THE PATTERN SEQUENCER
38
same condition applies if the active track is a UW RAM Recording machine. Note
that CTRL machines are not affected by this function as active track or otherwise.
• When in the TRACK EFFECTS section, use [FUNCTION] + DATA ENTRY knob E or
F to apply a filter sweep to the whole pattern.
• By pressing [FUNCTION] + [CLASSIC/EXTENDED] the saved kit will reload
instantly. This comes in handy when a pattern has been heavily manipulated and
you want to quickly revert it back to its original settings.
SCALE SETUP
It is possible to change the length and step resolution of a pattern. By default a pattern is 4/
4
bars (16 steps) of length.
By pressing the [FUNCTION] key and then the [SCALE SETUP] key, you can set the scale
length and replay speed mode.
There are three values that can be changed in the SCALE SETUP screen. The focus is
moved with the [LEFT] and [RIGHT] keys.
• The leftmost number selects the number of steps in the pattern. The maximum
number of steps is determined by the total length. Use [UP] and [DOWN] to
increase/decrease the number of steps. The [TRIG] keys can also be used to set
the end step.
• The second value selects the total length of the scale. This is either 16, 32, 48 or
6
4 steps. If you use 17 steps or more in a pattern, the [SCALE SETUP] key is used
in GRID RECORDING mode to toggle the focus between the different pattern
pages.
• The third value is the tempo multiplier. It allows a pattern to be played back in
200% of the source tempo, to increase the step resolution to 32nd notes. There
are two possible settings, “1X” and “2X”.
• Even though you set a pattern to have a certain length using scale setup, you can
change this row by row in the song editor. See section “SONG MODE”, on page 51
for more information.
• When changing pattern length from 16 to 64 steps, the first 16-step pattern page
will be copied to all the subsequent pages, if the last other pages previously have
not been programmed.
