sure that track 1 is selected by pressing the TRACK 1 button (low C on the mini-
keyboard).
4.Press and hold the TRANSPOSE button, now select a semitone transpose amount by
pressing one of the buttons of the mini-keyboard.

6.Now we will save the transposed pattern setup into a new SNAPSHOT location. We
are still in SNAPSHOT mode and the SNAPSHOT LED should be blinking.
7. Press and hold the RECORD button and then click PATTERN STEP 2. This saves the
snapshot to location 2.
8.You can now switch back and forth between the two snapshots by clicking PATTERN
STEP 1 or PATTERN STEP 2. The snapshot will change when the pattern loops and
you should hear the pattern transpose automatically.

CREATE A SONG
Using the two snapshots we have recorded, we will build a simple song.
1.Select SONG MODE by double clicking the SONG (transpose up) button.
2.For this example we will use song step record mode to create the song. To enter
step record, press and hold FUNCTION and then click RECORD. The FUNCTION
and RECORD LEDs will start blinking.
3.For our song structure we will play snapshot 1 three times, then switch to snapshot 2
for one repetition, then loop back to the beginning.
4.The current song step number is shown on the numeric display, it should be showing
“St 1” for step 1.
5.Although it should already be selected, click PATTERN STEP 1 to select snapshot 1
for this step.
6.Now click the TRACK 3 (mini-keyboard E) button to set the step repeats to 3. The
first 3 track LEDs will show the number of repetitions.
7. Now we move to song step 2 by clicking the FORWARD (D sharp) button. The
numeric display should change to show “St 2”.
8.Now click PATTERN STEP 2 to assign snapshot 2 to this song step.
9.The number of repeats should already be set to 1, which is shown by a (blinking)
LED on the TRACK 1 button.
10.Now we need to assign song step two as the last step in this song. Click the REST
(slide) button to assign this step as the last song step. The REST LED will light.
