▪ Individual events/notes are represented by rectangular blocks. These always mirror the
steps currently represented by your pads. In both Group and Keyboard mode, velocities are
indicated by the event transparency: the more transparent the event, the softer the velocity
(in Pad Mode velocities are additionally indicated under each event in the display).
▪ The playback position in the Pattern is indicated by a playhead travelling from left to right.
▪ The Step Grid is displayed in the background.
To switch the right display and your pads to another part of the sequence, you have two possi-
bilities:
► Press the FOLLOW button or Button 5 ( FOLLOW ) above the display to enable/disable the
Follow function.
When Follow is enabled, the right display and your pads automatically switch to the next 16
steps as soon as the playback position reaches the end of the portion currently displayed.

plays to quickly select individual steps.
