On-Screen Keyboard
When tapping the [keyb]-button, an on-screen keyboard appears for live playing:
[ up ] [ down ] [ left ] [ rght ] [ sseq ] [ mtrx ] [ song ] [ scen ] ( bpm )
[ - ] [ V1 ] [ V2 ] [ V3 ] [ V4 ] [ V5 ] [ V6 ] [ + ] [ shft ] // velocity bar
[ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ ] [ sens ] [ quan ] [ copy ]
[ ] [ C#3 ] [ D#3 ] [ ] [ F#3 ] [ G#3 ] [ A#3 ] [ ] [ pste ]
[ C3 ] [ D3 ] [ E3 ] [ F3 ] [ G3 ] [ A3 ] [ B3 ] [ C4 ] [ undo ] // base octave + 1
[ ] [ C#2 ] [ D#2 ] [ ] [ F#2 ] [ G#2 ] [ A#2 ] [ ] [ ]
[ C2 ] [ D2 ] [ E2 ] [ F2 ] [ G2 ] [ A2 ] [ B2 ] [ C3 ] [ keyb ] // base octave
[ ] [ C#1 ] [ D#1 ] [ ] [ F#1 ] [ G#1 ] [ A#1 ] [ ] [ fill ]
[ C1 ] [ D1 ] [ E1 ] [ F1 ] [ G1 ] [ A1 ] [ B1 ] [ C2 ] [ trns ] // base octave - 1
There are 3 octaves simultaniously available; the middle one will be the base octave, decided by the default note configured for this track. The [up] and [down] button allow you to shift in octaves.
The [V1] to [V6] button can be used to set a different velocity. The default value will be the velocity set for the default note for this track.
If you're using a touch-sensitive Midi controller (like the LaunchPad X for example), you can enable / disable touch sensitivity with the [sens]-button. When enabled, the velocity bar acts like a sensitivity modifier: lowering it will make the buttons less touch-sensitive, so you need to press them harder; raising it decreases the sensitivity.
Tapping the [keyb]-button twice will enable recording mode. The [quan] button can be used to enable/disable quantization while recording.
The bottom row (base octave - 1) will also double as a progress bar to give an indication on how far the current pattern is with playing. This will help when you want to start recording on the beginning of a track.
Undo
Any time you put the keyboard in recording mode, the current steps of the track is stored in the "undo"-buffer. So if you're not happy with you recording, you can simply tap [undo] to restore the steps of the track.
Just as with the track editor, holding the [undo]-button will save the current steps of the track in the "undo"-buffer. So this mechanic will allow you to undo your previous recording, even if you don't switch between live and recording mode.
