A phrase contains 16 steps of notes with volume, instrument number, and 3 command
eect columns. By default each step represents a 16th note in time, but can be altered
by dening the number of ticks per step in the Groove View.
The rst column “N” is the note with its current octave spanning 11 octaves. It cov-
ers the entire 128 note range with “A-4” representing A4 440 Hz. The value can be
changed in semitones using [EDIT]+[LEFT or RIGHT] or by octave using [EDIT]+[UP
or DOWN]. The next column “V” is the volume which determines the loudness of the
corresponding note from 00 (silence) to 7F (maximum volume) with a default of 64. The
“I” column species the instrument number to play. Leaving it empty (“--”) allow notes
to be changed without the instrument retriggering. You can press [EDIT] twice on this
column to choose a new/unused instrument number, or press [SHIFT]+[OPTION then
EDIT] to copy the contents of the current instrument to a new number for editing.
The three “FX” columns are for placing commands that aect the sequence, notes, or
instruments in dierent ways. The commands available are determined by the type of
instrument that is currently being used. To see a helpful view for selecting and placing
commands use [EDIT]+[UP or DOWN] which will launch the Eects Command Help
view.
An asterisk next to the phrase number (“PHRASE 00*“) indicates that the phrase is used
elsewhere in the chain or song.
