Step Sequencer – Editing Sequence Patterns
49 Waldorf Q User’s Manual
Holding Notes over More Than One Step
Although you can change the length of each step individually, it might be easier to use the Hold
function instead to keep the overall length of the sequence pattern.
If a step is set to Hold , it holds the notes that are programmed in the previous step. If the previous step
is also set to
Hold
, the notes that were held on that step are still held. You can program up to 31 steps
to hold the notes that you’ve programmed in one step.
If the first step of the first bank is set to
Hold
, the last steps of the last played bank are held.
☞
To program a Hold event:
1. Select any number of steps.
2. Press
Hold
.
���
Make sure that a Hold event doesn’t follow a paused step because then you wouldn’t hear
anything.
Limiting the Audible Range of the Sequence to One Bank
The *visible* range of the step sequence is limited to one bank automatically as soon as you select a
step or turn a dial. However, you might also want to listen only to one bank to find mistakes.
☞
To limit the audible range to one bank:
• Hold Shift and press one of the Step 1-8 ... Step 25-32 buttons. The Bank Select LED
flashes rapidly to indicate that you listen only to this particular bank of steps.
To deactivate this feature, perform the above action again.
���
Limiting the audible range to one bank is only a temporary function. It isn’t meant to set the
length of the sequence pattern. To change the length of the sequence pattern, use the
Pattern
Length function.
Changing Modulation Signal Values for Selected Steps
One of the most powerful features of a step sequencer is the ability to send out modulation signals for
each step like Cutoff or Velocity. This and more can be done with the rotary controls above the
number buttons.
You can change Cutoff and Velocity for all selected steps at once. The changes are relative meaning
that if you decrease the value of one step by 10, the values of the other selected steps are also
decreased by 10. Further Controllers can be adjusted by using the
Control Value
Parameter you can
choose in the Option menu (please read additionally the chapter „Option Line Parameter“).
If you turn a control of a step that isn’t selected, the value of this step of the current bank is changed
and the visible bank is locked as soon as you turn a control.
☞
To change the modulation signal values of selected steps:
1. Select any number of steps.
2. Press the Control Select button until the parameter that you want to change is shown.
