12. PATTERNS

This is an alternative way of placing recorder trigs compared to the RECORDING SETUP menu method.
Read more about recorder trigs in section “9.2.2 RECORDER TRIG SAMPLING” on page 48.
Just like in the RECORDING SETUP menus, recorder trigs can in the TRACK TRIG EDIT
menu be assigned to dierent sampling sources. Keep a [TRIG] key pressed and depend-
ing on the source you wish to sample from either press [REC1], [REC2] or [REC3]. The
dierent sampling sources are covered in section “9. TRACK RECORDERS AND PICKUP
MACHINES” on page 44.
12.11 PATTERN SETTINGS MENU
This menu is opened by pressing [FUNC] + [PTN]. Here settings relating to how the tracks of the active
pattern should behave are found. Each pattern can have unique settings and the active pattern is visible in
the header of the menu. The settings and choices of the main alternatives are accessed by selecting a main
alternative and pressing the [RIGHT] arrow key.
12.11.1 PATTERN
Contains settings related to the patterns. Change the various settings by selecting them and either
pressing [YES] or turning the LEVEL knob.
SCALE MODE NORMAL is the default setting. In this mode all tracks of the pattern share the same
length and time signature. Step length and time signature settings are changed in the SCALE SETUP
menu, which is covered in section “12.15 SCALE SETUP” on page 78.
SCALE MODE PER TRACK allows every track in a pattern to have unique length and time signature
settings. Complex poly rhythms are easy to obtain when this mode is active. For more information how
to set individual track lengths and time signatures, see section “12.15 SCALE SETUP” on page 78.
USE PAT SET. CHAIN BEHAVIOR specifies for how long the active pattern will play before a cued
pattern will start playing. To be able to change this setting, the USE PRJ SET. setting below must be
unchecked. If PLEN is selected, the pattern will, depending on if NORMAL or PER TRACK mode is
active for the pattern, play either according to the total step length of the pattern or the set master
length before a chained pattern will begin playing. The other values possible to set are indicated in
pattern step lengths. If the chosen value starts to blink that indicates the value exceeds the length of
the pattern. The pattern will then play as if PLEN would have been selected.
USE PRJ SET. CHAIN BEHAVIOR will when checked use the chain behavior specified in the CHAIN
AFTER menu. For more information, please see “8.6.3 SEQUENCER” on page 36.
TRACK 1-TRACK 8
Here various playback settings for the tracks of the currently active pattern are found. Each track can
contain dierent settings. Change the settings by selecting them and either pressing [YES] or turning
the LEVEL knob. When in MIDI mode the settings will only aect the MIDI tracks. It is thus possible to
have dierent settings for audio and MIDI tracks.
