The function pads offer four default actions:
Mute – allows you to mute each of the sequencer tracks separately by pressing these
pads.
Solo – allows you to solo each of the sequencer tracks separately by pressing these
pads.
Variation – gives you access to track Variation mode (explained in detail in a dedicated
section below).
Select – use these to select all steps on the corresponding track.

View Controller
The rightmost 8 x 4 grid section of function pads can also serve as a configurable note input
controller. Hit the
View
function key and they will change color to yellow. The upper row of
pads allows you to change the octaves and indicates if you’re in audio (green) or MIDI mode
(violet). You can switch their layout between Keyboard and Grid type in the Main menu.
The View controller can be used as an input source in the following scenarios:
When no step or track is selected, the Note controller will use the ‘work step’ with its
previously selected parameter values.
You can press and hold one or more of the steps and input the desired note.
In the Live Rec mode, you can record notes by playing them in real-time from pads
while at least one track is selected. If you want to record chords as many tracks as
there are notes in a chord need to be selected.
In the Main menu Settings you can select if the View input controller will record notes
to empty steps only, or will be overdubbing the existing steps.
Important:
The View controller works both with internal and external MIDI instruments.
The View controller can also be influenced by the musical
scales filter
, which you can
enable and configure in the Main menu.
View note input controller is available in Steps/Patterns/Perform modes.
