note copy. Then hold the [TRIG] key for the step you want to paste the trig to, and press
[STOP] to perform the paste note operation.

In GRID RECORDING mode, you can verify which steps have parameter locks by
looking at the <TRIG> LED’s. A firmly lit <TRIG> LED means that the correspond-
ing step has no parameters locked, whereas a rapid interval flash indicates it does
have one or more parameter locks.

A pattern can have a total of 62 individually locked parameters divided freely
between all tracks and parameters. When a parameter is locked on one step, that
parameter can be locked to individual values on all the steps of the track.

PARAMETER LOCKS IN LIVE RECORDING MODE
In LIVE RECORDING mode, you can record parameter locks in real-time. To do this, follow
the steps below:

1.

Begin with following the instruction in section “RECORDING PREPARATIONS”, on
page 47

2.

To start recording in LIVE RECORDING mode, hold [REC] and then press [PLAY]. This
starts the sequencer recording and the record LED will start flashing.

3.

Record parameter locks by adjusting the corresponding DATA ENTRY knob while the
sequencer is playing and recording. When changing a parameter, the parameter lock will
be set to the next trig step played on the track. If a parameter is not changed between
two trigs no parameter lock will be recorded for that step.

4.

To remove parameter locks you need to enter GRID RECORDING mode and follow the
instructions in “PARAMETER LOCKS IN GRID RECORDING MODE” on page 57

It is often a good idea to edit and fine tune the parameter locks in GRID RECORD-
ING mode, after recording them in LIVE RECORDING mode.

ADVANCED SEQUENCER CONTROL

For users that seek the most control over the creative process the Monomachine offer
unique sequencer features for fine tuned sequencing.

TRIG TRACKS
For each track you have access to three individual sub tracks named trig tracks, offering
individual control over the amplitude envelope, the filter envelope and the LFO trigs. This
means you can separate pitch changes from envelopes and LFO trigging, allowing for very
in-depth track sequencing.
