TŒRN — Sequencing

Draw mode (the default view)

Draw mode is what greets you on power-up. Every voice is visible at full intensity; the red playhead line runs across all rows at once; the cursor is the focus point.

Example draw grid: notes from four voices, playhead behind column 7.

1 Encoder 1

Turn	Move row / voice	Choose the lane under the cursor; row colour follows the voice.
Short	Erase note	Removes the note at the cursor (does not mute the lane — mute is encoder 2).
Long	Erase while moving	Latches erase: keep holding and turn to wipe a trail. Held together with encoder 4 long, clears the whole page across all voices.

2 Encoder 2

Turn	Page or per-row vol	Determined by SETTINGS → CTRL: PAGE flips pattern pages, VOL rides volume for the current row.
Short	Mute lane	Toggles the current voice between sounding and silent. Overlay detail: Advanced → Mutes.
Long	Mute overlay	Hold to flip several lanes; release to return. See Advanced → Mutes.

3 Encoder 3

Turn	Fast filter	Twists the parameter chosen as default on the current channel's filter page.
Short	Play / pause	Transport toggle for the sequencer.
Long	Open filters	Jumps into the filter editor for the focused voice (FX-capable channels).

4 Encoder 4

Turn	Move column (time)	Slides the cursor across steps 1…16.
Short	Place note	Writes a note at the cursor if the cell is empty.
Long	Paint trail or note detail	On an empty cell: latch paint and turn to draw a trail. On an existing note: open the per-step editor.

Single mode (focus on one voice)

Same logic as draw, but only the selected voice is drawn at full intensity; everything else fades to its base tint. Good for working on a single instrument without visual noise from the others.

Single mode: focus voice is bright white, neighbouring voices show as dim base colours.

Enter single mode with hold L (touch 1) from draw (hold again to return). All gestures from draw apply, but: copy/paste only grabs the focused channel; the clear-page chord (encoder 1 + encoder 4 both long) only clears the focused channel; randomize from the page row affects only the focused channel.

Set triggers & remove triggers

Every lit step on the grid is a trigger — “play this voice here.” Placing steps is paint; clearing them is unpaint. How your hands do that depends on SETTINGS → DRAW.

L+R vs R — pick a handedness

Both modes use the same grid. The difference is which encoder writes and which one erases (or does something else).

	L+R (default)	R
Hands	Two hands — left on enc 1, right on enc 4	One hand — mostly enc 4
Set a trigger	Enc 4 short (or hold + turn to paint a trail)	Enc 4 short on an empty cell (or hold + turn to paint)
Remove a trigger	Enc 1 short (or hold + turn to wipe)	Enc 4 short on a lit cell (or hold + turn to erase)
Choose the voice	Enc 1 turn	Enc 1 turn (same)
Enc 1 press	Erase	Temporary full mute (performance break) — see below
Best for	Careful editing: one hand owns the row, one owns time	Live one-hand drawing and quick breaks

Flip the mode anytime under SETTINGS → DRAW. Your pattern stays put — only the gestures change.

Set triggers (paint) — L+R

Left hand = which voice. Right hand = which step, and the pen that writes.

Turn encoder 1 — move to another voice row.
Turn encoder 4 — move along time (steps).
Tap encoder 4 — place a trigger at the cursor.
Hold encoder 4 and turn — paint a continuous trail of triggers as you move.

L+R paint: enc 4 writes along the timeline while enc 1 picks the lane.

Remove triggers (unpaint) — L+R

Same mode, opposite hand: encoder 1 is the eraser.

Tap encoder 1 — clear the trigger under the cursor.
Hold encoder 1 and turn — wipe a trail of triggers.

You never “toggle” with one knob in L+R — write and erase stay on separate encoders so you can’t accidentally flip the wrong way mid-gesture.

R mode — set & remove on one encoder

With DRAW = R, encoder 4 does both jobs: tap an empty cell to set, tap a lit cell to remove. Hold and turn to paint or erase a trail — the latch follows whatever was under the cursor when you pressed.

Tap encoder 4 — toggle that cell (empty ↔ trigger).
Hold encoder 4 and turn — continuous paint if you started on empty, continuous erase if you started on a trigger.
Turn encoder 1 — still chooses the voice row.

R mode: one hand on enc 4 for set/remove; enc 1 is free for breaks.

R mode bonus — temporary full mute

Because erase moved off encoder 1, that encoder’s press becomes a performance mute: everything goes silent so you can drop a break. How you leave the mute decides what comes back:

Encoder 1 again — restore the mutes you had before
Encoder 2 — only channels 1 and 2 unmuted
Encoder 3 — apply the custom set from SETTINGS → MUTE
Encoder 4 — unmute everything

SETTINGS → MUTE is that custom “come back to these lanes” mask — not a gate on which rows you can paint. Build a “kick + snare only” return if you want breaks that land on just those voices.

Need to wipe a whole page? On the page row, unpaint that page’s strip LED with encoder 1 (L+R) — see Pages+More → Delete a page. Or use the enc 1 + enc 4 long chord / single-mode clear on the current edit page.
