Reducing the length of a Pattern might exclude the last events from the Pattern. However
these events are not deleted: They simply appear darker in the Event area and will be included
back into the Pattern next time you extend it.
Events beyond the Pattern’s end can be edited in the software. However, you cannot edit them
from the controller. See section ↑7.4, Editing Events for more information on editing events.
Adjusting the Pattern Grid and Pattern Length on the Controller
On your controller, the length of the selected Pattern, along with the Pattern Grid resolution
used to modify this length, can both be adjusted using various methods: via the Pattern mode,
the Grid mode, or the Record Prepare mode. Choose the method that best fits your current
workflow.
Method 1: Using the Pattern mode
In Pattern mode you can adjust both the Pattern Length of the current Pattern and the Pattern
Grid resolution:
1. Press and hold PATTERN to enter Pattern mode. You can also pin Pattern mode in order
to keep it active when you release PATTERN (see ↑2.3.6, Pinning a Mode on Your Con-
troller).
2. Press the Left Arrow button to select the LENGTH parameter (Pattern Length).
3. Turn the Control encoder to adjust the Pattern Length according to the current resolution
of the Pattern Grid.
4. Press the Right Arrow button to select the GRID parameter (Pattern Grid).
5. Turn the Control encoder to adjust the resolution of the Pattern Grid.
Method 2: Using the Grid mode
In Grid mode you can adjust the various grids used in MASCHINE, including the Pattern Grid
resolution:
1. Press and hold GRID to enter Grid mode. You can also pin Grid mode in order to keep it
active when you release GRID (see ↑2.3.6, Pinning a Mode on Your Controller).
