BONUS PRO-TIP: WRITING YOUR OWN PATTERNS
Set the pedal to Pattern Mode, and set the Pattern number to 8. Then use MIDI CC messages in the range 110–117 to set the values for each step:
CC110: Step 1
CC111: Step 2
…
CC117: Step 8
Each value you send on a given CC message sets the amount of phasing for that particular step. When you save the preset, these values are also saved with it.
