Editing the Drum Control Panel parameters using the Quick Edit function
A quicker way of editing the Drum Control Panel parameters for several Drum channels at once is by using the Quick
Edit function. The Drum Control Panel features four Quick Edit buttons.
1. Click the Quick Edit button below the Pitch and Decay Offset section.
Each Pad now shows the current Pitch and Decay Offset settings for each assigned Drum channel.
2. Edit the Pitch and Decay Offsets by clicking and dragging the “crosshair” on the desired Pads.
The Decay Offset is on the horizontal X-axis and the Pitch Offset is on the vertical Y-axis, as shown in plain text
on the big red frame around the Pad section. As you move the crosshair, the corresponding knobs on the Drum
Control Panel move as well - and vice versa.
3. When you are done, click the Quick Edit button or press [Esc] to exit - or click another Quick Edit button to
change other sets of parameters.
