10.9.7. Lengths > 16 steps
To make your pattern longer than 16 steps will involve the Last Step button, the Page buttons
and the Page LEDs.
For example, let’s lengthen a 16-step pattern to 32 steps.
First, find a 16-step pattern. The 16 button should be the only one lit in the Page buttons
section.
Next, exit Page Follow mode by holding Shift and pressing the Last Step button. The button
should go dark.
Here’s what to do next:
• Hold the Last Step button until the end of this example.
• Press the 32 button once. Its LED will turn pink (white + red).
• Look at pad 16 ( it’s step 32 now). It will be blue, which means "end of pattern" in
this context.
• Release the Last Step button. Step 32 has now been defined as the last step in
the pattern.
Now hold Shift and press the Last Step button to enter Page Follow mode (the Last Step
button should be lit).
Next, press Play. You should see the Step buttons cycling through two sets of 16 steps, one
with data and one without.
You should also see the Page LEDs changing every 16 steps:
• Steps 1-16: Flashing white LED over Page 16, red LED over Page 32
• Steps 17-32: Red LED over Page 16, Flashing white LED over #32
If you decide you want more than 32 steps for this pattern, hold the Last Step button and
press the 48 or 64 button (whichever one you want). If you want an uneven length like 53
steps, press the appropriate pad and you’re ready to create.
♪
: It is possible to extend a sequencer pattern by copying the existing data to the end. To learn how
to do this, see the
section in this chapter.
10.9.8. Editing steps 17-32
If you want to focus on steps 17-32 while editing, press the 32 button. This will disable Page
Follow mode.
The Step buttons now show the status of steps 17-32. You can play the pattern while editing,
if you want; it will play all 32 steps, but the pads will stay focused on steps 17-32.
When you’re finished editing you can re-enter Page Follow mode if you like (Shift + Last
Step).
