When Follow is enabled, the right display and your pads automatically switch to the next 16
steps as soon as the playback position reaches the end of the portion currently displayed.
10.3.2 Editing Events in Step Mode
In Step mode you can quickly adjust the parameters of events on particular steps.
Editing Events in Step Mode on the Controller
You can adjust the various settings of your events via the left display:
1. Press and hold for a second the pad(s) of the step(s) you want to edit. If you want to ad-
just the last step you have created, you can skip this step: the last created event is auto-
matically selected. You can also use the 4-D encoder or the Page buttons left of the dis-
plays to quickly select individual steps.
2. Use Knobs 1–4 as described in the table below to edit the position, length, pitch, and
velocity of the selected events:

Description
Knob 1 (POSITION) Nudges selected events, i.e. shifts selected events on the timeline
according to the Nudge Grid (the events’ offsets relative to the Nudge
Grid are preserved). Hold SHIFT while you turn the knob to temporarily
override the Nudge Grid quantization and adjust the positions in
extremely small increments. See section ↑10.1.7, Adjusting the Step
Grid and the Nudge Grid for more information on the Nudge Grid.
If one event only is selected, its position is shown under POSITION. If
several events are selected, the field shows (MULTI).
Knob 2 (PITCH) Transposes the selected events by semitones.
When only one event is selected, its pitch is shown under PITCH. If
several events are selected, the field shows (MULTI).
