ping. For more information, please see “C.3 SLOTS NOTE MAPPING” on page 138.

12.9 SEQUENCER COPY, PASTE AND CLEAR OPERATIONS
To make it easier and quicker to compose using the Octatrack MKII, a number of dierent copy, paste and
clear operations are available. To avoid accidentally overwriting or deleting data, paste and clear operations
can be undone.
12.9.1 PATTERN COPY
A pattern can be copied either to a location in the bank it belongs to or to a location in another bank.
Before performing a pattern copy operation, make sure you are not in GRID RECORDING mode.
Select the pattern you want to copy, then press and hold [FUNC] while pressing [RECORD]. A mes-
sage “COPY PATTERN” will be shown in the display. The pattern data being copied consists of trigs and
parameter locks. Select the destination you wish to paste your pattern data to by using the [BANK],
[PTN] and [TRIG] keys as needed. Paste the data by pressing the [FUNC] + [STOP] keys. The mes-
sage “PASTE PATTERN” will be shown in the display. Pasting a pattern overwrites any previous trigs and
parameter locks.
The pattern paste operation can be undone by pressing [FUNC] + [STOP] immediately after it has been
performed. A message saying “UNDO PATTERN” will be shown in the display.
The part assigned to the pattern won’t be copied when performing a pattern copy com-
mand. Should you paste the copied pattern to another bank and want the same part
assigned, the part needs to be copied and pasted separately.
