The INIT button
Reset a parameter
The INIT button will reset any parameter to its
default value: just hold [INIT] and press the
Control button next to that parameter’s value.
The Control button will light up next to any
parameter that has been edited, which helps
you know which one to press.
Initialize a Module
You can reset the parameters for an entire
Module using a similar method:
• Hold [INIT].
• Press the Access button for the desired
module.
• Confirm the decision by pressing [INIT]
again.
• If you decide not the initialize, press [EXIT]
to cancel the procedure.
Initialize a Patch
If you want to build an entire patch from
scratch, press [INIT] twice in a row. This will
erase the contents of the Edit buffer, so be
sure to save any edits you don’t want to lose.
The RANDOM button
If you’re the adventurous type, you will love
this button! It can randomize the value of any
parameter, any module, a single patch, or even
an entire Multi.
Randomize a parameter
To randomize a single parameter, hold
[RANDOM] and press the Control button next
to that parameter’s value. The Control button
of every available parameter will light up, so
you’ll know which ones not to press (the dark
ones won’t do anything).
Randomize a Module
You can randomize the parameters for an
entire Module using a similar method:
• Hold [RANDOM].
• Press the Access button for the desired
module.
• Confirm the decision by pressing
[RANDOM] again.
• If you decide not the randomize, press
[EXIT] to cancel the procedure.
Random Patch generation
You can even randomize an entire patch in
Single or Multi mode, including the Effects!
Sometimes the results are strange, but that’s
okay; just try it again. Once you get something
interesting, you can save it like that or tweak it
as needed.
In Single mode there are two ways to
randomize the patch:
• Press [RANDOM] twice. The Left display
shows “GENERATE” after the first press, and
after the second press a random selection
of values is generated.
• Hold [SHIFT] and press [RANDOM] twice.
The Left display shows “PATCHRND” after
the first press, and after the second press a
random selection of values is pulled from
other patches.
In Multi mode you can randomize an entire
Multi, randomize only the Upper or Lower part
inside the Multi, or randomize any module
inside one of the parts as you would do in
Single mode.
There are several ways to do this. But to
summarize, you can either
• Select [Upper] or [Lower] and then press
[RANDOM], or
• Hold [RANDOM] and then press [Upper] or
[Lower].
Either way the results are the same: the
selected item will be randomized.
But we left [Multi] out of the examples above,
because those are different operations which
provide very different results.
• If you select [Multi] and press [RANDOM]
twice:
the parts inside the Multi are randomized,
but the Multi settings are not: Mode,
balance, octave ranges, Arp setting, and
controller settings are untouched.
• If you hold [RANDOM], press [Multi], and
press [RANDOM] again:
the settings of the Multi are randomized
