PAD / Q-LINK KNOB CONTROLS
8. Q-LINK KNOBS – Use these touch-sensitive knobs to adjust various parameters and settings. The LEDs
surrounding each knob indicate the knob's current position.
9.
Q-LINK TRIGGER – Hold this button down, then touch one of the Q-LINK KNOBS to make that knob's
parameter's value jump to its minimum or maximum (depending on the Trig parameter in the software).
10. PADS – Use these pads to trigger drum hits or other samples in your software. The pads are velocity-
sensitive and pressure-sensitive, which makes them very responsive and intuitive to play.
11.
PAD BANK BUTTONS – These 4 buttons switch among Pad Banks A – H. Between these 8 banks with 16
pads per bank, you can access up to 128 MIDI events using the pads.
12. PAD ASSIGN / PAD COPY – Press this button to assign a sample to a pad. In the display, the 4x4 grid
that appears represents the 16 pads. Use the CURSOR BUTTONS to navigate through the grid, and use
the DATA DIAL or -/+ buttons to select a Program (when the Program field is highlighted) or a sample
(when a pad is highlighted).
Hold down SHIFT and press this button to copy the samples and parameters from one pad to another. Use
the CURSOR BUTTONS to select the From Pad ("source") or To Pads ("destination") field and hit a pad to
select it (you can copy to multiple pads). Use the F-BUTTONS to confirm or cancel the operation.
13. FULL LEVEL / HALF LEVEL – Press this button to activate/deactivate Full
Level. When activated, the pads always play back at a maximum velocity (127),
no matter how hard or soft you hit them.
Hold down SHIFT and press this button to activate/deactivate Half Level. When
activated, the pads always play back at half-velocity (63).
14.
16 LEVEL – Press this button to activate/deactivate 16 Level. When activated,
the last pad that was hit will be temporarily copied to all 16 pads. The pads will
now output the same note number as the initial pad, but a selectable parameter
will be fixed at the values shown in the diagram on the right, regardless of how
hard you hit them. The available parameters are velocity, tuning, filter, layer,
attack or decay.
15.
NOTE REPEAT / LATCH – Hold this button down and press a pad to retrigger that pad's sample at a rate
based on the current Tempo and Time Correct settings (the available Time Correct settings will appear in
the display, which you can select with the F-BUTTONS). Hold down SHIFT and press this button to latch
the Note Repeat feature. When latched, the button does not need to be held down for Note Repeat to be
activated. Press NOTE REPEAT once more to unlatch it.
