# 10.14 PERFORM KIT MODE

10. THE SEQUENCER
•	 [FUNC] + [RECORD] copies the selected row.
[FUNC] + [STOP] pastes a previously copied row to the selected row.
[FUNC] + [PLAY] resets the selected row to the pattern’s default BPM, length, and mute
state settings.
[FUNC] + [UP] deletes the selected row.
•	 Please note that there is always a row called END at the song’s end. This row can be set
to either STOP the song or LOOP it from the beginning and play it again.
•	 On the SONG EDIT screen, you can select a song row number and then press YES to
move the playhead to this row. You can also use the [TRIG 1–16] keys to preview and
play the track presets from the pattern on the playhead row.
10.13.3 PLAYING A SONG
1.	 Press [SONG] and then press [TRIG 1–16] to select a song and enter SONG mode. The song selected
will be the one that was last played or edited.
2.	 Press [PLAY] to play the selected song. At the top of the screen, you see the song number, the row
currently playing, the total number of rows in the song, the row’s LABEL, and finally the patterns bank/
number. This part of the screen is also used as a progress bar to show how far in the row the song
pointer has progressed.
3.	 Press [STOP] to stop the playback. You can then press [PLAY] to continue to play the song from the
current playhead position. Press [STOP] twice to move the playhead to the song’s beginning.
4.	 To exit song mode, press [PTN] + [TRIG 1–16] to return to pattern mode.
•	 Press [SONG MODE] + [LEFT] (when in SONG mode) to loop the currently playing row.
Press [SONG MODE] + [LEFT] again (when in SONG mode) to stop looping the row and
return to normal song playback.
•	 Press [SONG MODE] + [UP]/[DOWN] (when in SONG mode) to select a specific song row
to jump to and to play next.
•	 Press [PTN] and the [TRIG 1–16] keys to select a pattern to exit SONG mode and return to
regular pattern play.
The songs are automatically saved as they are created and edited. However, you must save
the project if you wish to keep the songs before switching to another project.
10.14 PERFORM KIT MODE
In PERFORM KIT mode, any changes made to the preset parameters are not auto-saved, and kits are not
loaded when you change the pattern; instead, you keep the previous (tweaked) kit. It means you can keep
your parameter tweaks over several patterns and have a smooth evolving performance without having the
kits reloaded or inadvertently saving your kit when you change patterns.
Press [FUNC] + [PRESET/KIT] to toggle PERFORM KIT mode on/off. When PERFORM KIT mode is on, a
flashing “P” is shown next to the pattern name on the screen and the [PRESET/KIT] key is lit blue.

10.14.1 PERFORM KIT MODE ACTIONS
•	 Press [PRESET/KIT] + [NO] to reload the current patterns kit instantly.
•	 Press [PRESET/KIT] + [YES] to save the current patterns modified kit. This will open the SAVE
(KIT) menu. For more information please see “9.2.6 SAVE (KIT)” on page 33.
Pattern Temp save and Temp reload still works while in PERFORM KIT mode
Actions done in PERFORM KIT mode are not saved and will not remain when switching the
device off. Saving the pattern will not save any changes done in PERFORM KIT mode.

11. TRACK PARAMETERS
11. TRACK PARAMETERS
Here follows a description of all of the parameters that are available on the audio tracks PARAMETER
pages. The parameters on the TRIG page are not saved together with the preset, but are instead saved
with the pattern. The track parameters may be locked to other settings on any step of the pattern by first
pressing and holding a [TRIG] key, then changing the parameters’ settings with the DATA ENTRY knobs.
For more information, please see “10.12.1 PARAMETER LOCKS” on page 50.
Please note that MIDI tracks have a different set of parameters on the TRIG, SYN, FLTR, and
AMP pages. For more information, please see “A.2 SYN MACHINES” on page 89.
11.1 EDITING THE TRACK PARAMETERS
There are six PARAMETER pages for the tracks. Press the [PARAMETER] keys to access the tracks
PARAMETER pages. Use the [UP]/[DOWN] keys to access the parameter group's pages. You can also
press a [PARAMETER] key repeatedly to cycle trough the parameter pages in that group. Press and hold a
[PARAMETER] key to see the values for all parameters on that page.
•	 You can always reload a preset from its last saved state. Press [TRK] + [TRIG 1–16] + [NO]
to reload the preset.
•	 You can also randomize the parameter settings on a specific PARAMETER page on an
audio track. Press [PARAMETER] key + [YES] to randomize the relevant parameters on that
page. Every time you press this key combination, the parameters randomize in a new way.
•	 Press [PARAMETER] key + [NO] to reset the PARAMETER page to its last saved state.
11.2 TRIG PAGE 1
Here you set the options for notes that are trigged. This is also where you select trig conditions. Press the
[TRIG PARAMETERS] key to access the menu. Change settings using the DATA ENTRY knobs. These
general settings affect note trigs placed on the sequencer.
NOTE
Trig Note sets the pitch of the note when trigged. When in LIVE RECORDING mode and playing in KEY­
BOARD mode, the pitch of the [TRIG] keys played will override this setting. Press and turn DATA ENTRY
knob A to select only note values that exist in the scale set by KB SCALE. This behavior can be inverted
using the NOTE PARAM setting in the PERSONALIZE menu. For more information, please see “13.7.6
NOTE PARAM” on page 79 and “8.5.2 KEYBOARD SETUP MENU” on page 25.
VEL
Trig Velocity sets the velocity of the sequencer’s note trigs.
LEN
Trig Length sets the length of the note trig. In LIVE RECORDING mode, the duration of pressing the
[TRIG] keys overrides this general setting.
PROB
Trig Probability sets the probability that the trigs on the track plays or not. The probability outcome is
re-evaluated every time a trig is set to play. The default setting is 100%, meaning that all the trigs on the
track plays every time. This parameter can be parameter locked which lets you give separate trigs their
own probability.
LFO.T
LFO Trig controls if the LFO will be trigged or not.
