Buttons and Navigation
To navigate, change to other screens, edit values and more you use the Buttons.
On the top line there are 6 ‘half’ buttons which are used to switch to other screens.
Pressing only the buttons the following screens can be arrived:
-
SEQUENCER
→ For the main sequencing and pattern order, song structure etc.
-
PATTERN
→ The pattern data where all the notes, gates and effects are
-
PATCH
→ Is for either the stored patches (macros), the current values of the recent track or the
track setup.
-
TABLE
→ Tables are like a sequencer in the sequencer which can run synchronized or
independent from the main sequence. It is able to manipulate the main sequence in multiple ways.
-
AUTOMATE
→ Automators / Modulators which can manipulate many parameters through LFO’s
etc. With this button a 2
nd
screen for the envelopes can also be accessed. (pressing the Automator
button switches between the Automator or the envelope screen)
-
PROJECT
→ For all project related settings
You can reach those screens by pressing the corresponding buttons. (One footnote here, you can’t
enter the pattern screen if there was no pattern created first).
Those button have also a 2
nd
function which can be reached by pressing the Shift key together
(followed) by the other keys. Those are:
MARK
- To start the marking of content on the screens. Press again to copy the marked values to
the clipboard.
COPY
– Copy earlier marked (or cutted) content
DELETE
– Delete current value or marked content (acts also as a cut function)
RECORD
– to start/stop recording
NERD
– use for different functions (like a context menu)
SETUP
– Enter the Setup screen for non-project related general settings
Further there are the buttons on the bottom left:
START
– Start sequencer or trigger a pattern
STOP
– Stop a pattern (stop the sequencer in combination with SHIFT). If the sequencer is
stopped, then
SHIFT+STOP
executes a ‘Stop All Sounds’ function where all Gates are reset, all
Notes stopped and a Reset signal generated if the clock output is a regular modular clock.
Also for the audio tracks, pressing the stop button on one of these while this track is stopped will
also stop all sound for this track.
