The sequence playlist on the left lists of the “steps” of a song.
Each step has (in columns, left to right):
the step number (each song can contain up to 999 steps)
a sequence number and name
how many times the sequence plays (each step can play
up to 999 times; set it to Hold [the lowest/minimum
value] to set the sequence to repeat indefinitely until you
stop playback)
the tempo of the sequence
the number of bars the step occupies (based on how
many times it plays)
Each used sequence is assigned to a pad. Empty pads
correspond to unused sequences. Use the Pad Bank buttons
to access the sequences assigned to pads in other banks.
To insert a step:
1. Tap a step in the sequence playlist after which you want to insert a step.
2. Tap Insert in the lower-right corner of the screen.
Alternatively, recorda song using the pads:
Note: The sequences or song will not play back as you use the pads to create your song in this way. Pressing the
pads just enters their corresponding sequences as steps.
1. Press Rec or Overdub to “record-arm” the song.
2. Press or tap the pad that corresponds to the first sequence you want to use. That sequence will appear in the
sequence playlist as the first step.
3. Repeat Step 2 for each additional step you want to add to the sequence playlist. Press or tap a pad multiple
times to add to the number of times it plays.
4. Press Stop to stop “recording.”
