Alternating from 2 to 16 notes in an alternating pattern (more info below)

Control + 3 Notes continuous data send from pad along with note data (more info below)

In order for these curves to work properly, note numbers have to be assigned to the NOTE NUMBER

SLOTS. There are up to 16 slots per pad. These are assigned using the Note Edit Footswitch combined

with the KIT Edit Footswitch.

Step on the Note Edit Footswitch and tap on a pad. You will see the pad number, a three digit note

number already assigned to the pad followed by a dash …

then you will see the SLOT number from 1- 16

While the Note Edit Footswitch is held down, press on the Kit Edit Footswitch. Each press on the Kit

Edit Footswitch increments the slot by one. When you release this footswitch, you can then edit the

note number in that slot.

The trapKAT remembers what slot you last used, so be careful. You might be thinking you are

programing the first slot, but check the slot number first before changing note numbers

ALTERNATE MODE

The trapKAT can play up to 16 alternating notes on any pad. It is also possible to use “silence” as a

note value so that rhythms can sound simply playing even 16

notes on that pad.

To turn to this function, select the Curve called, ALTERNATING for that particular pad. Next program

the MIDI note numbers you want in the Slot positions.

There are several “special” note numbers that have a direct affect on the Alternating Curve. These are

called “Alternate Reset”, “Alternate Freeze” and NO. These “note numbers” can be found when you

scroll past 127 using the Note Edit Footswitch.
