Steppy 3U Manual
Select Mode functions are indicated by text labels with black backgrounds. Notice the
four top-left buttons are used for track selection, and that the Track A button is currently
lit (indicating Play Mode controls Track A).
7.
Press the button corresponding to Track B (causing it to light instead of Track A), then
press the black SELECT button again to exit Select Mode, and return to Play Mode.
8.
The 16 multifunction buttons now control Track B, so start punching out patterns for your
snare module.
Save the Preset
1.
Press the red EDIT button at the bottom right to enter Edit mode.
Edit functions are labelled to the right of the right column of buttons.
2.
Press the SAVE button (right column, one up from the bottom).
Presets are saved into one of 8 locations, which map to the 8 buttons in the left column.
If a button has a solid red light, it means a preset is already saved in that ‘slot,’ and if you
select it, you will overwrite that preset. The flashing red button indicates the currently
loaded preset, which you are actively modifying. If a button is off, then the preset ‘slot’ is
currently empty.
6.
Decide which of the 8 preset slots you wish to save your work to, and press its
corresponding left-column button.
All the buttons will flash briefly to confirm that you’ve saved the preset.
Next Step
This has been a very simple and rudimentary tutorial designed only to help you get
comfortable with some operational basics and navigation. Steppy features numerous
additional techniques for modifying and fine-tuning your tracks, be it through pattern
length adjustments; gate length changes; clock division; swing; gate probabilities, or
playback and performance features such as the Page Follow ( ) and Loopy (
)
settings. All will be discussed, in depth, later in this manual.
So this next tutorial has but a single step:
1.
Read the rest of the manual.
Knowledge is good.
