To delete an event, simply click it. Click and hold the mouse anywhere in the Event area
and move the cursor to quickly delete series of events.
Deleting Events/Notes on the Controller
Your controller provides you with several tools to delete events from the current Pattern.
Quick Deleting Events or Notes
The quickest and easiest way to delete events is the following:
►
Press EVENTS + ERASE + the desired pad to delete from the Pattern all events for that
Sound (if pads are in Group mode) or all notes at that pitch for the focused Sound (if
pads are in Keyboard mode).
For more information on Pad modes, please refer to section
↑
5.1.1, The Pad View in the
Software .
As soon as you hold EVENTS + ERASE , some pads light up to indicate where there is some-
thing to delete:
▪
If your pads are in Group mode, the lit pads show you the Sounds for which the Pattern
contains events.
▪
If your pads are in Keyboard mode, the lit pads show you the pitches (of the focused
Sound) for which the Pattern contains events.
In other terms you don’t need to press any unlit pad, since there are no events to delete there.
While holding
EVENTS + ERASE you can press several pads to delete their events.
If you accidentally deleted events, press UNDO (in the EDIT section) to undo it!
Deleting the Selected Events or Notes
Once you have selected particular events (see
↑
7.4.3, Selecting Events/Notes for more on
this), you can delete them from the Pattern:
