8:7 Auto Repeat Groove functions
The two columns of three buttons on the right of the BFD interface
offer repetition and variation when using the Groove Librarian. Each
column represents one of the two Groove Banks: the column on the
left represents Bank A, while the one on the right represents Bank
B.
The Auto Repeat functions are especially useful for drum pattern
variation when using BFD as an auto-accompaniment module.
Auto Repeat
When this option is checked, any triggered Groove will repeat until it
is stopped by a note-off (or by another note-on if in Latching Mode).
You can toggle this option via MIDI:
Auto Repeat Bank A ON/OFF: F4
Auto Repeat Bank B ON/OFF: F#4
Auto Shuffl e
When in Auto Repeat mode, turning on this button causes random Grooves within the
same Bank to play, instead of the triggered Groove being repeated.
Enabling the Sequenced Auto Shuffl e option, in the Play Options panel, results in
Grooves playing sequentially in the Bank, instead of at random.
This button has no effect when Auto Repeat is turned off.
You can toggle this option via MIDI:
Auto Shuffl e A ON/OFF: G4
Auto Shuffl e B ON/OFF: G#4
Auto Fill
When in Auto Repeat mode, enabling this option causes a random Fill from the Fill Bank
to be played every n bars, where n is defi ned by the Auto Fill Period setting in the Play
Options panel.
You can toggle this option via MIDI:
Auto Fill A ON/OFF: A4
Auto Fill B ON/OFF: A#4
Swap A/B
This function is only available via MIDI. It swaps the target of the repeating Groove
triggers, from one Bank to the other.
Swap A/B: E4
