The following paragraphs will show you alternate editing functions available in the
EDIT
sec-
tion of your controller. These functions also work outside Select mode.
Nudge Events and Notes
Nudging allows you to shift selected events by the Nudge Grid resolution (the events’ offsets
relative to the Nudge Grid are preserved).
The Nudge Grid is based on the Step Grid and allows you to define even smaller jumps than the
Step Grid divisions to move your events more precisely. See section
for more details.

Press
SHIFT
+ pad
7
(
NUDGE <
) to nudge the selected events to the left, or
SHIFT
+ pad
8
(
NUDGE >
) to nudge the selected events to the right. If nothing is selected, all event/
notes in the Pattern will be affected.
Setting the Step Grid to “Off” and then using Nudge will shift events in extremely small incre-
ments. This can be used to creatively add groove to Patterns, for example, shifting the snare drum
so that it is ever so slightly late, or “in the pocket” (something a funk drummer does naturally!).
