10. THE SEQUENCER
38
If a pattern contains more than 16 sequencer steps, the <PATTERN PAGE> LEDs will indicate this. When
a pattern is playing, the currently active pattern page is indicated by a blinking, full-bright, <PATTERN
PAGE> LED.
10.1.3 TEMPO
Pattern tempo is global and will affect all patterns. Pattern tempo is set in the TEMPO menu. Press
[TEMPO]
to open it.
Use the
TRACK LEVEL
knob to change the tempo setting. The
[UP]
and
[DOWN]
key changes the deci-
mal part of the tempo. To tap a tempo setting, hold the
[FUNC]
key and tap the
[TEMPO]
key in a steady
rhythm. After four consecutive taps, the average tempo of the taps will be calculated. By continuing
tapping, the average tempo will keep on updating.
The tempo can temporarily be shifted up or down by 10% by pressing the
[LEFT]
or
[RIGHT]
arrow keys.
When the key is released, the BPM will revert back to the original setting.
When in the TEMPO menu, holding
[FUNC]
while turning the
TRACK LEVEL
knob will not change the
tempo to the selected value until the
[FUNC]
key is released. “PREP” is shown in the lower left corner of
the screen.
Tempo shift is very handy when manually syncing the Analog Four MKII to a turntable or an external
sound source. Note that you do not need to be in the TEMPO menu to perform tempo shifting.
10.2 PATTERN MODES
When changing patterns, different modes affecting the way the active pattern will be changed exist. Press
[FUNC]
+
[BANK A–D]
to select PATTERN mode. The <PATTERN MODE> LEDs indicate which mode is
selected. There are four PATTERN modes.
SEQUENTIAL
will change patterns after the currently playing pattern reaches its end. This mode is the
default mode.
DIRECT START
will immediately change patterns. The new pattern will start playing from the beginning.
DIRECT JUMP
will immediately change patterns. The new pattern will start playing from the position
where the previous pattern left off.
TEMP JUMP
works a little bit differently from the other PATTERN modes. It is used like this:
1. Press
[FUNC]
+
[BANK D]
to arm TEMP JUMP PATTERN mode. The Temp Jump LED starts to flash
to indicate that Temp Jump mode is armed.
2. Select a new pattern. The Temp Jump LED is now lit to indicate that Temp Jump mode is active The
pattern will change immediately and the new pattern will start playing from the position where the pre-
vious pattern left off. It will play the new pattern once to the end and then revert back to the pattern
that was playing before the change. Once the sequencer has reverted back to the earlier pattern, then
TEMP JUMP mode is no longer active
You can also use TEMP JUMP mode when you are in CHAIN mode and then the pattern you change to
will instead replace the current pattern in the chain. For example, say that you have a chain set up like
this: A01>A03>A04>A02. When the chain is playing, and you are in TEMP JUMP mode, change pattern
to A16 while pattern A03 is playing. The pattern will then immediately change to A16 and once A16 has
ended then the chain will continue to play from pattern A04.
10.3 EDITING A PATTERN
The Analog Four MKII offers two main modes of inputting trigs when editing or creating a pattern, GRID
RECORDING mode and LIVE RECORDING mode. In these modes, two types of trigs can be entered: note
trigs and lock trigs.
