Description

Knob 1 (

POSITION

)

Nudges selected events, i.e. shifts selected events on the timeline

according to the Nudge Grid (the events’ offsets relative to the Nudge
Grid are preserved). Hold

SHIFT

while you turn the knob to temporarily

override the Nudge Grid quantization and adjust the positions in

extremely small increments. See section

11.1.7, Adjusting the Step

Grid and the Nudge Grid

for more information on the Nudge Grid.

If one event only is selected, its position is shown under

POSITION

. If

several events are selected, the field shows

(MULTI)

.

Knob 2 (

PITCH

)

Transposes the selected events by semitones.
When only one event is selected, its pitch is shown under

PITCH

. If

several events are selected, the field shows

(MULTI)

.

Knob 3 (

VELOCITY

)

Adjusts the velocity of the selected events. If the events have different

velocities, the velocities differences are retained as long as the limits

(0 and 127) are not reached. When only one event is selected, its
velocity is shown under

VELOCITY

. If several events are selected, the

field shows

(MULTI)

.

Knob 4 (

LENGTH

)

Moves the end of the selected events according to the Step Grid (the

offset of each events' end relative to the Step Grid is preserved). Hold

SHIFT

while you turn the knob to temporarily override the Step Grid

quantization and adjust the lengths in extremely small increments. If
the events have different lengths, the length differences are retained

as long as no event becomes shorter than one step.
When only one event is selected, its length is shown under

LENGTH

. If

several events are selected, the field shows

(MULTI)

.
