Setting Description
Pads
SENSITIVITY Adjusts how sensitive the pads respond to your touch. This sets the
minimum threshold at which a “hit” is registered.
SCALING Determines how your playing is translated into velocity values: starting
from Soft 3 (a soft touch is enough to get a big velocity value) through
Linear to Hard 3 (you really have to hit the pad hard to get a big velocity
value).
LEDs
BRIGHTNESS Adjusts the brightness of the pads and buttons.
Touchstrip
SHOW POSITION Shows the playhead position within a Pattern or song:
• Off : The Touchstrip never displays the playhead position.
• Rec. Only : The Touchstrip displays the playhead position only when
you are recording.
• On : The Touchstrip displays the playhead position during playback and
recording.
Display
BRIGHTNESS Adjusts the brightness of both displays.
Outputs
MAIN Routes the Line Out L/R to the Phones output. This allows you to listen
to the same audio output channel via the line output and headphone
output simultaneously, for example, use this if you want to listen to the
main out via speakers and listen to the main out via headphones.
Touch-Sensitive
Knobs
AUTO-WRITE Activates / deactivates the Touch Auto-write option. Touch Auto-write
can be very useful if you want to re-record modulation for a parameter at
a constant value. With Touch Auto-write enabled, you only need to keep a
finger on a parameter Knob (1–8): The current modulation value is
recorded as long as you touch the Knob, automatically replacing any old
modulation events at the position in the Pattern.
