Type

Type decides what a step plays: a single note, an arpeggio, a chord or a strummed chord. The type also decides which patterns are offered on the Voicing page. The value pads on this page are the same keyboard as on Notes, so you can edit the notes here too.

Where

Keys > Type (page 4). Hold EDIT, tap 23 (Keys), tap 44. The four step types are on the options row, pads 21 to 24.

Hold step 3 (1), then tap 22 for Arp (2). The lit pad is the type the step plays. The value pads show the note keyboard.

How to use it

1. Hold a step to select it.
2. Tap a type pad on the options row:

Pad	Type	Plays
21	Mono	One note
22	Arp	The step’s notes one after another, in the order of the arpeggio pattern picked on Voicing
23	Chord	All of the step’s notes together, plus the chord shape picked on Voicing, built on the step’s first note
24	Strum	The step’s notes with a short delay between them, like a strummed chord

The lit pad shows the step’s current type.

Options and defaults

Item	Setting
Type	Set per step, pads 21 to 24
No step selected	Pads 21 to 24 set the track’s default type

Notes to know

• Changing a step’s type rebuilds its sub-steps from the first pattern of the new type. Pick the exact pattern afterwards on Voicing.
• A Mono step has no voicing patterns, so Voicing does nothing on it.
• Arp and Strum need more than one note in the step to be audible as such. Add notes on the keyboard.
• The keyboard taps on this page add and remove notes exactly as on Notes, and the octave pads 41 and 48 work too.
• The arpeggio options, octaves and seed, are on Voice.
• Use Notes to change the notes themselves.
