STEP/PATTERN COPY STEP CLEARING
When designing a sequence, you may want to copy and then paste steps or certain parts of
the pattern. In order to copy up to 16 steps, push and hold the SHIFT button and push
the COPY button. The sequencer will advance to copy mode, and you can select a step or
a series of steps (push and hold the first step in the series and push the last one) that you want
to copy. All information (note, gate, accent, slide, etc) in the steps is copied. To return to the
step enter menu, push the BACK/NOTE encoder. In order to copy the entire pattern (all steps
in the pattern, even it's longer than 16 steps), simply push the SELECT/GATE encoder.
For a single step copy, if, for example, you have designed a nice sounding kick drum sound with
a pitch envelope on step 1, and wish to copy-paste exactly the same settings to more steps,
there is a shortcut: push and hold the step button you want to copy, and push the <BAR button
(just above the COPY button). All information in the relevant step is copied. The same shortcut
with BAR> works for single step PASTE - please, refer to the STEP/PATTERN PASTE chapter.
You can instantly copy the entire pattern and paste it into another slot. To do so, initiate the
PATTERN menu - push and hold the SHIFT button and push the PATTERN button. Now push and
hold the step button relevant to the pattern you want to copy and push the <BAR button. Then
push the step button of the pattern paste destination and push the BAR> button. The pattern is
now copied to the new destination.
Even though the easiest way to clear steps is to just turn off the step, the DB-01 has more
advanced clear options (e.g. clearing specific parameters of the steps) implemented. While in
the main step enter mode, push and hold the SHIFT button and push the CLEAR button to
access the clear menu! The active steps will be visible, and now you can clear individual steps
or series of steps by pushing several step buttons in a row. For example, to instantly clear
steps 5 to 8, push and hold the step 5 button and push the step 8 button. All steps from 5 to 8
will be cleared. In order to clear
entire pattern, simply push the SELECT/GATE encoder.
You can also clear a per step parameters ONLY (this applies to accent, slide, modulation track
and pitch envelope; gate and note clear is performed only by turning steps off). To clear the
Accent track, push SHIFT+ACCENT (initiate the accent enter mode) and then push and hold the
SHIFT button and push the CLEAR button. You will see 30% dimmed step buttons with accents
activated. Now push one or a series of step buttons to clear accents only. The same goes for
other parameters – you first need to enter the relevant mode (SHIFT+MOD for modulation
track, for example) and then enter the CLEAR mode (SHIFT+CLEAR) to clear the parameter
settings. To return to the step enter menu, push the BACK/NOTE encoder.
