9.6 Playing Songs and Patterns
Playing songs within song mode performs differently to playing patterns in
the pattern view. It is however also possible to play only patterns from
within Song mode. The dedicated, physical [Play] button will play a song in
song mode and will play the pattern only when in pattern mode.

Playback Behaviour.
Playing a song in song mode can be performed from the dedicated play
button or the screen buttons. Songs will play in loop meaning the song will
continue to play from the start after the last slot row is completed. Patterns
can also be played and looped from song mode. Switching between pattern
and song playback is possible using the screen buttons, which change
function to reect the current status.
