Notes from the docs, various YouTube videos, and Roland training sessions.

  • Hold Sel for the track to show level, pan, delay, reverb values
    • Use C1-C4 to change values, freeing up knob assigns (Filter, Mod, FX knobs)
    • C1 Level, C2 Pan, C3 Delay, C4 Reverb
  • Hold Shift and turn any knob to see value without changing it
    • Release shift at any angle to leave knob without have changed anything
  • Func+Note turns on Arp
  • Sh+Note
    • Set Key, Scale to simplify pads
      • Instead of keyboard you get next 16 notes from 1st in current octave
      • Example of C major, C2-C3 on bottom row, C3-C4 on top row
      • Pentatonic will be C2-F3 on bottom row, C3-F4 on top row
    • Chord designer type 2 (adds in more than 1+5)
      • Default is power chord, even if you choose 1-3-5
      • Sh+Note Key is used with type 2
      • ex: 1-3-5 in C major will play major triad when you press C
      • but minor triad for E, and I suspect 1-3-5-7 will use a flat 7
  • Press Clip to see DAW like Clip view on pads
    • Avoids scrolling on LCD and can select multiple clips at once
    • Step buttons are clip row
    • Top pad row is current clip row, each pad is a track
    • Bottom pad row is clip row below current clip row
  • Press Mute to access Cue mode
    • Depending on settings can isolate track to headphones to edit in real time
    • Can also use to mute groups of tracks
  • Mute+SEL to mute track, like if you've isolate drums/bass and you are in the break
  • Mute+Pad to mute specific pad during play, like kick drum
  • Scatter MFX can be quick access to 2x parallel MFX
    • This could give Pocket Operator style live FX
  • Note+Step adds substeps for drums up to flam
    • Chord+drum pad are triplets (and do not quantatize)
  • Samples can't auto-slice after import, choose edit
    • In auto-slice click C1 to merge slices
  • Drum No-Sus only plays as long as held, can use Tie
    • Also possible to edit Instrument AENV Time 3 (Sus), 4 (Release) to 1024 for Levels and times
  • Sidechain option
    • Sound design add a Saw Up LFO synced to 1/4 controlling Amp (Vol)
