4.2.3. Red state, Blue state
Step buttons will display one of three states whether you are in Step mode or Accent mode.
They can be dark (no event), lit blue (event present), or lit red (accented event).
The behavior in each mode may be confusing at first. Here’s a chart that should help explain
what is happening:
Step mode Button press 1 Button press 2 Button press 3
Off Blue (new event) Off Blue

4.2.4. Selecting a Drum…
4.2.4.1. …while paused
To select an instrument track for individual editing, simply tap a pad. When the pad is lit
solid that means the instrument has been selected.
4.2.4.2. …while recording
It can be useful to both hear and see what various instruments are contributing to a pattern.
But if you touch a pad while the pattern is recording it will enter a note.
To select an instrument without entering a note while recording, hold the Shift button and
tap the desired pad. Its track data will now be displayed by the Step buttons.
