entire pattern, or the entire track should be added (or removed) from the

group.

For example, to add all the steps of pattern #3 to group #1:

1. Navigate to group #1.

2. Navigate to any step in pattern #3 that is NOT a member of group

#1.

3. Focus the PATTERN display.

4. Press the DE(SELECT) button.

And to remove all the steps of pattern #3 from group #1 just press the

DE(SELECT) button again. Notice how the selection state of the focused

step determines whether the whole pattern will be added or removed from

the group. In other words, whatever happens to the focused step will also

happen to all the other steps in the focused pattern. This same behavior

applies to entire tracks when we have the TRACK display focused.

3.1.2 Copy a Selection
If you press the COPY button while the GROUP display is focused then

the current group's selection (not the steps themselves) is copied to the

clipboard. At this point the GROUP display LED will start ashing. You

can now navigate to another group and paste the copied selection with the

INSERT button. The pasted selection of steps will combine with the existing

selection of steps in the target group, eectively creating the union of the

two sets.

3.1.3 Delete a Selection
If you press the DELETE button while the GROUP display is focused then

all steps are removed from the focused group.

3.1.4 Rotate a Selection
The ROTATE button will shift a group's selection later in the sequence by

one step. So if, step #4 and step #12 are selected then after pressing the

ROTATE button, step #5 and step #13 are selected. Holding the INVERT

button while pressing the ROTATE button will shift the selection earlier by

one step.
