Use the part keys to select the part that you want to edit.

Drum part

The step keys will light to indicate the trigger locations for that part within the rhythm pattern. During playback, the currently-playing step will also light.

accented volume.

Synth part

When you press a synth part key, the key will light and that part will be selected. With the KEYBOARD key lit, you can play the part using the step keys as a keyboard

The way in which the step keys will light at this time will depend on the status of the KEYBOARD key.

On (lit): The keys corresponding to each pitch will light successively during playback to indicate the pitch that is sounding at that moment.

Off (dark): The keys will light at the trigger locations of the phrase pattern for that part.

Accent part

When you press an accent part key, the key will light and that part will be selected. At this time, the step keys will light to indicate the accented locations of that accent pattern.
