If Scratch: If you set the ribbon to control the scratch function, the SU700 maps the first part of the sample along the span of the ribbon, starting from the bottom of the ribbon. If you set your finger on the bottom of the ribbon and run it upwards, you can scratch out the sound in the forward direction. If you run your finger in the other direction, you can scratch the sound out backwards.

Recording Ribbon Events

Any ribbon action you apply during song recording will be recorded, just like regular knob action, into the corresponding track. If you select a knob function that supports quantizing (→ p.174), then the ribbon-generated input will be quantized. If you use the “scratch” function on a looping track (LOOP or COMPOSED LOOP track), the handling is the same as for a pad “roll”: the scratch sound temporarily cancels out the loop sound.

Using Ribbon Controller in Real Time

You can use the ribbon controller while the sequencer is in STANDBY or PLAY mode to adjust the knob setting or to scratch out the sound. Note that if you use the scratch function while the song is playing, the handling is the same as for a pad “roll”: the scratch sound temporarily cancels out the sound recorded on the track.
