Play order
Pads 29 to 32 in Pattern Settings View let you choose the play order the currently selected Pattern will
use. The pad for the selected play order illuminates brightly: the default play order is forwards (i.e.,
normal), indicated by Pad 29.

Reverse Ping-pong Random
Play order selection
Alternatives to the normal forward play order are:
• Reverse (Pad 30). The Pattern starts playing at the end point, plays the steps in reverse order to
the start point, and repeats.
• Ping-pong (Pad 31). The Pattern plays forwards from start to end, reverses back to the start

• Random (Pad 32). The track steps are played randomly, regardless of note/hit assignment,
though still at step intervals.
If the play order is changed in Play Mode, the Pattern always completes its current cycle before
starting a cycle with the new direction. This applies regardless of the current Pattern length or Step
Page selection.

Sync rate display
The selected sync rate is indicated by the brightly-lit pad: the default rate is “x1” (pad 5 in row 3),
which means the track will play at the set BPM. Selection of a higher-numbered pad increases the rate
at which the play cursor progresses through the Pattern relative to the previous one. Similarly the a
