[00:00] Welcome back to a new video.
  欢迎回到新视频。

[00:02] And on this location is the Launchpad Pro.
  现在这里是 Launchpad Pro。

[00:04] Everything on this guide is in chapters.
  本指南的所有内容都已分章节。

[00:06] If you look at the description or the timeline, you can jump to a section or skip the ones you don't want.

[00:14] If you want to buy me a coffee to say thanks and help the channel keep going on, you can.
  如果你想请我喝杯咖啡以示感谢，并帮助频道继续运营，你可以这样做。

[00:20] You have links at the description for PayPal, YouTube Thanks, and Patreon.
  描述中有 PayPal、YouTube Thanks 和 Patreon 的链接。

[00:24] All right, so let's just begin.
  好了，那我们开始吧。

[00:26] This device is divided in two big parts: the standalone sequencer, the one that you have right there right now where you're playing, and then the rest of the whole device.
  这个设备分为两个大部分：独立音序器（就是你现在正在操作的那个），以及设备的其余部分。

[00:35] Now on this video, I will cover everything that you can see right here, but not the standalone sequencer.
  在这个视频中，我将涵盖你在这里能看到的所有内容，但不包括独立音序器。

[00:42] But I've recorded a dedicated video just deep diving into the sequencer and all the functions and everything that you can do with just the sequencer.
  但我录制了一个专门的视频，深入探讨了音序器以及仅使用音序器可以完成的所有功能。

[00:52] Check the links of the description or the cards at the top.
  查看描述中的链接或顶部的卡片。

[00:56] And if it's not there, it's because it was not yet released.
  如果那里没有，那是因为它还没发布。

[00:58] Okay, so in order to...
  好的，那么为了……

[01:01] To understand how this works, we need to go in order.
  要理解它是如何工作的，我们需要按顺序来。

[01:03] If you go to the manual, the manual is good, but it's just a little bit confusing because it's divided in different parts and they're not in order.
  如果你去看手册，手册是不错，但它有点令人困惑，因为它被分成了不同的部分，而且它们不是按顺序排列的。

[01:11] So I guess in my opinion, the best way to learn this one is to learn how the notes work, then to learn how the chords work, then how to control all the different tracks, and then how to record and play clips.
  所以我认为，学习这个的最佳方式是先学习音符是如何工作的，然后学习和弦是如何工作的，接着是如何控制所有不同的轨道，最后是如何录制和播放片段。

[01:24] And then of course, then we will talk about the custom modes in a different video.
  当然，之后我们会在另一个视频中讨论自定义模式。

[01:29] I will show you how the sequencer and the projects [work].
  我将向你展示音序器和项目是如何工作的。

[01:30] Okay, so if you are on a project, in this case I'm using Ableton, if you go to the notes mode, this is how you can of course play whatever track you have selected.
  好的，如果你在一个项目中，在这个例子中我使用的是 Ableton，如果你进入音符模式，这就是你如何播放你所选轨道的方式。

[01:42] At the bottom you have the buttons to select the tracks.
  在底部你有选择轨道的按钮。

[01:44] If you play it, you're going to be getting the drum rack if you're using one.
  如果你播放它，如果你正在使用鼓组，你就会得到鼓组。

[01:48] If you are using something else that it's not a drum rack, you will get a different layout.
  如果你使用的不是鼓组，你会得到不同的布局。

[01:54] Now in order to play, you need to record arm the track.
  现在为了演奏，你需要对轨道进行录音预备。

[01:57] Right here at the bottom you have the buttons to select the different tracks, and you have eight.
  就在底部，你有选择不同轨道的按钮，总共有八个。

[02:00] So if I select...
  所以如果我选择...

[02:02] This one, I'm standing on the first track, which is the drum track.
  我现在停留在第一条轨道上，也就是鼓轨道。

[02:06] But if I go to the next one, I get a different layout.
  但如果我转到下一条轨道，布局就会不同。

[02:08] This is an instrument; this is the third track, the fourth, and so on and so on and so on.
  这是一个乐器轨道；这是第三条轨道、第四条，以此类推。

[02:12] But the fact that you go to a track and you select the track, it doesn't mean that you are, uh, you have the record arm on that track.
  但是，你切换并选中某条轨道，并不意味着你已经开启了该轨道的录音准备状态。

[02:22] So if you go here, you can record arm whatever track, and whatever it is that you play right here is what, you know, you will be playing.
  所以如果你到这里，你可以为任意轨道开启录音准备，而你在这里演奏的内容，就是你最终录制的内容。

[02:29] In this case, I'm gonna stay on the first one because I have the drum track right here, and this is the drum layout that you get.
  在这种情况下，我会停留在第一条轨道上，因为这里有鼓轨道，这就是你所看到的鼓布局。

[02:35] Now, right here, if you play the empty clips, you can see right there on the screen, on the DAW, that I am actually playing some slots of the drum rack.
  现在，如果你播放这些空白片段，你可以在屏幕上的数字音频工作站（DAW）中看到，我实际上正在演奏鼓架中的某些插槽。

[02:48] If I play right here, I can see them as well.
  如果我在这里演奏，我也能看到它们。

[02:50] And right here with the arrows, you can just go up or you can go down on whatever you have on your drum rack.
  在这里通过箭头，你可以向上或向下切换鼓架上的内容。

