Editing Functions and Pattern Presets

The editing functions and pattern presets that appear

below each matrix can be used to quickly change all

steps in a pattern.

Up and Down Arrows

: All steps are

moved up or down by the smallest unit of

movement allowed by the current

resolution (see above).

Holding down the [ALT] key with the Up and Down

Arrows will instantly move the pattern to the top or

bottom of the matrix, leaving the pattern’s shape intact.

Right and Left Arrows

: All steps are moved one position

to the left or right.

Expansion and Compression

:These buttons

vertically expand (separate) or contract (bring

closer) all steps. Holding down the mouse button

will cause repeated expansion or contraction.

Holding down the [ALT] key with the Expansion Arrows

will expand all steps so that the the top or lowest step will

jump onto the maximum position. All other steps will be

moved in relation to that.

Mirror steps

: The upper mirror symbol will flip

all steps across the vertical axis (from right to

left), and the lower symbol flips all steps across

the horizontal axis (from up to down).

Presets: 

The preset buttons

are used to recall one of ten

standard shapes into the

pattern matrix.

The default presets are are bipolar with both positive and

negative modulation amounts. To load a preset shape

with only positive modulation, hold down the [CTRL] key

when clicking on the preset. To load a preset shape with

only negative modulation, hold down the [CTRL] +

[SHIFT] keys when clicking on the preset.

Pressing the [ALT] key when selecting a preset will load

the vertical inverse of the default preset shape (i.e. a

mirror across the horizontal axis).
