1. Press PLAY to start the sequencer.
The PLAY button lights up. You won’t hear anything yet because nothing has been record-
ed.
2. Press SHIFT + PLAY to activate the metronome so you get a rhythmical reference.
You now hear the metronome indicating each beat, the first beat of each bar being indi-
cated by a different note.
3. Play along to the metronome to get a feel for the tempo.
4. If you’d like to increase or decrease the tempo to make your playing feel more comforta-
ble, press MAIN (above the display), then F3 (above the display), then turn the Control
encoder at the right of the display.
The tempo value is indicated in the display.
You can also adjust the volume of the metronome by pressing SHIFT + GRID and turn-
ing the Control encoder.
We recommend you to start with a simple sequence using a few Sounds only (e.g., the
kick and the snare on pads 1 and 2). You will have the possibility to enrich your Pattern
later!
When you feel ready, start the recording:
1. With the sequencer playing, press REC to enter recording mode.
REC lights up.
2. Play the desired rhythm on the pads. By default, the recorded Pattern is one bar long.
Your playing is recorded and directly played in loop. As long as you don’t press PLAY
again, the new Pattern keeps playing.
3. Press REC again to stop recording.
