Steppy 3U Manual
4. SWING button
When in Edit mode, press this button to edit the swing
percentage for the selected Track (each track has its
own swing rate). Swing options conform to MPC
“standard” (with the addition of 78%), and apply the
delay to every other step in a pattern (thus, causing it
to ‘swing’). Swing editing is available when the
SWING button glows
red
.
When editing swing values, the left column of buttons
set the values from 50% (no swing) on the top button,
to 78% swing on the bottom button.
To set the Swing amount for the selected track, simply
press the left column button corresponding to the
desired value. If you press
and hold
the value button,
you apply the Swing setting to all four tracks
simultaneously.
In this example, Swing is set to 54%.
NOTE: If a track employs both a Swing amount and a
Delay amount (discussed below), those delays will be
summed. Gate lengths are maintained, however if a
step is swung and/or delayed so much that the
requested gate length would overlap into the next
step, then Steppy automatically shortens the gate to
insure every step triggers.
