4.7 Quick Start Step Creation
Patterns are just empty containers and will require steps to be added to
create a beat of melody. A step is essentially a note, instrument (based on a
sample) and two effect slots. This section gives a quick start on step
composition before moving to more in depth coverage in a future section.
