2. BASIC OPERATIONS
2.1. Working with Patterns
DrumBrute holds 64 patterns, arranged in four banks of 16 patterns each.
2.1.1. Select a bank
In addition to the numbers 1-4, the first four Step buttons are silkscreened with the letters A,
B, C, and D. Each one represents a bank of 16 patterns.
To switch between banks, press the Bank button and then select one of the first four Step
buttons. After this, press the Ptrn button and select one of the 16 patterns within that bank
using the Step buttons.
When the Drumbrute is playing there is a setting in the MIDI Control Center software that
allows you to switch between banks without the additional step of selecting a pattern. See
section [p.71]
to learn more about this feature.
2.1.2. Select a pattern
To select a pattern within the current bank simply press one of the Step buttons 1-16. If you
are still in Bank mode you will need to press the Ptrn button first and then select the pattern.
DrumBrute will respond in one of two ways if it is running when the selection is made: it will
either change immediately to the new pattern or wait until the end of the current pattern.
Use the “Wait to Load Pattern” setting in the MIDI Control Center software or Shift button
+ step 14 on Drumbrute, to specify which behavior you prefer. This is described in
section
[p.70]
.
Note
: you can't change pattern while Recording
