Song Mode Manual Programming
By means of the Cursor buttons you can select the different
parameters of a Song Step and change them with the data encoder.
Although the editing is read out in realtime and can be made during
playback, it may happen that the list jumps to the next Song Step if
you i.e. lower the number of repeats whilst it counts down.
Thus, for manual editing the sequencer should be stopped. To store
the value into the Song Step memory, the
(Write)
button has to be
pressed beforehand.
In Song Mode the write LED is always flashing in order to indicate
that you are in Song Mode.
The Pattern Write Mode is not affected by this and can even be used
in parallel with some limitiations…for instance to edit single
instruments by encoders during live performance while the song is
playing.
An example: If you want to repeat say pattern “6“ 8 times, you set
the cursor to
Pa
and press
(Write)
- the LED blinks.
Now turn
(Data)
encoder to 6. You could also use step button 6 to
select the pattern – it has the same function in Song Mode.

Then you move the cursor to
Rp
and change the number of
repetitions to 008.
You have to press
(Write)
again to leave the write mode in order not
to change the programmed settings.
