Following the Playback Position on the Controller
To follow the playhead position in the Event area during playback:
1. Press NAVIGATE to enter Navigate mode.
2. Press Button 8 (FOLLOW).
→ Both Button 8 and the FOLLOW label light up. The software follows the playback position
of the song.
The Follow function is disabled as soon as you manually scroll to another position in the song.
The Follow function simultaneously affects various displays in the software and on your con-
troller:
â–ª In the software the Follow function affects both the Pattern Editor and the Arranger.
â–ª On your controller the Follow function affects the displays in Scene mode when Arrange
submode is enabled. Additionally, in Step mode the Follow function affects the pads: With
Follow enabled, when the playhead has gone across all 16 steps shown by the pads on your
controller, the pads switch to the next 16 steps of the Pattern, if any. See section ↑11.3,
Recording Patterns with the Step Sequencer for more information on Step mode.
The follow function does not work if the playback position is outside the selected Pattern.
11.1.4 Jumping to Another Playback Position in the Pattern
You can use the timeline above the Event area to set the playback to the desired position. For
example, this can be useful to check a particular transition between events in your Pattern
without waiting for the whole Loop Range to be looped.
In the timeline above the Event area, a playhead (the little white vertical line) indicates the
current play position in the Pattern.
