Inserting notes
You can add synth notes to a pattern by selecting the step where the note is to go by holding
down the pattern pad for that step, pressing the required performance pad, and then releasing
the pattern pad. You don’t have to press Record. Now when you run the pattern, you will find
that the note has been added.
You can also insert notes by reversing this sequence: you can select the note first by pressing
and holding a performance pad and then pressing a Step pad to assign the note to that Step.
Remember that you can add notes in any octave, but the octave you select will determine the
octave displayed on the performance pads, so if all your existing notes are in the mid-range
and you want to add a bass note, the performance pads will not display any of the higher notes
once you’ve selected a lower octave.
Other note alterations
If you want to change the note at a Step to a different note, simply assign the new note as
described above, which will automatically cancel the previous one, as only one note may
be assigned to each Step. The procedure needs to be done this way to retain the Gate and
Velocity values for the original note. If you delete the original note and then enter the revised
note, you will find that the new note has the default values for Gate and Velocity.
You can also alter the duration (Gate) and Velocity value of individual notes. These topics are
covered in a subsequent section of the Guide.
Clear and Duplicate
Circuit Mono Station’s Clear and Duplicate ( Shift + Clear ) functions can be applied to Patches,
Patterns and Sessions as well as the individual steps in a Pattern. Here we are concerned only
with Clearing and Duplicating steps.
Clearing Steps
You can also delete assigned synth notes from a step using the Clear button
13
. This has
the advantage that you don’t have to search through the octaves to find a note that isn’t in the
currently-displayed octave.
Press and hold Clear ; the button will illuminate bright red to confirm Clear Mode. Now press the
step pad; it will turn red and the note for the selected oscillator at this step will be deleted. The
step pad will revert to its dim “unassigned” illumination when this has been done. Release the
Clear button to exit Clear Mode; its illumination will return to dim blue to confirm that the clear
procedure is complete.
The Clear button has an additional function in
