# 10.2 EDITING A PATTERN 10. THE SEQUENCER You can create one chain and it can contain any pattern in bank A–H. The chain can consist of up to 64 patterns. 1. Press [PTN], and then press [FUNC] + [YES] to open the chain creator screen. 2. Use the [LEFT]/[RIGHT] keys to select a bank (if you want to select a pattern from another bank than the current). Then press [TRIG 1–16] to select a pattern. Repeat until you have created the desired chain. 3. (Optional) Press [FUNC] + [LEFT] to delete the last pattern from the chain. 4. Press [YES] to confirm the pattern chain and close the chain creator screen. Press [NO] if you wish to cancel the pattern chain and close the chain creator screen. 5. Press [PLAY] to start the sequencer and play the chain. The chain will be looped once the final pattern of the chain has played. To exit chain mode, select a pattern or song using the normal selection process. There is also a legacy procedure for creating chains. 1. Press and hold [PTN] and then press a [TRIG 1–16] key to select the first pattern in the chain. 2. Release the [PTN] key and then press [TRIG 1–16] keys in the same order as you want the chained patterns to play. Keep a previous [TRIG] key pressed while you press the next one, the one after that and so on. You can press the same [TRIG] key again if you wish to add the pattern multiple times in a row. If you want to add a pattern from another bank, use the [LEFT]/[RIGHT] keys to select a bank and then press [TRIG 1–16] to select pattern. 3. Press [PLAY] to start the sequencer and play the chain. The chain will be looped once the final pattern of the chain has played. Please note that the chain will be lost when you create a new chain or when you select a new pattern/song. Chains cannot be saved and will be lost when you switch the Digitone II off. • Chains can be created while the sequencer is running. • You can also use MIDI program change messages from an external device to change patterns on the Digitone II. For more information, please see “13.4.1 SYNC” on page 74. 10.2 EDITING A PATTERN Digitone II offers several modes of input when creating or editing a pattern. Three of them are, GRID RE CORDING mode, LIVE RECORDING mode, and STEP RECORDING mode. In these modes, two types of trigs can be entered: Note trigs and Lock trigs. 10.2.1 TRIG TYPES A trig is a sequencer event that you can place when you want the sequencer to perform an action on the Digitone II. There are two types of trigs that you can use, note trigs and lock trigs. • NOTE TRIGS trigger preset notes or MIDI notes. • LOCK TRIGS trigger parameter locks (but do not trigger notes). For more information, please see “10.12.1 PARAMETER LOCKS” on page 50. Note trigs are indicated by red [TRIG] keys and lock trigs are indicated by yellow [TRIG] keys. Unlit [TRIG] keys indicate steps that does not contain any trigs. Read more about parameter locks in section “10.12.1 PARAMETER LOCKS” on page 50. Trigs are added differently in the sequencer, depending on whether GRID RECORDING, LIVE RECORDING, or STEP RECORDING mode is active. Note trigs can also be added in NOTE EDIT mode. 10. THE SEQUENCER 10.3 GRID RECORDING MODE GRID RECORDING is a method of composing where you use the [TRIG] keys to add trigs. 1. Press [RECORD] to enter GRID RECORDING mode. The [RECORD] key lights up red to indicate that GRID RECORDING mode is active. 2. Select the track to which you want to add trigs by pressing and holding [TRACK] and then one of the [TRIG] keys. A red [TRIG] key indicates the active track. 3. Place note trigs on the sequencer using the sixteen [TRIG] keys. To add a lock trig, press [FUNC] + [TRIG]. Quickly pressing the [TRIG] key of any of the trigs entered will remove the trig. Pressing a [TRIG] key and holding it slightly longer will prepare the trig for editing, rather than removing it. 4. Select another track, and add note trigs. Repeat the procedure for all the tracks you want to use. 5. Press [PLAY] to listen to the sequence. You can transpose a note trig by pressing and holding the [TRIG] key, and then press [+]/[-]. Add micro timing to a note trig by pressing and holding the [TRIG] key, and then press [LEFT]/[RIGHT]. For more information, please see “10.8 MICRO TIMING” on page 48. Set the retrig speed by pressing and holding the [TRIG] key while navigating to TRIG PAGE 2 keys and make the desired settings. For more information, please see “10.9 RETRIGS” on page 48, and “11.3 TRIG PAGE 2” on page 58. If the pattern contains more than 16 steps, select the pattern page you want to edit by pressing the [PAGE] key. A fully lit <PATTERN PAGE> LED shows the active pattern page. Press [RECORD] to exit the GRID RECORDING mode. • If your pattern has more than one page you can easily select which page you want to edit. Press and hold [PAGE], and then press one of the [TRIG 1–8] keys that light up to select the active page for editing. You can also cycle through the pages with the [LEFT] and [RIGHT] keys while holding [PAGE]. For more information, please see “10.11 PAGE SETUP MENU” on page 48. • You also have the possibility to select which pages of your pattern you want the se quencer to play and loop. The selected pages are then looped on playback. In GRID RECORDING mode, press and hold [PAGE], and then press [TRIG 9–16] to select which pattern pages you want to play and loop. Green [TRIG] keys shows the selected pages. The [TRIG 9–16] keys corresponds to pattern page 1–8. For example, you have an eight page pattern and you want to play and loop page 1, 2,5, and 7. To ac complish this, press and hold [PAGE] and then press [TRIG 9, 10, 13, 15]. On the top row, [TRIG 1–8], the blinking [TRIG] key shows the master playback position. On the bottom row, [TRIG 9–16], the blinking [TRIG] key shows the page currently playing. Press and hold [PAGE] and then press [NO] to resume normal playback of all pages in the pattern. • You can use an external MIDI controller such as a keyboard to input NOTE and TRIG VELOCITY data when you are in GRID RECORDING mode. Just press and hold a [TRIG] key, and then play a note on the external keyboard. The first note sets the TRIG VELOC ITY value for all notes on the trig. • Press [TRIG] + [YES] to preview a specific trig. The preview includes any parameter locks you have placed on that trig. • Press [TRIG] + [PRESET/KIT] to save the sound of a trig as a preset, taking all parame ter locks into consideration. • If you use an external MIDI controller to record to the Digitone II MIDI tracks, the se quencer receives data on the Auto MIDI channel and records on the active track. For more information, please see “13.4.3 CHANNELS” on page 76. • All trigs of a track can be shifted forwards or backward on the sequencer. While in GRID RECORDING mode, hold down [FUNC] while pressing the [LEFT]/[RIGHT]. 10.3.1 NOTE EDIT MENU The NOTE EDIT menu is part of the GRID RECORDING mode and gives you the possibility to separately edit each note of a step, even if they are part of a polyphonic chord. You can edit four different param eters. NOTE, LEN, and VEL are the same parameters that can be found on the TRIG PAGE 1. For more information, please see “11.2 TRIG PAGE 1” on page 57. The fourth parameter, TIME lets you adjust the timing of each note. You can also use the NOTE EDIT menu to add new notes. At the top of the menu you can see which step your are currently editing, written in the format Page:Step. LEVEL/DATA sets the keyboard MODE. For more information, please see “8.5.2 KEYBOARD SETUP MENU” on page 25.
