2. Select the track you wish to do parameter locks for, using the SOUND SELECTION
wheel. Select a parameter page (SYNTHESIS, EFFECTS or ROUTING) for the DATA
ENTRY knobs.
3. Press and hold the [TRIG] key for the step where you want to add a lock. While holding
the [TRIG] key, you can now tweak the parameter of your choice with the DATA ENTRY
knobs. You can tell that the parameter has been locked by it being inverted on the LCD
screen. When the [TRIG] key is released, the trig for that position will hold the parame-
ters that you just programmed. You can also click an unlocked DATA ENTRY knob once
to lock it to its current value.
4. You can verify which steps have parameter locks by looking at the <TRIG> LEDs. A
f
irmly lit <TRIG> LED means that it is not locked, whereas a rapid interval flash indicates
it does have one or more parameter locks.
5. If you want to view the current parameter lock settings for a step, hold the [TRIG] key.
You can tell which parameters are locked by them being inverted on the screen.
6. To remove all parameter locks for a step, hold the [TRIG] key and press the [PLAY] key.
You can also remove the locks by deleting the trig and reinserting it.
7. To remove one of more parameter lock for a step, hold the [TRIG] key and click the
DATA ENTRY knob you want to remove the lock for. You can tell that the lock has been
removed by the inversion disappearing for the parameter clicked.
A lock is a snapshot of a parameter setting. It changes the parameter value from
its original value stored in the kit, but only for that note trig. The parameter will
change back to its default state on the next trig if no further parameter locks are
made for that note and parameter.
A pattern can have a total of 64 individually locked parameters divided freely
between all tracks and parameters. When a parameter is locked on one step, that
parameter can be locked to individual values on all the steps of the track.
Parameter locks only work in EXTENDED mode, but changing mode to CLASSIC
w
ill not affect any pre-recorded locks. They will remain in the pattern, but they will
have no effect until the mode is set to EXTENDED again.
PARAMETER LOCKS IN LIVE RECORDING MODE
In LIVE RECORDING mode, you can record parameter locks live. To do this, follow the
steps below:
1. Go into live recording mode by holding down the [REC] button and then pressing the
[PLAY] key.
2. Select the track for which you wish to enter parameter locks by using the SOUND
SELECTION wheel or by pressing [FUNCTION] + the corresponding [TRIG] key. Select
a parameter page (SYNTHESIS, EFFECTS or ROUTING) for the DATA ENTRY knobs.
3. Record parameter locks by changing the corresponding DATA ENTRY knob while live
recording. When changing a parameter, the parameter lock will be set on the next note
played on the track. If a parameter is not changed between two drum trigs no parameter
lock will be made.
4. To remove specific parameter locks, press and hold [EXIT/NO] and a DATA ENTRY
knob. All parameter locks will be removed for that specific parameter and track on the
steps of the track that is played.
