Saving a sequence
When the sequencer is not playing back and the monotribe is not pro-
ducing sound, hold down the REC button until the REC LED stops
blinking and goes dark.
The saved sequence will be loaded at the next power-up. To change
this, you’ll need to adjust the settings located in the Global menu (p.16).
Never turn off the power while data is being saved. Doing so may
destroy the internal data.
The saved settings are remembered even when the power is off.