[02:56] Now, what happens if you work with instruments, because this layout is just pretty simple, right?
  那么，如果你使用乐器会怎样呢？因为这个布局非常简单，对吧？

[03:02] It's just a 16-pad type of drum.
  它只是一种 16 打击垫式的鼓布局。

[03:05] Layout, so if I record arm and I go to the next track and then I go to the next one, when I play it, I get a different layout.
  布局，所以如果我开启录音准备，然后转到下一条轨道，接着转到再下一条，当我播放时，我会得到一个不同的布局。

[03:13] This is the nodes layout, so right now the camera is a little bit too bright.
  这是节点布局，所以现在摄像头有点太亮了。

[03:17] Uh, if I go to settings, it gives me the lead configuration.
  呃，如果我进入设置，它会给我显示主配置。

[03:19] It's all the way at the bottom, so on the screen right now it's super bright, but in real life this is actually really nice, but it can be a lot brighter.
  它在最底部，所以现在屏幕上看起来非常亮，但在现实中这其实非常好，不过它还可以更亮一些。

[03:30] I'm going to show you all the options that you get on the settings in a couple minutes.
  几分钟后，我将向你们展示设置中所有的选项。

[03:34] So when you are on an instrument track, you will be getting by default this layout, which makes sense.
  所以当你处于乐器轨道时，默认会得到这个布局，这是合乎逻辑的。

[03:40] You just play one note, you will play one note and then the next one, the next one, and the next one, and so on and on and on.
  你只需弹奏一个音符，你会弹奏一个音符，然后是下一个，再下一个，再下一个，以此类推。

[03:48] Uh, the challenging part, the most challenging part is how to configure all this.
  呃，具有挑战性的部分，最具有挑战性的部分是如何配置所有这些。

[03:53] So you need to go to shift, and once you hold it, you need to go to note.
  所以你需要按下 Shift 键，按住它之后，你需要进入 Note 选项。

[03:57] And right here it will give you the configuration of what scale you want to use, what's the root, and the layout.
  就在这里，它会让你配置想要使用的音阶、根音以及布局。

[04:02] You have it, you know, right here at the top.
  你可以在这里，就在顶部找到它。

[04:04] So first I'm going to show you how this works at the top.
  所以首先，我将向你们展示它在顶部是如何运作的。

[04:07] You need to have the first one selected.
  你需要选中第一个。

[04:09] And this one needs to be green.
  而且这个需要是绿色的。

[04:11] I'm going to tell you how they work in a minute.
  我一会儿会告诉你它们是如何工作的。

[04:13] Now this rows, the ones that you have right here, these ones are the scales.
  现在这一行，你在这里看到的这些，就是音阶。

[04:18] You have the minor, the just minor, the major, Dorian, then the blues, the pentatonic, and you have a lot of different scales.
  你有小调、纯小调、大调、多利亚调式，还有蓝调、五声音阶，你有很多不同的音阶。

[04:24] I'm going to put them right now on the screen so you can take note or maybe take a screenshot, but you also have it on the manual.
  我现在要把它们放在屏幕上，这样你可以做笔记或者截个图，但手册里也有这些内容。

[04:32] Whatever scales you select right here, notice the layout of this is just changing.
  无论你在这里选择什么音阶，注意它的布局正在发生变化。

[04:37] And it's because, of course, you're changing the scale and you use different notes.
  这是因为，当然，你改变了音阶，并且使用了不同的音符。

[04:42] So in this case, I'm going to stay on the minor.
  所以在这种情况下，我将保持在小调上。

[04:44] So when you select the scale you want to know, you know, the root, you want to set up the root.
  所以当你选择了你想了解的音阶时，你知道，根音，你需要设置根音。

[04:51] So the purple one is going to be the root.
  所以紫色的是根音。

[04:53] The ones that are lighted, like the blue, are going to be the notes that are part of the actual scale, right?
  那些亮起的，比如蓝色的，就是属于实际音阶的音符，对吧？

[05:02] And the ones that are grayed out are not part of the scale.
  而那些灰色的则不属于该音阶。

[05:04] If I go to a major, and see, major is going to be all the white keys.
  如果我切换到大调，你看，大调将是所有的白键。

[05:09] The black keys are going to be off.
  黑键将会被关闭。

[05:11] I'm going to go back to the minor.
  我要回到小调。

[05:13] I'm going to be using C as a root so when I go back and I go to this layout, it's going to be C and all the different notes we get within that scale.
  我将使用 C 作为根音，所以当我回到这个布局时，它将是 C 以及我们在该音阶内得到的所有不同音符。

[05:25] If I want to use something different, well I go back right here.
  如果我想用点不一样的，我就回到这里。

[05:27] Maybe I still want to use minor, but then I'm going to be using F minor.
  也许我仍然想用小调，但这次我会使用 F 小调。

[05:31] And I go back and now it's going to be F minor, the F minor scale.
  当我回到这里，现在它就是 F 小调，即 F 小调音阶。

[05:37] If I go back, this one is going to be the pentatonic.
  如果我回到这里，这个将会是五声音阶。

[05:40] So when you go to pentatonic, you have less notes, right?
  所以当你选择五声音阶时，音符会变少，对吧？

