequence with specific and editable velocities for each pad 

 

erase all steps for a specific pad in a Sequence 

 

erase an entire Sequence 

 

disable the Sequencer (so the transport controls communicate with your DAW only 
rather than with the Sequencer) 

 

Select Mode

 lets you use the 

Step Switches

 to view or edit settings that affect the 

current Sequence (rather than the Sequencer's overall function). Press and hold the 

Select Button

 to enter this mode. When in Select Mode, the button will light up and 

Select Mode

 will appear in the display. In Select Mode, you can: 

 

press a pad and then release the 

Select Button

 to see its steps (in the currently 

shown bar) represented by the lit-up Step Switches (the same as pressing a pad in 
Sequence Mode)  

 

set which bar of the Sequence will be shown in the Step Switches. Press 

Step 

Switch 1

2

3

, or 

4

 to view the bar of that number, or press 

Step Switch 5 (Auto)

 if 

you always want the currently playing bar to be shown.  

 

copy and paste a pad's step pattern from one bar to another. Use 

Step Switches 7 

(Copy)

 and 

8 (Paste)

 to do this—please see the 

User Guide

 to learn about this 

feature. 

 

duplicate a pad's sound and step pattern immediately to the next bar. (You can do 
this multiple successive times to quickly copy the same pattern to multiple bars.) 
Use 

Step Switch 9 (Duplicate) 

to do this—please see the 

User Guide

 to learn about 

this feature. 

 

set the Time Division of the Sequence and Pad Roll Mode. Use 

Step Switches 12-

16

 to select a quarter-note (

1/4

), eighth-note (

1/8

), sixteenth-note (

1/16

), or thirty-

second-note (

1/32

) Time Division. You can use a triplet-based Time Division by 

pressing 

Step Switch 16 (Triplet)

Important:

 The Time Division setting affects both Sequence playback and Pad Roll 

Mode. In other words, the rate of a pad roll will always correspond to the 
Sequence's Time Division.
