FREEZE Button
Freeze Mode
Freeze mode takes the playhead position, adds the number of bars set as loop size and splits
this section of a track into eight equally sized slices. These Freeze Slices are then mapped to
the adjacent pads, which light up blue. By pressing any of these pads the playback continuous
at the mapped Freeze Slice position and will play to the end of the track if no other Freeze
Slice is triggered.
In Freeze mode, the numbers 1 - 8 are overlaid on the waveform to indicate the location of the
Freeze Slices. The first row triggers Freeze Slices 1 - 4, the second row triggers Freeze Slices 5
- 8.
►
Adjust the size of the Freeze Slices by pressing and holding the
FREEZE button and then
turning the Loop encoder. The waveform in the display adjusts its zoom level accordingly.
You can vary Freeze Slice sizes between 1/4 of a beat and 4 beats.
Slicer Mode
The Slicer mode extends the Freeze mode's functionality. A press on the LOOP button while in
Freeze mode the playback behavior of the pads changes: Instead of playing from the slice start
to the end of the entire track, pressing and holding a pad in Slicer mode will play back just the
corresponding slice in a loop. A further press on the Loop encoder exits Freeze Slicer and play-
back continuous as normal.
In Slicer Mode, the pads turn green and while playing back the selected loop, pads flash
bright green while the assigned slice is played back. This is also reflected on the Deck's
display.
