Repeats can be used to build a playlist that lasts over many bars.
The maximum value of repea ts is 8, so with 8 steps in a playlist, the total time a playlist takes to run
through once can be up to 64 bars.
Step Transpose
You can transpose the pattern played on any playlist step over a wide range.
The same pattern can be selected on a number of playlist steps , and transposed by different amounts.
Let’s work through an example of that now.
At the moment you should have a playlist with a length of 2 steps, pattern 1 on step 1, and pattern 2 on
step 2.
Follow these steps:
• use the repeats knob ab ove PLAYLIST STEP 1 to set repeats back to 1 on step 1
• use F1 + PLAYLIST STEP key 2 to select edit view for step 2
• press PATTERN key 1 to select pattern 1 on step 2
• use F1 + PLAYLIST STEP key 3 to select edit view for step 3 – note that this step is not yet
playing since the length is only 2
• press PATTERN key 1 to select pattern 1 on step 3
• use F1 + PLAYLIST STEP key 4 to select edit view for step 4
• press PATTERN key 2 to select pattern 2 on step 4
• use F3 + PLAYLIST STEP key 4 to set the playlist len gth to 4
You should now have a playlist that plays the same series of patterns as before.
But instead of having a 2 step playlist like this:
Step 1 2
Pattern 1 2
Repeats 3 1
