2. Press the pad of the Sound you want to move.
3. Press SHIFT + Button 7 or 8 ( MOVE ) to move the Sound.
→ The Sound is now moved.
9.2.8. Resetting Sound Slots

properties, name, color…) back to their default values.
Resetting a Sound Slot
▶ To reset a Sound slot, hold SHIFT + ERASE and then press the pad related to the Sound you
want to reset.
→ The Sound is removed from the pad, and the pad is turned off.
9.3. Managing Groups
This section describes the global editing functions available for a Group.
9.3.1. Creating Groups
Creating a Group will add a new empty Group at the end of the Group List. You can then fill this
Group with the Sounds of your choice.
Existing Groups are indicated by the lit Group buttons A to H :
• The focused Group is indicated by the fully lit Group button.
• The other Groups of your Project are indicated by half-lit Group buttons, each Group button
showing the color of the corresponding Group.
• In the last Group bank, the last half-lit Group button is white: It doesn’t correspond to any
existing Group but instead allows you to create another Group in your Project.
To create a new Group:
1. Hold SHIFT and press the last lit Group button to select the last Group bank.
