You can audition the samples by pressing the sample pads. To change the active sample, give a
different sample pad a quick tap: a longer press will play the sample but leave the previous sample
assigned as the active one.
To assign the active sample to Pattern steps, tap the Pattern step pads that correspond to where you
want the samples to be triggered. The steps with hits will illuminate bright blue. The step pads are
toggles – to delete the sample from a step, tap the step pad again.
To change the active sample, tap another sample pad. This will affect sequencer playback – bright
blue steps will always trigger the track’s currently active sample. Pressing a sample pad (as opposed to
tapping) will not change the active sample. This behaviour is useful for Sample Flipping, which you can
read more about on page 31 (see also below).
Sample triggers programmed by tapping in steps as described above will be assigned to the Pattern
with default Velocity, Gate, Micro Step and Probability values: these parameters can then be edited.
Sample triggers may also be live-recorded to the sequencer. First, enable Record Mode by pressing
the Rec button

so that it lights bright red G. Now press Play
and hit some sample pads –
these hits will be recorded to steps. Note that these steps will be lit lilac – this indicates that the steps
have an assigned sample. These steps will ignore the track’s currently active sample, instead triggering
the sample you just used. This behaviour is called Sample Flip, which you can read more about on
page 31