[05:45] We have only five.
  我们只有五个音。

[05:47] So when I go back to note, you can see that you have a different layout.
  所以当我回到音符设置时，你可以看到布局变了。

[05:51] It's only five, and then you will continue to the next row.
  只有五个音，然后你会继续到下一行。

[05:56] And again, at the end of the day, this is completely up to you, depending on which scale you want to use and what's the root that you want to use.
  再说一次，归根结底，这完全取决于你，取决于你想用哪个音阶以及你想用什么根音。

[06:03] And again, this is just pretty simple to understand.
  再次说明，这很容易理解。

[06:05] The most confusing part is going to be the options that you have.
  最令人困惑的部分将会是你所拥有的这些选项。

[06:10] Get right there at the top right here.
  就在这里，右上角。

[06:12] I'm going to stay on C and I'm going to stay on minor, right?
  我打算保持在 C 调，并且保持在小调，对吧？

[06:16] Green means that you are in scale mode.
  绿色意味着你处于音阶模式。

[06:19] It means that if I go to note, of course we are C, and then minor.
  这意味着如果我进入音符设置，当然我们是在 C 调，然后是小调。

[06:24] When I go back to notes, we see this scale, right?
  当我回到音符界面时，我们看到了这个音阶，对吧？

[06:28] It's a root and all the different notes we know.
  这是一个根音，以及我们所知道的所有不同音符。

[06:30] This, if I do shift and go back and I press it, now it turns red.
  这个，如果我按住 shift 并返回，然后按下它，现在它变成了红色。

[06:35] This means chromatic mode.
  这意味着半音阶模式。

[06:38] The difference is the layout is going to change.
  区别在于布局会发生变化。

[06:40] And this means that now the notes that are not part of whatever scale that you selected are going to be available to play.
  这意味着现在那些不属于你所选音阶的音符也可以演奏了。

[06:48] So you still, you know, you highlight the ones that you have on your scale.
  所以你仍然，你知道，你会高亮显示你音阶中包含的那些音符。

[06:51] But I can play C and I can play this one that it's not part of the scale I selected.
  但我可以演奏 C，也可以演奏这个不属于我所选音阶的音符。

[06:56] That's why it's called chromatic mode.
  这就是为什么它被称为半音阶模式。

[06:59] You can play them all, but you know the ones that are on the scale are still highlighted if you wanted to.
  你可以演奏所有音符，但如果你需要的话，音阶内的音符仍然会被高亮显示。

[07:04] But again, all of this is just up to you if you don't want to see the notes that are out.
  但再说一次，如果你不想看到音阶外的音符，这一切都取决于你。

[07:12] Of the scale, you just go to the green mode.
  关于音阶，你只需要进入绿色模式。

[07:14] And if you want the notes that are outside of the scale that you selected, you go to the red mode.
  如果你想要所选音阶之外的音符，就进入红色模式。

[07:20] I'm going to stay on the green mode for now, and I want to show you this, the options that you have right here.
  我现在先保持在绿色模式，我想向你展示这里的这些选项。

[07:26] And these are just the most confusing options; they're just very, very simple.
  这些选项看起来最令人困惑，但其实非常非常简单。

[07:31] This is called the overlaps.
  这被称为重叠。

[07:33] Now the first one, it's called sequential, and it's what we get by default.
  现在第一个选项叫作顺序，这是我们默认得到的设置。

[07:37] This is going to be sequential; it's going to be your note and then, you know, the next tone, the next one, and so on and so on.
  这就是顺序模式；它会先播放你的音符，然后是下一个音调，再下一个，以此类推。

[07:43] And so on and so on, all right, so that's what it means, that's sequential.
  以此类推，好了，这就是它的意思，这就是顺序模式。

[07:48] I'm going to do shift and just go back.
  我要按住 shift 键然后返回。

[07:50] The second option is going to be two fingers.
  第二个选项是双指模式。

[07:52] I'm going to go there and go back, and as you can see, the layout changes completely.
  我要进入那里再退出来，正如你所见，布局完全改变了。

[07:57] So why is it called two fingers?
  那么为什么它叫双指模式呢？

[07:59] Because again, if I go back, this is two fingers, three fingers, four, and then five.
  因为再说一次，如果我退回去，这里有双指、三指、四指，然后是五指。

[08:04] Why are we talking about fingers?
  我们为什么要谈论手指呢？

[08:07] Well, it depends how you play it.
  嗯，这取决于你如何演奏它。

[08:13] Go to the sequential and you want to play a chord.
  转到序列，如果你想弹奏一个和弦。

[08:15] Well, you're going to need to, you know, stretch your fingers a lot in order to just play whatever.
  嗯，你需要，你知道，大幅度伸展你的手指，才能弹奏任何东西。

[08:22] In this case, if I go to two fingers, it means that you have your root here.
  在这种情况下，如果我使用两根手指，这意味着你的根音在这里。

[08:25] Maybe it's just way too low.
  也许它太低了。

[08:27] I'm going to go up in pitch, and this is how you can go up in pitch and how you can go down in pitch.
  我要提高音高，这就是你可以提高音高和降低音高的方法。

