STEP 1
Begin by selecting a Pattern and pressing PLAY.
STEP 2
Press and release the FILL button while the main A Pattern is playing. You’ll hear a drum fill
that leads right into the associated B Pattern.
STEP 3
Press the FILL button again. A different fill will transition from the B Pattern back into the A
Pattern.
STEP 4
Fills do not always have to be transitional Patterns. Suppose an A Pattern is playing. If you
press the FILL button, a fill will start – but this time, keep the FILL button held down until after
the fill has finished playing. This cancels the transition to the alternate pattern (in this
example, the A pattern would continue playing).
The PerformancePad Pro allows you to play sequences of Pattern by triggering Patterns with the pads.
This mode is called Pattern Play Mode.
STEP 1
Press the PTN PLAY button – this will enter Pattern Play
Mode. The display will indicate PATTERN PLAY.
STEP 2
Try tapping a pad. The Pattern associated with the
pad will begin playing. As the Pattern reaches its end,
it will continue to loop from the beginning.
STEP 3
Now try hitting another pad. The Pattern associated
with the pad will begin playing as soon as the
previously selected Pattern reaches its end.
STEP 4
To change the Pattern assigned to a pad, press the
PAGE UP button.
Press the pad which you would like to modify.
Now use the VALUE dial, INC / DEC, or number buttons to
select the Pattern to be triggered with the pad. You may also
specify A, B or Fill for the selected Pattern.
Finally, press PTN PLAY again to exit the edit screen and continue performing.
