→ If the Pattern Editor is in Group view this will select all events for all Sounds in the Pat-
tern. If the Pattern Editor is in Keyboard view this will select all events at all pitches for
the focused Sound.
Selecting Events/Notes on the Controller
Using your controller you can select particular events from the selected Pattern. This will allow
you to edit them without affecting the other events.
For  example  in  Pad  Mode  this  can  be  very  useful  to  quickly  quantize  a  few  drum  instruments  in
your  kit  without  affecting  the  rest  of  the  kit:  Press  SHIFT  +  SELECT  +  the  pads  of  the  desired
drums then press SHIFT + pad 5 (QUANTIZE), and you’re done!
You  can  select  notes  and  events  using  the  pads.  Depending  on  the  current  pad  mode  (Pad
Mode or Keyboard mode, see  ↑6.1.1, The Pad View in  the Software), events will be  selected
differently:
▪ In Pad Mode (the default mode of the pads), each pad represents a specific Sound:
◦ Unlit  pads  indicate  Sounds  for  which  the  Pattern  has  no  events.  Nothing  happens
when you press them.
◦ Dimmed  pads  indicate  Sounds  for  which  events  can  be  selected:  Press  any  dimmed
pad to add all events for that Sound to the selection. The pad turns fully lit to indicate
that all its events are selected. You can press any additional dimmed pad to add its
events to the selection. Pressing a dimmed pad additionally switches the focus to the
corresponding Sound.
◦ Fully  lit  pads  indicate  Sounds  for  which  all  events  are  selected:  Press  any  lit  pad  to
remove all its events from the selection (the pad turns dim lit).
▪ In Keyboard mode, each pad represents a specific pitch of the focused Sound:
◦ Unlit pads indicate pitches at which the Pattern has no notes. Nothing happens when
you press them.
◦ Dimmed pads indicate pitches at which notes can be selected: Press any dimmed pad
to add all notes at that pitch to the selection. The pad turns fully lit to indicate that
all its notes are selected. You can press any additional dimmed pad to add its notes to
the selection.
