The ‘top down’ view can be changed
to ‘left right’ in the Cong settings;
General > Pattern Arrangement
▌ NAVIGATING THE PATTERN PAGE
1. Press [1] to open the ‘Pattern’ Page. Also accessible within the [Menu].
2. The step cursor will display a green border with the selected step
parameter highlighted green in normal playback mode. This indicates
the step in focus and current playhead position.
3. To move the position vertically, Press (Up) or (Down). The selection will
scroll and will wrap at the end of the pattern back to the top.
4. To move the position horizontally across tracks, Press (Left) or (Right).
The selection will scroll across the 1-4 visible tracks and switch across
tracks 5-8 at the right of the page. This view is default.
5. Press [Shift] + (Up), (Down), (Left) and (Right) to select rather than just
navigate a range of steps.
6. To return the playhead / step selector to the top step 1 of the pattern,
Press [Shift] + [Insert] when the sequencer is stopped.
▌ CHANGING FROM 4 TO 8 TRACK VIEW
1. By default the pattern page display 4 tracks. This can be changed to
display 8 tracks with a various step options:-
• 8 Tracks with only Note parameter: Press [1] + [Note].
• 8 Tracks with Instrument parameter: Press [1] + [Instrument].
• 8 Tracks with only FX1 parameter: Press [1] + [FX1].
• 8 Tracks with only FX2 parameter: Press [1] + [FX2].
• 8 Tracks with 2 selected parameters: Press [1] + [P1] + [P2], where
‘P1’ and ‘P2’ are 2 from; [Note], [Instrument], [FX1], FX2].
• Revert to 4 track mode, Press [1]
2. This relies on page [1] being assigned as ‘Pattern’. This is set as the
default but can be changed in the conguration.
