To assign a Probability to a step in Stop Mode, press and release the pad for the step you wish to edit
and press the pad in Row 3 corresponding to the Probability value. To assign Probability to a step
while in Play Mode, you must keep the step pad held while you set a probability. All notes assigned
to the step will have a collective chance of being played according to the percentages above. This
means that either all of the notes at the step will play, or none of them will.
• A Probability of 100% means that the notes at the step will always be played.
• A Probability of 50% means that on average, the notes at the step will be played in half of the
patterns.
• A Probability of 25% means that on average, the notes at the step will be played in a quarter of
the patterns.
Clearing steps, Patterns and Projects will also reset all Probabilities to 100%. Live recording of a new
note to a step will also reset the probability at that step to 100%.
Micro step edit
You’re not limited to your synth notes only being played precisely on the pattern step they’re
assigned to. You can take your music ‘off the grid’ by delaying individual notes on a step by between
one and five ‘ticks’, where a tick is a sixth of a step. This lets you create more complex rhythms that
would not be possible otherwise, for example, triplets across the beat.
Micro Step View is the secondary view of the Gate button 6 . Open by holding Shift and pressing
Gate, or press Gate a second time if already in Gate View to toggle the View. In Micro Step View,
select a step to see the location of the note(s) on the step: the first six pads of the third grid row will
display this. By default, whether the note was entered in Stop Mode or via live recording (with Rec
Quantise enabled), the first pad will be lit. This means the note(s) have an initial delay of zero, and will
be heard exactly on the step.
