THE SEQUENCER

Background: How recorded controllers are handled

Even though the recording procedures are practically the same, the se-

quencer handles controllers differently from notes. While each recorded note

is a separate event, there are no “controller events” as such in the se-

quencer. Instead, it works like this:

Each sequencer track has a number of controller “subtracks” (one for each

automatable parameter in the corresponding device). A controller subtrack

can be viewed as a length of magnetic tape, which you can fill with controller

data.

When you haven’t yet recorded any automation for a parameter, its subtrack

is empty. The parameter is not automated.

As soon as you record anything for the controller, anywhere in the song, the

whole subtrack

is filled with controller data:

This makes it possible to set up a static mix first, and then add some auto-

mated parameter changes anywhere in the song while maintaining the static

values elsewhere in the song.

Recording Pattern Changes

If your song contains pattern devices, you probably want to use more than a

single pattern throughout the song. To facilitate this you can record pattern

changes in the sequencer (or draw them in manually, as described on page

25).

1. If you want to use the same pattern for the main part of the song

(and only want to add some variation patterns here and there), make

sure this “main pattern” is selected before you start recording.

When you first record a pattern change somewhere in the song, the orig-

inally selected pattern will be inserted throughout the rest of the song.

This is similar to the way controller automation works - see page 6.

2. Locate the sequencer track for the device, and make sure MIDI is

routed to the track.

That is, the MIDI connector symbol should be shown in the In column for

the track in the track list.

3. Start recording from the desired position.

When playback starts, the pattern device will automatically start (pro-

vided the pattern section is enabled on the device).

4. During recording, change patterns with the Bank and Pattern but-

tons on the device panel.

Make sure to change the patterns slightly in advance - the actual pattern

change will be recorded (and happen) on the next downbeat according to

the main sequencer time signature.

5. When you are done, stop recording.

The green frame around the pattern buttons indicates that pattern changes are

automated for the device.

In the Arrange view, recorded pattern changes are indicated as dark yellow bars

(the pale yellow “strip” indicates that the track contains any pattern change data at

all).

This is the section you recorded.

This is the original, static value for the parameter.
