4.1.5. Using the Roller while recording
The Roller strip is a quick way to input drum rolls into a pattern.
♪
: The Looper is not available while recording.
4.1.5.1. How it works
Using the Roller is simple. Just start recording, place your finger on the Roller strip, and touch
a drum pad to create a roll.
The Roller repeats the note at a rate determined by a combination of factors: the clock
source, the time division and the position of your finger on the Roller strip.
The output is based on 4/4 time, too. So if your song has a bar of 7/8 and you have your
finger on the strip at 1/4, the Roller output will be off by an eighth note after that bar.
The touchstrip also sends and responds to CC. You can activate/deactivate this option in the
see MCC Device Settings section [p.97]
)
4.1.5.2. Sync settings
The Roller works even when an external sync source is used. The results may vary
depending on the source, though.
If the time division of the pattern is set to a triplet value the roller will play various divisions
of triplet beats.
4.1.6. Spot Erase
Notes can be erased while the pattern is looping in record mode. To do this, hold the Erase
button and then tap the desired pads whenever you hear something you don’t want. The
next time the pattern loops the notes will be removed from that location.
