Mouse in Pencil Mode
► To delete an event, simply click it. Click and hold an event and move the cursor to quickly
delete series of events.
The quickest and easiest way to delete events is the following:
1. Press EVENTS.
2. Press ERASE + the desired pad to delete from the Pattern all events for that Sound (if
pads are in Pad Mode) or all notes at that pitch for the focused Sound (if pads are in Key-
board mode).
For more information on Pad modes, please refer to section ↑6.1.1, The Pad View in the Software.
As soon as you hold ERASE, some pads light up to indicate where there is something to delete:
▪ If your pads are in Pad Mode, the lit pads show you the Sounds for which the Pattern con-
tains events.
▪ If your pads are in Keyboard mode, the lit pads show you the pitches (of the focused
Sound) for which the Pattern contains events.
In other terms you don’t need to press any unlit pad, since there are no events to delete there.
While holding ERASE you can press several pads to delete their events.
If you accidentally deleted events, press SHIFT + UNDO to undo it.
Deleting the Selected Events or Notes
Once you have selected particular events (see ↑11.4.3, Selecting Events/Notes for more on
this), you can delete them from the Pattern:
► Press SHIFT + pad 9 (CLEAR) to erase the selected events. If nothing is selected, all
event/notes in the Pattern will be affected.
Deleting Events or Notes while Playing
If the sequencer is currently playing, you can selectively erase events at the play position:
