THE PATTERN SEQUENCER

MINIMISING THE MUTE WINDOW
While the MUTE window is active it occupies a large portion of the LCD screen. This can
b
e disturbing if you want to work with mutes at the same time as you want to access the
sound parameters.
To avoid this problem, the MUTE window transforms to a small centered window when a
DATA ENTRY knob is accessed while in MUTE mode. To return to the big MUTE window,
press the [ENTER/YES] button.
In songs, mutes can be programmed specifically per row. For more information,
see section “SONG MUTE” on page 55.
A muted track remains muted, even when the pattern is changed or if SONG mode
is entered or exited.
Drums already trigged and still making sounds will continue to sound when
muted, but further trigs will be masked. This allows the drums to fade out in a nat-
ural way.
ACCENT TRACK
The Accent feature is used for quickly changing the accentuation for either a pattern as a
whole or for individual tracks. Accent raises the volume at selected positions within a pat-
tern or a track.
1. Hold down the [FUNCTION]
key while pressing the [B/F] key. This brings forth the
ACCENT window.
2. The accent value is set in steps up to 15, using [UP] and [DOWN] or the SOUND
SELECTION wheel.
3. Toggle the steps to be accented by pressing the [TRIG] keys. Accent is per default set to
ALL and will therefore affect the whole pattern. Place accents by pressing the [TRIG]
keys. Press the [RIGHT] arrow key if you want to accent individual tracks.
4. Move on to the next accent track by holding down [
FUNCTION] and pressing the [TRIG]
key corresponding to the track whose accent you want to set.
