pattern - a recorded sequence for one group (your drum loop, bass line, melody, etc.)

the basics:

• 99 patterns available per group
• each pattern can be 1-99 bars long
• patterns are independent (group A pattern 2 + group B pattern 5 = fine)

see current pattern: hold the group button - display shows the number

change patterns:

• hold group + [-/+] to scroll
• or hold group + type number on pads (01-99)

change pattern length: hold [rec] + [-/+] to extend or shorten

copy a pattern to make variations:

1. [shift] + C twice → display shows "PTN"
2. switch to destination pattern number
3. [shift] + D to paste

dub technique: create multiple pattern variations then switch between them live for that classic dub mixing style
