Velocity View – see below). This also applies to Note View (both Slice and Keyboard), Expanded
Keyboard Note View, Sample View and Drum Pads View.
Samples programmed using the pattern step pads will always use Fixed Velocity, regardless of the
selected velocity mode. Note that the selection of fixed or variable velocity is global, i.e., it applies
to all tracks.
You can change the Velocity value of a step after you’ve created a pattern. This is done in Velocity
View, which is selected by pressing Velocity

In Velocity View, the two upper rows of the grid represent the 16-step pattern for the currently
selected sample, while the two lower rows represent a 16-segment “fader”, spilt across two rows; the
number of pads illuminated sand represent the Velocity value for the selected step.
In the example above, Steps 4, 8,10 and 16 are brightly lit, indicating that these steps have samples
associated with them. One pad in the Pattern step display will flash alternate blue/white: this is the
step whose Velocity value is being displayed. In the example, the Velocity value for this step is 40; the
first five pads of Row 3 are lit sand (because 5 x 8 = 40), the remainder of the Velocity value display is
unlit. If the Velocity value is not a multiple of 8, the “last” pad in the Velocity display will be dimly lit
to indicate that it is between pad values. Such values may be recorded via live playing, but may not
be programmed in manually.
Note also that you hear the sample at the step when you press the step pad.
You can change Velocity value by pressing the pad in the Velocity value display rows that corresponds
to the Velocity value. If you wanted the hit at Step 12 in the example above to have a Velocity value of
