The Pad Function Keys
16 Levels
If 16 levelS is selected (by pressing 16
SoundS and 16 MuteS together), the sixteen
pads play a single Sound at sixteen evenly
spaced volume (velocity) levels. This is an
alternative to using the pads’ touch sensi-
tivity for playing and recording dynamics.
If the PadS key (in the Screens section) is
lit, the following screen will be displayed, showing the velocity level for each
pad plus related controls:

Quantize
When recording Beats in real time,
notes are moved to the nearest 1/8,
1/16 note, etc., set here. This is also
used for the Note Roll rate, plus the
step size for the ‘Beat Events’ screen
and the ‘16 Time Steps’ pad function.
Soft Knob 2:
Swing
Varies the selected Beat’s 1/16
note Swing amount from 50%
(straight 1/16s) to 66% (triplet
swing) and more. 54-58% gives
a relaxed 16th note feel.

To change the selected sound

hold Shift while pressing the pad that
holds the desired sound in the
16 Sounds screen.

which each of the 16 pads will
play the selected sound.
