RANDOMIZE GATE REPEATS PER
STEP:
By holding down the PROB BUTTON
and then the RPT BUTTON until the
REPEAT button is flashing, the sliders
on that channel will randomize repeats
with the slider value setting the
maximum number of possible repeat
gates per step.
RANDOMIZE GATE DELAY PER
STEP:
By holding down the PROB BUTTON
and then the DLY BUTTON until the
DELAY button is flashing, with the slider
value setting the maximum delay per
step.
FREEZE: This gate input is active high.
Inserting an external gate will freeze
randomization. You can also FREEZE
by holding down the RECALL button for
2 seconds and it will flash and stay held
until you press it again for 2 seconds.
NOTE: If a preset is active and you
engage FREEZE, it will lock in all the
parameters for that preset. So every
step that gets triggered will always
trigger while freeze is on (and low
probability steps that do not trigger will
always NOT trigger). If you then save
while freeze is engaged and then recall
that preset, it will always play through
the same way as saved (without the
freeze/Recall PB flashing) unless
sliders on individual steps/parameters
are re-adjusted. So freeze is effectively
saved without being indicated that it is.
SONG SEQUENCE DIRECTION: to
adjust the song direction, hold the SONG
button while adjusting the\ “SEQUENCE
MODE” slider. FORWARD, REVERSE,
PENDULUM AND RANDOM directions
are available.
