The selected Pattern is loaded in the Pattern Editor and its events appear in the Event
area. Furthermore, this Pattern is referenced by a Clip for the selected Group in the cur-

Scene (see chapter
12, Creating a Song Using Scenes
If you want to select a Pattern already referenced by one or more Clips in the Arranger,
you can click any of these Clips to select and load the referenced Pattern in the Pattern
Editor. This way your arrangement won’t be modified.

Selecting a Pattern has the following consequences:
▪
This Pattern is displayed in the software’s Pattern Editor. You can then modify it both from
your controller and in the software.

This Pattern is referenced by a Clip for the selected Group in the current Scene. This Clip
replaces any previous Clip for the Group in that Scene (see chapter
for more on this).
If you only want to quickly select another Pattern without using any from the editing

use the shortcut
PATTERN
+ pad to select the desired Pattern.
