A new empty Pattern is created in the selected Pattern slot. The new Pattern is loaded in

the Pattern Editor with an empty Event area. Furthermore, this Pattern is referenced by a
Clip for the selected Group in the current Scene in the Arranger. This Clip replaces any
previous Clip for the Group in that Scene (see chapter

16.3, Using Song View

for more

on this).

11.7.3.1 Creating a New Pattern on Your Controller

To create a new empty Pattern in the current Pattern bank, press

PATTERN

+ any unlit

pad.

A new empty Pattern is created at this position in the current Pattern bank. Additionally:

The new Pattern is selected and displayed in the software’s Pattern Editor. You can then

modify it both from your controller and in the software.

The new Pattern is referenced by a Clip for the selected Group in the current Scene. This

Clip replaces any previous Clip for the Group in that Scene (see chapter

16.3, Using Song

View

for more on this).

You don’t need to explicitly create a new empty Pattern before filling it with events: If no Pattern is
selected, as soon as you record events a new Pattern will be created for them! See section

11.4.2,

Creating Events/Notes

for more information on creating events.