[08:34] Going to go up, I'm going to play one note.
  要提高音高，我会弹奏一个音符。

[08:36] This is one finger, two fingers.
  这是一根手指，两根手指。

[08:39] And now if I play the third finger, it will not play it; it will go up to the next row.
  现在如果我用第三根手指弹奏，它不会发出声音；它会跳到下一行。

[08:43] So I'm going to play it, and that is that; it's green right there.
  所以我来弹奏它，就是这样；那里显示为绿色。

[08:48] So yeah, it means that one finger, two fingers, and the next finger, it goes up at the top.
  所以是的，这意味着一根手指、两根手指，下一根手指，它会跳到最上面。

[08:53] So I could play a whole scale doing just using just two fingers: 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2.
  所以我可以用两根手指弹奏整个音阶：1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2。

[09:00] And so on and so on and so on.
  以此类推，以此类推，以此类推。

[09:02] This is why it's called two fingers.
  这就是为什么它被称为“两根手指”。

[09:04] Now if I go back, I go to three, three, three fingers.
  现在如果我回去，我使用三、三、三根手指。

[09:06] And if you think about this, this is just the same deal.
  如果你思考一下，这其实是一回事。

[09:08] Well, it's just 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2.
  嗯，就是 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2。

[09:14] 3 and so on and so on.
  3，以此类推。

[09:17] If I go to four now, it's going to be four and it's a you know a little bit hard to play because I'm not used to use it like this.
  如果我现在选4，它就会变成4，而且你知道，因为我不习惯这样使用它，所以有点难弹奏。

[09:21] [Music].
  [音乐]。

[09:26] But this is how it works, right?
  但它是这样运作的，对吧？

[09:28] 1, 2, 3, 4, it goes to the next row right here.
  1、2、3、4，它会跳到这里的下一行。

[09:32] And if we do five, it's just you know the same idea but with five: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5.
  如果我们选5，道理是一样的，只是变成了5：1、2、3、4、5。

[09:39] And this one is going to go to the next row.
  而这个会跳到下一行。

[09:41] Now at the end of the day, it's completely up to you again how you want to use it.
  归根结底，这完全取决于你想怎么使用它。

[09:47] If you want to use the two fingers, three fingers, or maybe you can even go into chromatic and select one of the other combinations.
  如果你想用两根手指、三根手指，或者你甚至可以进入半音阶模式并选择其他组合之一。

[09:58] All right, so the last part of the configuration for this is going to be the MIDI, which is the options that you have right here.
  好了，这个配置的最后一部分将是MIDI，也就是你在这里看到的选项。

[10:05] Right now it's outputting the MIDI notes on the channel number one.
  现在它正在通道1上输出MIDI音符。

[10:11] So you have the 16 channels right here; this is why the first one is the one that is selected.
  所以你这里有16个通道；这就是为什么选中了第一个通道。

[10:16] If I go to the door and play something, you can see the channel one is the one receiving note information.
  如果我转到宿主软件（DAW）并演奏一些东西，你可以看到通道一正在接收音符信息。

[10:19] But if you want to change it, of course you can.
  但如果你想更改它，当然可以。

[10:22] I'm going to go to the 16 just to go some place else.
  我打算转到16通道，去别的地方看看。

[10:27] And now I play it, now the 16 is getting the note data.
  现在我演奏它，16通道正在接收音符数据。

[10:32] Okay, so now that we know how the note mode works, we need to talk about the chord mode.
  好的，既然我们知道了音符模式是如何工作的，我们需要谈谈和弦模式。

[10:39] And I know again the layout looks a little bit challenging, but it's just pretty simple.
  我知道布局看起来有点复杂，但它其实非常简单。

[10:45] So I'm using a scaler right now just to see, you know, all the keys that you get when you play a chord.
  所以我现在正在使用一个音阶插件，只是为了看看当你演奏和弦时会得到的所有按键。

[10:52] So first you have this row, the one that's orange right here, so these are triads.
  首先你有这一行，就是这里橙色的这一行，这些是三和弦。

[10:56] So if I play something, you can see right there on the scaler I'm playing triads.
  所以如果我演奏一些东西，你可以在音阶插件上看到我正在演奏三和弦。

[11:01] Now maybe you're wondering or asking yourself which triads.
  现在你可能在想或问自己是哪些三和弦。

[11:05] Well, again, it depends on the configuration that you have on your notes or your chord.
  嗯，再说一次，这取决于你在音符或和弦上所做的配置。

[11:10] And notice that it's the same configuration for both.
  请注意，两者的配置是相同的。

[11:12] So if you're using a C right here and minor.
  所以如果你在这里使用C和弦且是小调。

[11:17] Well, it's going to play whatever you have in the chords, whatever Triads you can get under C minor.
  嗯，它会演奏你和弦里的任何内容，或者任何你在 C 小调下能得到的和弦。

[11:22] Then again, just like before, just like the notes mode with the arrows at the top, you can go up in octaves or just go down in octaves.
  然后，就像之前一样，就像顶部带有箭头的音符模式一样，你可以升高八度或降低八度。

[11:34] And I guess just like any other MIDI controller, by tapping both at the same time, you go back to the center.
  我想就像任何其他 MIDI 控制器一样，同时点击两者，你就会回到中心位置。

