to enter the chain mode. Chain mode allows to select multiple
patterns to be played in sequence. Use PARAM1 to set ACTION
(PERFORM/EDIT/DELETE).

Chain perform mode
This mode is enabled immediately after you enter chain mode.
The chain of each track is displayed on the pad.
The pad of the pattern that is currently playing lights up.
The pad whose pattern has been registered lights up faintly.
Pressing a pad in a chain will force that pattern to be
loaded next, according to the timing selected via PARAM3.
TIP Pressing the pad while holding down the PATTERNS button
displays the pattern information.
TIP Turn the PARAM2 knob to set the timing to move to the next pattern.
Chain edit mode
This mode is used to align patterns to be played back in a chain.
Press the pad on the position to be set to display the screen
for selecting a pattern from 1 to 16 patterns (chain set).
A chain can be inserted by pressing the pad while holding

The pattern is deleted, and the remaining patterns are
shifted to the left.

Gate mode

Press the GATE button to enter gate mode. This mode is used to
set each sequence step to On or Off, and specify the step length
or the playback probability. For steps set to Off (button light off),
no signal is output from the CV/GATE output jack during playback.
