What the f*ck on God's good earth does Note Repeat do and how does it work? I never really even bothered with it... Then I hear tons of people talk about how it's a really unique feature... So I look it up in the manual and can't find it because of it's lack of a f*cking index... Someone break it down for me

Have you really never found out how it works!?!

Ok, get a sequence playing. Hold down that Note Repeat button. Press a pad with a sample assigned to it.......a snare is a good choice.......

Note repeat repeats notes based on the timing settings. For example if you have the timing set to 1/8 and press down the note repeat and press a pad, it will repeat the notes at every 1/8th..


Simple as 3.14

and try setting the note value slider to filter on a snare sound then hit note repeat with your index finger, use the rest of your hand to manioulate the slider and bang on the pad with your other hand in a rythmatic fashion.

No need to stretch your fingers baby...

Press MAIN SCREEN while you're holding down NOTE REPEAT to get into note repeat mode. To get out of note repeat mode just press NOTE REPEAT again.

yeah i've tried a couple times and no dice . . . doesn't really bother me though cause its not much of a stretch. the only thing i really jones for is to be able to play multiple sequences at the same time. id kill for that.

Someone answers it... Somehow I don't remember asking in my question for 2 d!cks to chime in with a f*ckin smarta$$ comment....

Relax homo. Don't post questions like that if you can't handle the responses.

And no, I am not interested in any sorts of "suck sessions", so don't offer.

What are you, like 14 years old?
