Press PROG/RESET until the STEP LED is steady; you are now in program mode.
Press the white key that corresponds to the sequence you want to store in the current song step. The white key
LED corresponding to the selected step will light.
Press the STEP UP to advance to the next song step (or STEP DOWN to go back) and select the desired sequence
for that step.
Continue to program sequences into steps until they’re all programmed.
If you do not want to use all 16 steps in your song, you can use the LOOP button to make the step after the end
of your song a LOOP step. For example, if you only want 4 sequences to play in your song, program a LOOP into
step 5. When running, the sequencer will bounce off of step 5 and loop back to the first step of the sequence
programmed into the first step of your song.
Copying a Song or Sequence
When programming songs or sequences, sometimes you might want to copy an existing one so you can modify
it instead of starting over from scratch for each one. To do this, first make sure the keyboard display is in
SONG/SEQUENCE SELECT mode. Press and hold the song or sequence you want to copy from, then press and
hold the song or sequence you want to copy to. Hold the two buttons for about 1 second; the note LEDs will
flash to let you know when the copy has been performed.
The copy always goes from the FIRST -> SECOND button you press!
You can’t copy songs to sequences or sequences to songs
Clearing a Song or Sequence
All the songs and sequences in the sequencer always exist, so generally if you want to wipe out an existing song
or sequence you can just modify them or program something new over the top of them. If you do want to
“clear” a memory, however, you can.
Clearing a sequence sets all the steps to the lowest note. Clearing a song
sets all the steps to sequence 1.
To do this, first make sure the keyboard display is in SONG/SEQUENCE SELECT mode. Press and hold the song or
sequence you want to clear, then press and hold the RESET button. Hold the buttons for about 1 second; the
note LEDs will flash to let you know that the song or sequence has been cleared.
REST / SLUR
When
the sequencer gets to a REST step, it keeps the CV OUT the same and doesn’t fire the gate.
You can also
make a step a SLUR,
where it changes the CV OUT to a new note but still doesn’t fire the gate.
To program a SLUR on a step, hold down the REST button, then press the desired NOTE button for that
step. Both the REST and NOTE LEDs will light.
Pulse Out Timing
When you first program a note into a step, the gate timing is set to the default Timing mode (1) where the gate
follows the timing / width of the clock. You can also choose from 15 other gate timings, including ratchets:
