same time. Read more in the section Setting Up the Pedal Inputs(https://alternatemode.com/online-

5.4. Warp Mode
Warp Mode gives the malletKAT the ability to repeat any pattern in real time. The amount of repeats is
controllable, along with the tempo. Besides the echo being repeated, it is also possible to change the pitch of
each of the echo’s by plus or minus 12 semitones.
This means that each note struck can create a short musical sequence. To make this even more interesting,
instead of just playing back the notes evenly, we have added 8 rhythmic patterns that superimpose themselves
over the real notes played.
Configuring a User Kit to use Warp Mode requires a few steps. Full details are found in the section Using Warp
Mode(https://alternatemode.com/online-docs/malletkat/#using-warp-mode)