[11:41] And yeah, you go back to the center.
  是的，你会回到中心位置。

[11:45] But yeah, you just play Triads with this.
  但是，你只需用这个来演奏和弦。

[11:47] Then right here at the bottom, you see the purple one.
  然后在这里的底部，你看到了紫色的那个。

[11:49] Well, this is going to be the sustain.
  嗯，这将是延音功能。

[11:51] If I press it, it's going to go on, and I release it, it's going to go off.
  如果我按下它，它就会开启；如果我松开它，它就会关闭。

[11:54] So if I play, if I press it and I just play, it's going to sustain it.
  所以如果我演奏，如果我按下它并进行演奏，它就会保持延音。

[11:59] And you can see right there on the scaler on the screen that as I add notes, it's going to stack the notes for us.
  你可以直接在屏幕上的音阶器上看到，当我添加音符时，它会为我们堆叠这些音符。

[12:03] Cool, right?
  很酷，对吧？

[12:08] And when I release it, they all die.
  当我松开它时，它们就都停止了。

[12:11] Now okay, so you have the triads and you have the sustain or the hold.
  好了，所以你有和弦，也有延音或保持功能。

[12:16] Then at the left, right here, you have the note.
  然后在左边，就在这里，你有音符。

[12:18] Area and how you read this section because I know it looks confusing.
  关于这个区域以及如何阅读这一部分，因为我知道它看起来很令人困惑。

[12:22] It's actually pretty simple.
  它实际上非常简单。

[12:24] Is that the first pad, the first of each row, is going to be, you know, a note on the scale.
  就是第一个打击垫，每一行的第一个，将会是一个音阶上的音符。

[12:28] I'm using a C minor, so it's going to be C minor.
  我使用的是C小调，所以它会是C小调。

[12:35] Now then you have the other ones.
  现在你有其他的那些。

[12:39] This is, you know, the confusing part.
  这就是那个令人困惑的部分。

[12:42] So if this one is the first, this one, the second one, is going to be a fifth.
  所以如果这是第一个，那么第二个将会是五度音。

[12:47] And again, I'm showing you the keyboard right now so you can see it on the screen.
  再说一次，我现在正在向你展示键盘，这样你就可以在屏幕上看到它。

[12:51] So this one is the fifth.
  所以这是五度音。

[12:54] First root in case and then fifth.
  第一个是根音，然后是五度音。

[12:57] Now you could assume that this one is going to be a third.
  现在你可能会认为这一个会是三度音。

[12:58] So it is a third, but it's going to be a third raised an octave.
  它确实是三度音，但它是升高了一个八度的三度音。

[13:05] If I go to the fourth one, the fourth one is going to be a seventh.
  如果我转到第四个，第四个将会是七度音。

[13:10] And now if I go to the fifth one and I'm holding everything, it's going to be, um, I'm going to go and play Stronger.
  现在如果我转到第五个，并且我按住所有东西，它将会是，嗯，我要去演奏《Stronger》。

[13:18] It's going to be a fifth, but again, it's going to be raised one octave.
  这将是一个五度音程，但同样地，它会被升高一个八度。

[13:24] So this is how it works, and for all the other paths, the paths is just the same one.
  这就是它的工作原理，对于所有其他路径，路径都是一样的。

[13:30] 5th, 3rd, 7th, fifth, and then again 1, 5, 3, 7, F.
  五度、三度、七度、五度，然后又是 1、5、3、7、F。

[13:37] And this is how the whole note area was, you know, it's laid out.
  这就是整个音符区域的布局方式。

[13:41] And when you play it, when you use it, you can, you know, play chords, the usual chords just like this by playing the first one.
  当你演奏它、使用它时，你可以像这样通过弹奏第一个音来演奏和弦，即通常的和弦。

[13:50] But you can do something like this, and it's super musical.
  但你可以做类似这样的事情，而且它非常有音乐感。

[13:54] It's always musical that everything I'm playing sounds great.
  它总是很有音乐感，我弹奏的一切听起来都很棒。

[14:03] I'm just randomly, just, you know, playing some pads.
  我只是随意地弹奏一些铺底音色。

[14:08] I'm not, you know, making a big effort right here.
  我在这里并没有费很大力气。

[14:11] All right, so this is the second part of the deal.
  好的，这是这部分的第二部分。

[14:14] You have your triads, you have your tones, and then on this.
  你有你的三和弦，你有你的音调，然后在这上面。

[14:19] Side of the screen notice is white.
  注意屏幕侧面是白色的。

[14:21] What you can do on this one is that when you store a chord you can just record it when you hold it and you can create whatever chord right here.
  在这个设备上，当你存储和弦时，你可以在按住它的同时进行录制，并且可以在这里创建任何和弦。

[14:29] And then when you play one single pad it is going to be playing your custom created chord.
  然后当你按下单个打击垫时，它就会播放你自定义创建的和弦。

[14:34] All right, so how can you create a chord?
  好的，那么你该如何创建一个和弦呢？

[14:37] Green here at the bottom, this one is going to be play, so you cannot create chords when this one is on green.
  底部这里的绿色按钮是播放模式，所以当它处于绿色状态时，你无法创建和弦。

[14:45] And the actual mode, I guess it's play mode, it's play, and this one is going to be the record on.
  实际模式我想应该是播放模式，它是播放，而这个则是录制开启。

