You should also observe the LEDs associated with the various synth controls: with most of the
demo Sessions, you will see these changing in brightness as the Session plays, indicating that
the controls were adjusted in real time as the Patterns were programmed. This is Circuit Mono
Station’s Automation at work - a very powerful feature.
Later in the manual, we explain in detail how each of these Pattern and synth features can be
programmed or configured.
Loading and Saving Sessions
When you power Circuit Mono Station on, the Session played will be the last one used when it
was powered off. The first time you power it on out of the box, it will play Session 1, which will
contain one of the demos described above.
To load a different Session, you use
Sessions View
. Press
Sessions

to open this:
Each pad corresponds to one of the memory slots. The pad’s colour indicates the slot’s status:
• Dim blue – slot is empty
• Bright blue – slot contains either a Session saved by the user or a factory demo Session.
(Note that bright blue is the default – you can change the colour to help identify saved
sessions – see below.)
• White – the currently selected Session (only one pad will be white)
If you’re still experimenting, you can select a different factory demo to listen to and play around
with. You can jump between saved Sessions while in Play mode.
Sessions loaded when the sequencer is not running will play at the tempo
that was in force when the Session was saved.
Sessions loaded while the sequencer is running will play at the tempo that is
currently set. This means that you can recall different Sessions sequentially
with the confidence that the tempo will remain constant.
There’s nothing special about the slots containing factory demo Sessions: you can overwrite
these if you wish.
