®ÂØÒÅˆÎ MC-909 Getting Started Guide

Whatza Pattern?

One of the things you’ll do most often on the MC-909 is select and play patterns. You can play

one pattern over and over, play one after the other on-the-fly, or chain them together in songs.

Obviously, it’s a good idea to know just what a pattern is.

The Pattern Play Screen

To put it simply, in the MC-909, a pattern is a chunk of music. More specifically, a pattern contains:

• a sequence—A pattern’s sequence can be anywhere from

one bar to 998 bars long.

• an effect setup—Each pattern has its own settings for the

MC-909’s reverb, compressor and two MFX processors.

• a part setup—A pattern contains settings for each of its

sequence’s 16 parts. Each part has a whole bunch of its own

settings, including the patch it plays, its volume, its stereo

positioning (called “panning”), its tuning, the effects it uses

and more.

This is the patch setup for

the first factory pattern. The

screen is called the “Patch

Play” screen.

The result of all this is that each pattern contains not only its own sequenced performance, but also

its own overall sound, since it uses its own set of patches and its own effects setup.

To learn how to select patterns in Pattern mode, see Pages 24 and 25 in the MC-909 Owner’s

Manual.
