Sequence Editor
If you want to take things a step further, click on the OPEN SEQUENCE EDITOR BUTTON to
open the Sequence Editor for a given INSTRUMENT SLOT . The basic functionality and
user interface of the sequencer has a lot in common with MIDI editors, except that
they don’t play absolute notes. Instead, it takes whatever the note selection process
outputs based on the
ARRANGER MODE SELECTION , and manipulates that.
For instance, if you program a rhythmic pattern into the sequencers and play a
C-Major chord, the sequencers will take the note selections and play the chord with
that rhythm. If you change the values of one element from that rhythm one step
up or down, the sequencer will search for the next higher or lower note within your
chord and play that. If there is no such higher or lower note, the engine will look for
what note would be next, if your chord was an octave higher or lower.