[14:50] So red is going to be, you know, rec, and green is going to be play, because that's very simple.
  所以红色代表录制，绿色代表播放，因为这非常简单。

[14:56] So I'm going to be on red because I want to record a chord.
  所以我现在要切换到红色，因为我想录制一个和弦。

[15:01] Let's say that I want to add this triad, but I also want to add this note at the bottom.
  假设我想添加这个三和弦，但我也想在底部添加这个音符。

[15:07] So once I'm holding this and I'm again holding, you just tap that one and I'm going to release.
  所以一旦我按住这个，并且再次按住，你只需轻点那个，然后我就会松开。

[15:12] And now if I play, notice that we get it, we just recorded whatever is that we did to this.
  现在如果我按下播放，注意我们得到了它，我们刚刚录制了我们对它所做的一切。

[15:20] Pad, I'm going to do another one.
  打击垫，我打算再做一个。

[15:22] So I'm going to be holding this.
  所以我打算按住这个。

[15:24] I'm going to be hold it, notice it goes red.
  我打算按住它，注意它变红了。

[15:26] And I'm going to be tapping and this one goes red.
  然后我打算进行敲击，这个也变红了。

[15:29] I'm going to tap this, tap this, tap this.
  我打算敲击这个，敲击这个，敲击这个。

[15:31] And I made a mistake, I'm going to remove it.
  我犯了个错误，我打算把它移除。

[15:33] And there you go.
  你看，就这样。

[15:35] I just, you know, by holding this, I know that the whatever notes that I just pressed are going to be part of this chord when I release.
  我只是，你知道，通过按住这个，我知道我刚才按下的任何音符，在我松开时都会成为这个和弦的一部分。

[15:42] There we go, we are done.
  好了，我们完成了。

[15:44] If I want to play it, we get it.
  如果我想播放它，我们就能得到它。

[15:47] So right, so you have those two modes.
  所以没错，你有这两种模式。

[15:50] Remember, it's going to be by holding a pad, adding the notes, releasing, or just playing a chord or whatever.
  记住，这可以通过按住打击垫、添加音符、松开，或者只是弹奏和弦之类的操作来实现。

[15:58] And then just pressing the pad and everything will be recorded.
  然后只需按下打击垫，一切都会被录制下来。

[16:00] Now, how can you maybe remove notes or edit the chords?
  那么，你该如何移除音符或编辑和弦呢？

[16:05] Well, since you are on record, you can edit.
  嗯，既然你在录音模式，你就可以进行编辑。

[16:07] When you just press this, you can tap out whatever is that you have on red.
  当你按下这个时，你可以敲击出任何处于红色状态的内容。

[16:14] Maybe I just want to change and add something new.
  也许我只是想改变并添加一些新的东西。

[16:16] And there we go, it's going to be that one if I want to delete this.
  好了，如果我想删除这个，它就会是那个。

[16:21] Uh, this chord, I can just remove everything that is readed.
  呃，这个和弦，我可以把所有读到的内容都删掉。

[16:26] And when I remove, notice that this is not, you know, highlight light it anymore.
  当我删除时，请注意它不再高亮显示了。

[16:30] Another way to clear chords is going to be by doing clear and then holding the clear and just, you know, pressing the bank or the slot and it will just clear the chord.
  另一种清除和弦的方法是执行清除操作，然后按住清除键，只需按下库或插槽，它就会清除该和弦。

[16:40] I'm going to do it for this ones as well and there you go.
  我也要对这些执行同样的操作，好了。

[16:41] I, if I play something, I have absolutely nothing.
  如果我弹奏什么，我什么也听不到。

[16:46] If, um, I'm going to be adding one chord, let's say I going to be adding this and then a note at the bottom, I'm going to release it and then I get it.
  如果我要添加一个和弦，比如说我要添加这个，然后在底部加一个音符，我松开它，然后我就得到了。

[16:54] Now what is the point of having the wreck on or the green, right?
  那么，开启录制模式或绿色模式的意义何在呢？

[16:57] What's the point of green R?
  绿色录制模式有什么意义？

[16:59] Because if I'm on wreck, I can, I can play this.
  因为如果我处于录制模式，我可以弹奏这个。

[17:02] The thing is that if I, if I want to play this chord, I know I can, I'm playing it.
  问题是，如果我想弹奏这个和弦，我知道我可以，我正在弹奏它。

[17:06] If I press something else, it's going to add it to the actual chord and maybe I don't want to add it.
  如果我按下其他键，它会将其添加到实际的和弦中，而我可能并不想添加它。

[17:12] I just want to play it live.
  我只是想现场弹奏它。

[17:14] This is why you need to be on the green mode.
  这就是为什么你需要处于绿色模式。

[17:16] This is why it's called play mode.
  这就是为什么它被称为演奏模式。

[17:17] Uh, if I play a chord, whatever I do, right?
  呃，如果我弹奏一个和弦，无论我做什么，对吧？

[17:22] Here it doesn't matter, it will not modify the chord in memory.
  在这里没关系，它不会修改内存中的和弦。

[17:26] If I release it, you know, it's the same chord.
  如果我松开它，你知道，它还是同一个和弦。

[17:30] Okay, so we already know I'm going to go back to notes.
  好的，我们已经知道我要回到音符了。

