The buttons of the user-interface are sorted by function into three sections. The
Matrix
claims
the largest space. It consists of 12 lines and 16 columns. The matrix serves to program
sequences and to display and edit different types of MIDI-data. Depending on the mode being
selected, it may also display the progression of different sequences.
To the left of the matrix, 12
function-buttons
are placed in vertical order. These serve
different purposes, depending on the mode being selected: For example, you select, which
MIDI-data are going to be displayed or edited. This may be notes, velocity- or controller-data
for example. The four lowermost buttons may be assigned to carry out copy-functions. In
certain modes, the function-buttons serve to select tracks or as mute-buttons for those.
On the right hand side, there are buttons to carry out
control-functions
. The topmost three
buttons select the main view resp. the MODE. There is a MENU for each MODE. This contains
additional parameters that can be edited using the navigation-cursor and that will be shown
in the display.
The lowermost three buttons are used for
transport control
.
