MATRIX PATTERN SEQUENCER
(RECORD+REASON)

Tutorial
The programming procedure of the Matrix is to input note and gate values into the upper and lower fields of the pat-
tern window respectively. You can input values by clicking or dragging in the pattern window. Proceed as follows:
1. Create a Subtractor synth.
You don’t have to use the Subtractor device to use the Matrix, in fact you don’t have to use an instrument device
at all, but for this basic tutorial we will use a “standard” setup.
2. With the Subtractor selected, create a Matrix Pattern Sequencer.
The Matrix Note and Gate CV outputs will now be auto-routed to Subtractors Sequencer Control Gate and CV in-
puts, as you can see if you flip the rack around.
3. Make sure that the switch to the left of the pattern window is set to “Keys” position.
As you can see, there are two rows of red rectangles. The one with horizontal rectangles at the bottom of the up-
per field in the pattern window represent note pitch, for each step in a pattern. At the moment they are all set to
the same note pitch. The row of vertical rectangles in the lower field represent Gate velocity values - currently
these are all set to a velocity value of 100 for all steps.