[17:32] We already know that when we press these ones, these are the track select.
  我们已经知道，当我们按下这些按钮时，它们是音轨选择键。

[17:36] So if I press the track, it's going to load, or at least, you know, stand on that track.
  所以如果我按下音轨，它就会加载，或者至少，你知道，停留在那个音轨上。

[17:44] You can see up to eight; you have four here and four here.
  你最多可以看到八个；这里有四个，这里也有四个。

[17:50] You can only see eight tracks at one time.
  你一次只能看到八个音轨。

[17:54] But the thing is that, of course, what happens if you have a lot more?
  但问题是，当然，如果你有更多音轨会怎样？

[17:58] If I go to the eight, as you can see on the DAW, I'm showing the DAW right now, I can only go to the track number eight.
  如果我转到第八个，正如你在数字音频工作站（DAW）上看到的那样，我现在正在展示DAW，我只能转到第八号音轨。

[18:03] But maybe I just want to go to the nine.
  但也许我只是想转到第九个。

[18:06] So with the controls right here at the top, especially if you're in session, you can move by ones.
  所以通过顶部的这些控件，特别是如果你在会话模式下，你可以逐个移动。

[18:10] And we're going to talk about the session mode and how we can create clips and everything else.
  我们将讨论会话模式以及我们如何创建片段和其他所有内容。

[18:17] But with the buttons right here, you can move horizontally, and if you want...
  但通过这里的按钮，你可以水平移动，如果你想的话……

[18:22] To navigate, uh, to the bottom, you know, vertically, you can do it with this once.
  要导航到最下方，你知道，垂直方向，你可以用这个操作一次。

[18:27] But we're going to talk about this in a minute, okay?
  但我们稍后会讨论这个问题，好吗？

[18:28] So I'm going to be going maybe to the first track.
  所以我可能会转到第一条音轨。

[18:30] If I go here to the record arm, it's like a secondary screen.
  如果我点击这里的录音预备（record arm），它就像一个辅助屏幕。

[18:35] This ones are the same eight tracks that we have right there on the screen, but on this ones are going to be...
  这些就是我们在屏幕上看到的同样的八条音轨，但在这些音轨上...

[18:42] I'm going to be turning on the record arm track, and this is going to be really useful when we record clips.
  我将开启录音预备音轨，这在我们录制片段时非常有用。

[18:49] So when I get out of here, it's going to go back to the main mode, which is, you know, the track select.
  所以当我退出这里时，它会回到主模式，也就是音轨选择模式。

[18:52] All right, so I'm going to stay on that track.
  好的，我会停留在那个音轨上。

[18:54] If I go to mute, everything goes yellow; it means that we are mute.
  如果我进入静音模式，所有东西都会变黄，这意味着我们处于静音状态。

[18:58] So I can mute the first track, or I can, you know, mute multiple tracks at once.
  所以我可以静音第一条音轨，或者我可以一次静音多个音轨。

[19:04] All right, I guess, you know, it's pretty simple.
  好吧，我想这很简单。

[19:08] I'm going to go to solo, and on this one you can do the same thing.
  我要进入独奏（solo）模式，在这个模式下你也可以做同样的事情。

[19:11] I'm going to be soloing the first one, or the second, the third one, and so on and so on and so on.
  我会独奏第一条，或者第二条、第三条，以此类推。

[19:17] If I want to, again, unsolo, you just need to tap the same track and it will unsolo.
  如果我想再次取消独奏，你只需要点击同一个音轨，它就会取消独奏。

[19:20] And just tap it to get out.
  然后点击它退出。

[19:22] Coming up next is...
  接下来是...

[19:24] Going to be the volume, and again if I go to volume right here, you can of course go through the different tracks.
  接下来是音量，再说一次，如果我在这里进入音量设置，你当然可以浏览不同的轨道。

[19:32] And it will show you, uh, you know, it's just going to select the track.
  它会向你展示，呃，你知道，它只是会选中该轨道。

[19:36] But still, when we are in volume, it doesn't matter because right here on the different paths, it will show you the volume for all the different tracks: the track number one, the two, the three, the four, and so on and so on and so on.
  但即便如此，当我们处于音量设置时，这并不重要，因为在这里的各个路径上，它会显示所有不同轨道的音量：轨道一、二、三、四，以此类推。

[19:50] So if I wanted to go to the track number one and go down in volume, we go down in volume on the track number one.
  所以如果我想进入轨道一并降低音量，我们就可以降低轨道一的音量。

[19:54] By default, this has an animation; it's not super fast.
  默认情况下，这有一个动画效果；它不是特别快。

[19:59] Maybe if I go up, it's going to take a little while just to go up in volume and go down in volume.
  也许如果我调高音量，音量的升高和降低会需要一点时间。

[20:03] It depends on how hard you press it.
  这取决于你按压的力度。

[20:06] If I go really soft press it soft, it's like the velocity is fading out the volume or fading in, depends on how you want to call it.
  如果我轻轻按压，就像力度在淡出或淡入音量，取决于你想怎么称呼它。

[20:16] But yeah, it depends on the velocity, and again, all of this just controls the different volume of the tracks and so on and so on and so.
  但确实，这取决于力度，再说一次，所有这些只是控制轨道的不同音量，以此类推。

