6.1.6. Editing all steps in a pattern at once

It is possible to edit certain parameters for all of the active steps in a pattern simultaneously.

This is done using the SHIFT button and one of the first two encoders.

6.1.6.1. SEQ1/SEQ2

You can set the Velocity or the Gate length of all active steps in a pattern at the same time

by holding [SHIFT] and turning Knob 1 or Knob 2.

• SHIFT+ Knob 1 will apply an offset to the values contained in the pattern. This

offset will be shown in the display with a range between -99 and +99. See

example 1 [p.71]

below.

• SHIFT+ Knob 2 will force all active steps to the same value as soon as you turn

the knob. The new value will be shown in the display. See

example 2 [p.71]

below.

These edits will affect only those events located between step 1 and the last step of the

pattern (i.e., the active steps). Any steps outside of that range will not be affected.

: The Pitch of all steps in SEQ1 or SEQ2 cannot be edited using these methods. To accomplish this,

use the

Transposition features [p.34]

as described in the

Step Sequencers [p.24]

chapter.

6.1.6.2. DRUM

You can set the Velocity, the Gate length, or the Shift of all active steps in a Drum pattern at

the same time by holding [SHIFT] and turning Knob 1 or Knob 2.

• SHIFT+ Knob 1 will apply an offset to the values contained in the pattern. This

offset will be shown in the display with a range between -99 and +99. See

example 1 [p.71]

below.

• SHIFT+ Knob 2 will force all active steps to the same value as soon as you turn

the knob. The new value will be shown in the display. See

example 2 [p.71]

below.

These edits will affect only those events located between step 1 and the last step of the

pattern (i.e., the active steps). Any steps outside of that range will not be affected.

Note that the time shift will be applied after the SHIFT button is released.

: For the DRUM sequencer the changes will be applied to the currently selected drum track only, not

the entire drum pattern.
