SEQUENCER DATA STRUCTURE
EDIT PATTERN, TRACK, STEP
SCENE
The notes, velocity and modulation data are stored in a SCENE. A SCENE consists of 4
patterns A-D and a FILL pattern. This also includes the settings of all LFOs and the set-
tings of the function menus (Hold, Mute, Variation, Velo/Mod, Quantize, Shuffle,
Trackshift and Laststep). A maximum of 50 scenes can be saved in the TAKT.
When switching on, the scene preset in the SETUP menu is automatically loaded (AUTO-
LOAD “ALd”).
PATTERN
There are 5 loaded patterns within a scene. The structure of all patterns is the same.
Each pattern can be up to 4 bars long (this applies to all patterns). Each pattern has 8
tracks with a maximum resolution of one MIDI tick. That's 96 steps per measure. Only
one pattern can be played at a time. The pattern changes either to the next bar or “on the
fly” immediately (can be set in the SETUP menu pattern change “PtC” either with “bAr”
to the next bar or “FrE” Free=immediate). The following functions are available for orga-
nizing: delete a pattern, copy a pattern or swap two patterns.
FILL PATTERN
The FILL pattern can always immediately interrupt a pattern that is currently running. As
long as the FILL pattern is held down, only this pattern runs; when the button is released,
the previous pattern runs. Switch to a different pattern (than the one before FILL) by pres-
sing the new target pattern while FILL is active.
TRACK
Each pattern consists of 8 tracks. A recorded note is played analogously as GATE via the
GATE output socket with the velocity (volume) on the CV output socket (via MIDI as a
NoteOn/NoteOff event). Each track can send and receive a specified note on a separate
MIDI channel.
A note number must be set in the MIDI menu for each track. This note number is the
same globally for all scenes.
The following functions are available for organizing track data:
delete a track, copy a track or swap two tracks.

CLEAR FUNCTION (clear data)
While holding down the CLEAR button, press an additional key:
Track keys 1-8: deletes the step (trigger/gate) at the current position while the
sequencer is running
(analogous to SHOTS/SINGLE record) unquantized
Function keys 1-8: deletes the corresponding track as follows:
delete all triggers/gates, switch off MUTE+HOLD,
TRACK-SHIFT reset to 0, modulation track remains,
Last step remains
Pattern keys: deletes the entire pattern, but only at STOP!
COPY FUNCTION (copy data)
While holding down the COPY button, press additional key combination for:
Copy Pattern:
Use the pattern keys to press source and destination one after the other.
Copy Track:
Use the track buttons to press source and destination one after the other.
SWAP FUNCTION (swap data)
While holding down both COPY+CLEAR keys, press an additional key combination for:
Swap 2 patterns:
Use the pattern keys to press source and destination one after the other.
Swap 2 tracks:
Use the track buttons to press source and destination one after the other.
