ANALOG RYTM CONTROLS
15
respectively (provided they are set to their default channels 1-12). These note values map to each of the twelve
tracks, regardless of which track is active.
MIDI note values 12-59 (corresponding to notes C1 - B4, the second through to the fifth octave in the MIDI
range) will trigger the Sound of the active track in any of its 48 chromatic variations (as if played by the pads in
CHROMATIC mode, see section below), from lowest to highest pitch. The track Sound needs to be chromatic
enabled if any variation is to be heard. Activate via the SOUND SETTINGS found in “SOUND MENU” on
page 25.
MIDI program change messages 0-127 will select pattern 1-128 (A01 - H16) on the Analog Rytm.
Additionally, MIDI CC and NRPN messages can be sent to control various aspects of the Analog Rytm. See
“Appendix C: MIDI“ for a complete specification.
MODE KEYS
There are four main keys with which you change the mode of operation on the Analog Rytm: [MUTE], [CHRO-
MATIC], [SCENE] and [PERFORMANCE]. The red LEDs above these keys show if the modes are active (full-
bright) or inactive (off).
MUTE MODE
To activate the MUTE mode, press the [MUTE] key. To deactivate, press again. Mute any of the twelve drum
tracks in this mode. Unlike the CHROMATIC mode, it makes no difference which track is active when this mode
is on. All tracks are accessed simultaneously. Press any of the [PADS] to mute the corresponding track. Press
again to unmute. The color of the <PADS> indicate the mute status. Unlit <PADS> are muted. Green <PADS>
are audible.
Press and hold [FUNCTION] and then any of the [PADS] in order to preselect a mute, or mute/unmute several-
tracks in one go. Once you release [FUNCTION], the selected mutes will come into effect. Preselected mutes
are shown as <PADS> of sky blue color.
Press [RETRIG] and one of the [PADS] if you wish to activate solo, in other words mute all tracks except the
one selected. Press again to deactivate solo. Keeping [RETRIG] pressed, multiple tracks may be solo activated/
deactivated. Solo activated <PADS> are turquoise.
The tracks you have muted in this mode stay muted even if the pattern is changed or a new kit is loaded. After
exiting MUTE mode, the LED light atop the [MUTE] key will stay lit, half-bright red, if any of the tracks are muted.
The MUTE mode is a part of the active state of the machine. It is not stored to the current kit or pattern. Mutes
activated in MUTE mode are the master mutes, and they will override any TRIG MUTE patterns on the
sequencer or any SONG MUTE program on any pattern of the active song.
CHROMATIC MODE
Pressing the [CHROMATIC] key will turn the [PADS] of the Analog Rytm into a chromatic keyboard, in the musi-
cal as well as the literal sense. Press again to deactivate. When in this mode, you will be able to play the Sound
of the active track chromatically. To play another track Sound chromatically, change active track by pressing
[TRACK] and one of the [PADS].
Any track Sound may be played in this mode using the 12 pads. The chromatic note pitch is linearly increased
for each successive pad pressed: left to right, bottom to top. Twelve pads in succession make up one octave.
The range spans four octaves, middle, 1 up and 2 down. The middle octave has sky blue color <PADS>, the two
below are of violet and dark blue color, in that order, and the one above is of olivine color. Reach higher or lower
octaves, one row at a time, by pressing [ARROW] keys [UP] or [DOWN], respectively.
The Synth part, the Sample part or both at once of any Sound may be chromatic enabled. This is done in the
SOUND SETTINGS. See section “SOUND MENU” on page 25.
Notes trigged chromatically can be recorded on the sequencer. Find out how this is done in sections “GRID
RECORDING MODE“ and “LIVE RECORDING MODE” on page 34.
