When creating patterns the track must be selected to edit the specific part
of the pattern. The pattern can be created and edited over 4 visible pages
each with 16 steps. Therefore 64 steps in total.
What is a Step?
A step in T-1 is the location within a pattern where an event can be setup to
occur. This can be a note or control change event. Steps are laid out in the
defined divisions and are empty unless edited with a pulse or locked to
specific parameter values.
What is a Pulse?
In T-1 a pulse refers to an event which is applied to a step. The step is no
longer empty and when the play head reaches the pulse, an event is
triggered. This will typically play a melodic note or drum beat or contain a
parameter change.
Step Sequencer View.
The default view in T-1 is the Tracks view. When pressing or turning
(STEPS) or (PULSES), the step or pulse sequencer view is displayed. The
value button view for the step sequencer will differ slightly depending on the
mode selected.
