Opening and Closing: To the left of the name is a small
triangle; clicking this toggles between showing or hiding
the contents of the box, just like folders in the Windows
Explorer. Closing the box leaves more room for the ele-

The Sequence Parameters: If a sequence parameter is
set to its default value, the display of the parameter value is
hidden to make the display clearer.
Name: The top line in the sequence parameter box simply
shows the name of the selected sequence.
Qua: Covered in section Quantization from page 135 on-
wards.
Loop: Value range: On or Off. Normal value: Off.
When switched On ,the object is repeated on its track until
it comes up against another object. A loop also finishes at
the song end marker. These repeats are displayed as grey
beams (with no object name). The length of each loop is
exactly the same as the length of the original object, so if
you want to create polyrhythmic structures, try experi-
menting with the length of the original object.
To end a loop early simply create an empty sequence with
the pencil at the desired beat.
Functions > Sequence Parameter > Turn Loops to Real
Copies transforms the loops into real copies of the original
object and simultaneously switches the Loop parameter
for the resulting objects to off.
Transpose: Value range: ±96 semitones. Normal value: 0.
