Patterns are designed to be arranged in the Playlist as Pattern Clips to create a song.Įach row of controls in the Channel Rack belongs to a single Channel instrument. As the pattern number is changed, note how the pattern data visible in the Channel Rack also changes, reflecting the selected pattern. Patterns include Piano roll, Step Sequencer and Automation data. The note and automation data visible across all Channels is known as a ' pattern'. The Step Sequencer, ( Video Here) is a pattern-based grid sequencer ideal for creating drum loops and simple melodies. The Channel buttons also access Instrument Channel Settings (where a Mixer track is set) or the associated Piano roll.

When Instrument Channels are added or removed from the project the height of the Channel Rack will change dynamically. The audio from each Channel is sent to one of the Mixer Tracks for effects processing and level mixing. There is one Channel button ( 9) per instrument. Music data can come in the form of Step sequences and Piano roll scores. Patterns are not limited to a single instrument as they are in most other sequencers. In other words, all patterns play from the same set of instruments. Every pattern has access to all instruments in the rack. The Channel Rack holds instruments that create sound and internal generators that control automation.
