6.4.5 Swing on Note Repeat / Arp Output
The Swing engines (at the Master, Group, and Sound level) process notes coming from the Pat-
tern Editor and from the Arp engine (pads in Keyboard mode) or Note Repeat engine (pads in Pad
Mode). In other terms, the swing is applied not only to your Patterns but also to any live se-
quence generated by the Arp or Note Repeat engine.
The applied swing is not recorded in the Pattern Editor. For an overview of the signal flow starting
from your pads, have a look at the diagrams in section
↑ 6.4.1, Overview of the Perform Features .
For example, when you play live beats on top of a running Pattern, you can use Note Repeat
without destroying the Pattern’s groove: the repeated notes will be processed using the same
swing parameters as the playing Pattern.
When the playback is not running, the swing is still applied to the output of Arp (Keyboard mode) or
Note Repeat (Pad Mode). If you press PLAY on your controller, the playback starts immediately and
the swing cycle is reset.
6.5 Using Lock Snapshots
Lock allows you to create a snapshot of your current settings that you can quickly recall. A
snapshot contains every modulatable parameter in your Project, including your Solo and Mute
settings.
Lock snapshots are not only a powerful tool for recalling extensive modulations, but also very
useful to compare mixes, or to use during a live performance.
6.5.1 Creating a Lock Snapshot

To create a Lock snapshot:
1.
