THE SEQUENCER - BASICS

About the two Views
While the left part of the sequencer area always contains the track list, there
are two different view modes for the right part: Arrange View and Edit View.
You change between the two view by clicking the corresponding button in
the top left corner of the sequencer area.
Arrange View
In the Arrange View, all tracks are shown, with colored bars indicating re-
corded events. Use this mode to get an overview of your arrangement, and
when you want to perform large scale editing such as rearranging whole sec-
tions of your song, etc.
Edit View
In the Edit View, you get a close-up look at the recorded events on a single
track at a time. When the Edit View is selected, the right part of the se-
quencer area can be divided into several horizontal lanes, showing different
types of events (notes, REX slices, drum sounds, controllers, etc). This is the
view mode of choice for fine editing of your recording, for when you want to
draw notes, controllers and other events manually.
! For details about editing, see the electronic documentation.
About the Ruler, Song
Position and Locators
Regardless of which view mode is selected, you will find a horizontal ruler at
the top of the sequencer display. This indicates the meter positions, that is,
the positions in bars and beats.
➜ The numbering and detail of the ruler depends on the horizontal
magnification.
At a medium zoom setting, odd bars will be shown with a bar number and even bars
will be indicated by a mark.
If you have zoomed in fully, each bar will be numbered, and every 1/32 note position
will be indicated by a mark.
In the ruler, you will also find four different position markers, each with a sep-
arate “flag”:
✪ The End (E) marker indicates the end of the song. The program uses
this information when exporting the song as an audio file and when
you scroll horizontally in the sequencer area.
Playback or recording will not stop at the End marker.
Click this button to select the Arrange view.
Click this button to select the Edit view.
This is the song position,
indicating at which position
playback happens.
This is the End marker. This informs
Reason about where your song ends
(see the note below).
This is the left locator. When using the
Loop mode (see page 60), the left
locator governs the start position of the
loop.
This is the right locator. When using the
Loop mode, this governs the end
position of the loop.
