Mini-Sequencer
The ASSIGNMENTS section of the mini-sequencer is one of its most important sections. It is used to select the
source of control signals for the two SEMs.
Each SEM can be controlled by one of the following sources:
• the keyboard
• the Mini-Sequencer
• a sample/hold source
In addition, the keyboard can be used to transpose the sequence when the Mini-Sequencer is controlling one or
both SEMs.
The Mini-Sequencer functions in three modes:
• Panel mode
• Sequence mode
• Song mode
