Pioneer Squid - Toraiz- Patterns & Pattern Set mode - (Song Mode)

Patterns
This is where midi data is stored.
Each instrument (a drum, a sample or a synth) can have up to 64 sequences or patterns associated with it. 
The data is stored on 4 pages containing 16 patterns per page.
Patterns are like clips in abelton live.
 
 Pattern Set Mode
Pattern set mode is like the song mode on many sequencers.
Here you can recall & load 1 to 16 patterns at once
It saves combinations of patterns.
 
This is useful if you want to perform your songs live. 
It helps you to easily create beginning, middle and end sections for your tracks.
 
This works like scenes in Native Instruments machine or Abelton.
 
To enter Pattern Set press "SHIFT + Pattern".
The PATTERN button will flash.
 There is no chaining sadly.

How to enter patterns into each Pattern Set
1. Select your patterns
   (Press the Track button + the pad (pads) with the track/s you want to add).
2. Enter pattern set mode .
   Hold the  <SHIFT> + <Pattern> button together.
3. Press the pad you wish to assign to that pattern set. 
4. Repeat the process.
    You can have up to 16 patterns in each pattern set.
    Thus, using Pattern Set mode, you can load up to 16 patterns at once.
 
 
Deleting a pattern set
1. Enter pattern set mode .
   Hold the  <SHIFT> + <Pattern> button together.
2. Hold the  <COPY> + <PASTE> button together.
3. Press the pad you wish deleted.
    The light of this pad should turn off.
