Editing Tool Description
Knob 3 (VELOCITY) Adjusts the velocity of the selected events. If the events have different
velocities, the velocities differences are retained as long as the limits
(0 and 127) are not reached. If one event only is selected, its velocity
is shown under VELOCITY. If several events are selected, the field
shows (MULTI).
Knob 4 (LENGTH) Moves the end of the selected events according to the Step Grid (the
offset of each event’s end relative to the Step Grid is preserved). Hold
SHIFT while you turn the knob to temporarily override the Step Grid
quantization and adjust the lengths in extremely small increments. If
the events have different lengths, the length differences are retained
as long as no event becomes shorter than one step.
If one event only is selected, its length is shown under LENGTH. If
several events are selected, the field shows (MULTI).
You can also use these editing functions to quickly create variations of your Patterns
during a live performance.
The following paragraphs will show you alternate editing functions available in the EDIT sec-
tion of your controller. These functions also work outside Select mode.
Nudge Events and Notes
Nudging allows you to shift selected events by the Nudge Grid resolution (the events’ offsets
relative to the Nudge Grid are preserved).
The Nudge Grid is based on the Step Grid and allows you to define even smaller jumps
than the Step Grid divisions to move your events more precisely. See section 10.1.7,
Adjusting the Step Grid and the Nudge Grid for more details.
Press SHIFT + pad 7 (NUDGE <) to nudge the selected events to the left, or SHIFT + pad
8 (NUDGE >) to nudge the selected events to the right. If nothing is selected, all event/
notes in the Pattern will be affected.
