4. Press F2 (DUPL).
→ A copy of the Pattern is inserted right after the original Pattern in the Pattern bank — all
following Patterns are shifted to the next slot.
Copy and Paste a Pattern
While the duplicating method described above is the quickest one, you can also copy a Pattern
to the Pattern slot of your choice via the DUPLICATE button of your controller:
1. Press and hold PATTERN to enter Pattern mode.
2. Press and hold DUPLICATE.
3. Press the pad of the Pattern you want to copy.
4. Press the target pad for the Pattern copy.
→ The Pattern is copied to the target pad.
This procedure has following benefits:
▪ You can paste the copy into the Pattern slot of your choice — empty or not. If the target
Pattern slot already contains a Pattern, it will be replaced by the copied Pattern.
â–ª You can select the target slot in another Pattern bank: After you have selected the source
Pattern, switch to the desired Pattern bank using SHIFT + Left/Right Arrow button before
you select the target Pattern slot.
â–ª Last but not least, this command is also available outside the Pattern mode: Simply press
and hold DUPLICATE + PATTERN (instead of DUPLICATE alone in Pattern mode) before
selecting the source and target slots!
Please note that the copy-paste described here affects the Pattern as a whole. You can also copy-
paste particular events within the Pattern or between Patterns. See ↑11.4.4, Editing Selected
Events/Notes for more on this.
11.7.9 Moving Patterns
You can reorder Patterns via drag and drop in the software. It can be helpful to organize your
Patterns more conveniently (e.g., to bring together variations of the same rhythm).
