MOTION LENGTH Control

Each motion type can have up to 64 steps. But it can sound interesting to play fewer steps. By turning 

down  the  MOTION  LENGTH  control  you  can  play   from 1-64 of   the  total   steps  in the  motion.  The 

motions will repeat once the end of the motion (or the current length setting) is reached.
