1) How do i copy an entire grid? and paste it into another?

You use the shift key and then use the Arrows around the Jog dial or use the Jog dial itself.

If you want to copy everything, then start with it in the lower left hand corner, use shfit
and move jog wheel all the way to the right, then use the arrows above the jog wheel to
move up through the "pads" now you can see all 16 pads highlighted, and select "copy".

Now you can paste this where you want.

2) How do i clone a sequence?

*In "Main" page

* Move cursor down to Sequence name

* Hit "Window" key

" Select Copy and tell it what sequence number you want to copy it to.

3) How do i specify the length, tempo and time sequence for all the sequences?

Are you talking about setting defaults, so that all sequences will have this value.
or are you talking about how to edit these values all at once, for all sequences ?

4) How do i make all 16 pads play diferent pitches of the same sample?

Make sure you are using the latest OS and hit "16 levels" button and change from
Velocity to Note and make sure you hit "F6" To turn it on.

5) Why cant i hear the effects that iam trying to apply? i set an effect and press a pad and dont hear no change.

You have to turn it up in the "Mixing" board.

Here's what you do.

* Hit Effects button to go to Effects page and select an FX for Slot A

* Hit Mixing Board and go to the part that you want to add the FX. Move
cursor down to FX send

* Change from Off to A

* Use Qlink Knob 1 to turn the FX send up to your liking.


If you want FX for certain PADs and not the full program, then in the "mixer" page,
then select F2 for Pad which takes you to the "Pad Mixer" and you can change
the Pad settings so that they either use the Multi's FX, their own selection, or OFF, so they
won't be affected.

Enjoy :)
