99 Patterns, 99 Mixes
Every pattern carries its own mixer state. Switching patterns swaps the mix with the beat — no snapshot juggling, no extra recall step.
Pattern Structure
Patterns are the building blocks of your sequences. Each pattern can hold up to 4 bars of music at 96 PPQN resolution.
The pattern list starts with 8 slots to keep things tidy. Click the + row at the bottom to reveal 8 more at a time, up to the full 99. Loading a project auto-expands the list to show every pattern that has content.
Multi-Track Recording
Each pattern has 16 tracks. Tracks can be assigned to different programs, allowing layered kits within a single pattern.
Recording Modes
Record as you play. Notes are captured with timing and velocity. Use quantize to tighten the grid.
Manually step through positions and place notes precisely. No timing pressure.
Add to an existing pattern without erasing. Layer kicks, snares, and hats in separate passes.
Hold notes to erase them as the pattern plays. Scrub mistakes in real-time.
Grid Editing
Beyond recording, you can draw notes straight onto the pattern grid. Strokes are interpolated so fast drags never skip a cell.
Drag across empty cells to add notes along the stroke. Existing notes underneath are left untouched.
Hold Option and drag to remove every note the stroke crosses. Option-click removes a single note.
Shift-drag, or drag from an existing note, to marquee-select. Double-click a note to delete it.
Quantization
Snap notes to the grid during or after recording. Multiple grid resolutions available:
Swing
Three swing styles with six intensity levels. Apply swing to push off-beat notes for that classic drum machine feel.
8th-note swing. Classic hip-hop bounce.
16th-note swing. Tighter, funkier groove.
16th-note with softened deviation (~70%). Dusty and loose.
Transport
Per-Pattern Mixer
Each pattern stores its own mixer state — levels, pans, sends, and mutes. When you switch patterns, the mix changes with it. This enables arrangement-level mixing without automation lanes.
Undo / Redo
Full pattern history with undo and redo. Made a mistake? Step back. Changed your mind? Step forward. The history is preserved per pattern.
