Pattern Write
The memory of a new Miami is empty and a pattern must first be
programmed.
There are two Pattern Write Modes
-Pattern Step Write
-Pattern Tap Write
You can switch to the Pattern Tap or Step Write modes from Pattern Play
Mode while the sequencer is running.
For example, if a chain from patterns 5-7 is playing in Pattern Play mode, the
chain will continue to loop when you change to Pattern Tap Write Mode. The
whole pattern chain can now be edited in Pattern Tap Write Mode.
Alternatively, if Step Write Mode is selected, only the pattern that was last
active will continue to play. It can then be edited in Step Write Mode.
For example, if one switches to Step Write Mode while pattern 6 from the
pattern chain 5-7 is playing in Pattern Tap Write mode, pattern 6 will selected.
It can then be edited in Step Write Mode.
Changing patterns is always done in Pattern Play Mode. Editing can be
done in the Pattern Write Modes.
In Tap Write Mode single patterns and pattern chains can be edited.
In Step Write Mode, only single patterns can be edited.
