KO II organizes your music in layers. here's how it works:

project (9 total) - like a song file, stores everything

• hold [main] + pad 1-9 to load a project
• projects 1-5 have factory sounds pre-loaded
• projects 6-9 are empty for your own stuff

group (4 per project: A, B, C, D) - like instrument sections

• each holds 12 sounds on the pads
• all 4 groups play together as your full beat
• recommended: A=drums, B=bass, C=melodies, D=samples

pattern (99 per group) - a recorded loop

• this is what you create when you record
• each group has its own pattern playing
• hold group button + [-/+] to switch patterns

scene (99 per project) - a snapshot of your arrangement

• remembers which pattern each group is playing
• scene 1 might be intro, scene 2 verse, scene 3 chorus
• hold [main] + [-/+] to switch scenes
• you switch scenes manually during performance (no auto-chain)
