3.5. Color mode: Instrument level

It is possible for Color mode always to be active for one or more instruments, if you prefer

the colored sound. This is also a quick way to audition the Color effect for each instrument.

Don't worry; this is a non-destructive experiment! We can disable the Color effect as easily

as it was enabled without affecting the pattern data for that instrument track.

Here's how:

• Let's use the Kick drum for the first experiment.
• Play the pad and listen to the instrument without Color first.
• Hold the Color button
• Tap the instrument pad until it turns orange
• Release the Color button
• Play the pad and listen for how the instrument has changed.

In the case of the Kick drum, the Color effect is Drive. This provides an independent

distortion circuit that is available at the Individual Out for the Kick drum.

It's a simple thing to turn off the Color effect for the Kick drum again:

• Hold the Color button
• Tap the Kick drum pad until it turns dark
• Release the Color button

Next, start the experiment again, trying each instrument. The silkscreened labels under each

pad will tell you what its dedicated Color effect is. You can also refer back to the

Color chart

[p.34]

for more information.

Now: You can leave any of the instruments constantly in Color mode, if you like. But what

you'll lose if you do that is the ability to have a non-colored event on that instrument track.

So for the greatest flexibility in the overall sound, you may prefer to apply Color mode at the

track level.

3.6. Color mode: Track level

As stated earlier, there are

four different versions of each instrument [p.29]

. Each version

can be used in an instrument track, as long as Color mode has not been left On for that

instrument. So for the time being, let's defeat Color mode for at least one instrument: the

Kick drum.

To disable Color mode for the Kick drum:

• Hold the Color button
• Tap the Kick drum pad until it turns dark
• Release the Color button

Now, let's discover the full strength of the Color feature!
