Next to the matching colour arrangement, you can see which tracks / patterns are playing. The
current playing patterns are animated and indicated as white pads. Also the current clock position
is shown as a white pad in the matrix.
The Pads in the matrix can be used to start the sequencer, start the pattern or to select the next
pattern to play (same as the start button when on a pattern). While holding the SHIFT button and
selecting a pattern in the matrix, the whole row will be started or selected to start next. (beware that
for the LP explanation the SHIFT button is the one on the LP (Button H) and not the one on the
NerdSEQ) Also this is the same function as if using SHIFT+START with the normal NerdSEQ keys.
The Matrix Pads/Buttons also have more functions when combined with the buttons to the right.
The top row of the LP show the Mute/Solo buttons for the Tracks 1..8 as well as the current state of
the buttons/tracks. Here green means the track is playing. Red means the track is not playing. And
black or no colour at all indicates that the track is muted. You can Mute/Unmute the track by
pressing one of the 8 top buttons. Combined with the SHIFT button you can Solo/Unsolo the track.
With Buttons A and B you can scroll Up and Down in the sequencer screen. Using the A or B
together with SHIFT, you can scroll a Page (16 rows) up and down.
Button C combined with a Pattern pad from the Matrix will enter the Pattern.
Button D combined with a track from the matrix (column 1..8) will change the track clock scale
(after the pattern is finished) in direction Dividers → Multipliers.
/7 → /6 → /5 → /3 → /32 → /16 → /8 -> /4 → /2 → Normal → *2 → *4 → *8 → *3 → *5 → *6 → *7
Together with the SHIFT buttons the clock scale will change in direction Multipliers →
Dividers.
*7 → *6 → *5 -> *3 → *8 → *4 → *2 → Normal → /2 → /4 → /8 → /16 → /32 → /3 → /5
→ /6 → /7
Button E combined with a Track from the matrix will set the track clock to normal (after the pattern
has finished)
Button F combined with a Track from the Matrix will select the track to stop when the pattern is
finished. Pressing it twice will stop the track immediately. (same function as regular STOP button)
SHIFT + F + a button in the matrix will stop the sequencer.
Button G combined with a button in the matrix will perform a jump to the new pattern if the selected
track is playing. The jump is from the currently playing pattern to the selected pattern on the same
step. (same function as using the OK button on the NerdSEQ if edit is turned off)
Together with the SHIFT button, the whole row will jump to the newly selected pattern row.
Keep in mind that these are only temporary jumps. If the pattern is finished, it will jump back to the
original playing pattern.
