6. PATTERN MODE
You get into Pattern mode by pressing the PATT button. You can program and play patterns in
Pattern mode just as in Perform mode, the big difference being that you can store and play back
all instrument sound parameters for every single step.
Drum kits cannot be recalled or edited in Pattern mode.
6.1 Pattern Play Mode (Pattern Playback)
Pattern playback functions are the same as in Perform mode. The UP/DOWN buttons select a new
pattern number.
If the XBase gets Midi-Programm-Change orders, the patterns are changed.
6.2 Pattern WRITE mode (Recording patterns)
The basic recording functions are the same as in Perform mode. The UP/DOWN buttons select a
new pattern number.
6.3 Recording Sound Changes in Pattern Write Mode
6.3.1 Individual Step Edit
This function lets you assign new sound parameter values to one or more steps by turning a sound
control knob.
To switch a step into edit mode, hold down the instrument button (BASS DRUM, SNARE
DRUM, CLOSED HI HAT or OPEN HI HAT) of the instrument you want to edit and press the
step button (1-16) you want to edit. The step button light will start blinking.
It is possible to edit multiple steps at the same time.
NOTE: If the step you want to edit is already selected (step button is lit), the first button press will
deselect it, also if the instrument button is held down. In this case you should press the step button
a second time to switch it into edit mode.
Now turn the sound programming knobs of the selected instrument to until you have reached a
satisfactory setting.
To switch off edit mode for a particular step, press the respective (blinking) step button as often
as is necessary to switch its light off.
6.3.2 Track Record Mode
With the Track Record mode function all steps of the current pattern can be edited.
Hold down the button of the instrument you wish to edit and press the WRITE button to activate
the Track Record mode functions. The WRITE button starts blinking.
Now turn one of the sound control knobs of the selected instrument. This replaces that knob’s
parameter values in all the steps it passes over with new values.
If you want to record continuous sound parameter changes, do the following:
After completing a successful pass through the pattern, immediately press the WRITE button
again to exit Track Record mode., because a renewed run through the pattern would overwrite the
settings you just recorded..