[20:24] on we have a way of changing this this

[20:27] fading uh type of this animation type of

[20:30] behavior when we go uh to the setup I'm

[20:33] going to show you uh how to do that in a

[20:35] minute now coming up next is going to be

[20:37] the panning and the panning is a little

[20:38] bit different from the volume you know

[20:40] the volume we have vertical vertical

[20:43] lines to for each of the tracks but

[20:45] right here on the Penning uh all the

[20:47] tracks are going to be you know

[20:49] horizontal this is going to be the

[20:51] Penning for the first track and as you

[20:53] can see you know we are just changing

[20:56] the first track panning and if I go back

[20:58] again to the beginning it will always be

[21:01] at center right here and the same with

[21:03] this one if I go to the left and this

[21:06] one to the right you know or left and

[21:08] right uh going to be able to do it so

[21:10] this is how you do it you know and

[21:12] remember again if you're working with a

[21:14] lot of different tracks with the arrows

[21:16] you can just you know move to the next

[21:19] you know tracks or Clips but we're going

[21:22] to talk about this in a minute in this

[21:24] case I just want to go uh to Center

[21:27] everything at Center so going to go

[21:28] there and I don't like the animation I'm

[21:30] going to again show you how to disable

[21:32] this in a minute if I go to the sense

[21:35] this one works just like the volume is

[21:37] the you know the same interface let's

[21:38] say it's not like the Penning you know

[21:40] which is you know horizontally it's

[21:42] vertically uh so on this one it's the

[21:45] same all the tracks I can send maybe if

[21:48] I do it fast I can send to the track a

[21:51] of the first track if I want to go to

[21:53] the second track and send some more to

[21:56] the a I'm going to be able to do it and

[21:59] if I go to the third track I'm going to

[22:01] be able to send something there in this

[22:04] case I'm going to just disable all this

[22:07] now notice that I can only send to the

[22:09] track uh number a to the bus a what if I

[22:12] wanted to send to the bus number b or

[22:15] maybe just a different bus so right here

[22:17] you have the controls since you have a

[22:19] limited amount of buses at least on uh

[22:23] ailon well this is going to be the track

[22:25] a if I tap this one it's going to be the

[22:27] track B so now I'm going to be able to

[22:29] send something to the track B and that's

[22:33] it you know that's how you do it if uh

[22:36] you want to do nothing you just go all

[22:38] the way down coming up next is going to

[22:40] be the device and this is going to be

[22:43] about about the macros if I maybe I'm

[22:46] going to do it with you know the

[22:47] controls that's why we have them uh I'm

[22:49] going to select the track where we have

[22:51] macros I guess on this track I do have

[22:53] some macros you see them right there on

[22:55] the screen and again this one works just

[22:57] like the sense and just like the the

[22:58] volume every single row is going to be a

[23:01] macro so if I go here and go up it's

[23:04] going to change what we can control

[23:07] whatever macro that we have and how this

[23:09] works again remember that the macros can

[23:11] only give you a certain amount of of

[23:15] knobs so right now the first row is

[23:18] going to be the first eight uh if we

[23:20] check take a look at the do is going to

[23:22] be the first eight if I go to the second

[23:25] row it's completely empty so right here

[23:27] with the buttons you this is how you

[23:29] navigate the different rows so first row

[23:32] and then second row or second page

[23:34] depends on you know depending on what

[23:35] you're doing so if I go here and start

[23:38] changing all the values here we can see

[23:41] the macros on the actual device again if

[23:45] you wants to go down you just press hard

[23:48] and it's going to just go down on all of

[23:50] them all right so you know again that's

[23:53] how you do it if I go back I'm going to

[23:56] go to the next mode which is going to be

[23:59] the stop clip now this one is about

[24:02] stopping the playback of the tracks if I

[24:05] go again to stop clip notice that this

[24:07] one is just like wreck if I go here it's

[24:09] just pretty much the same thing but this

[24:11] one what it will do it will stop the

[24:13] playback of a clip again we get to talk

[24:15] about this in a session uh when we talk

[24:17] about the session mode but if I have a

[24:18] clip right here that it's just playing

[24:20] back and it's just you know playing

[24:23] whenever I go there I just trigger the

[24:25] stop I just stop the clip and this works

[24:27] for all all the you know the different

[24:29] the different tracks all right so you do

[24:32] have secondary functions I'm going to be

[24:33] pressing shift uh maybe you don't see it

[24:36] because it's off camera but as soon as I

[24:37] do it you have uh some extra ones the

[24:40] first one if you tap it it's going to uh

[24:42] do an undo the mute is going to do a

[24:45] redo and then of course you have the

[24:47] other options which is just going to be

[24:49] enabling the metronome right so it's on

[24:52] or it's off and this one what it does is

[24:55] going to be you know the tap Tempo so if

[24:57] I just tap it is going to alter the

[25:00] tempo and you can see it right there on

[25:01] the screen all right so that's pretty

[25:03] much it about controlling tracks right

[25:06] so if you go to a track you just go with

[25:08] the buttons right here if you want to

[25:10] arm it you go there if you wants to mute

[25:12] it if you wants to solo it if you wants

[25:14] to control the volume if you want to

[25:16] control the panning remember you can go

[25:19] to different tracks on some of the modes

[25:21] if you want do some sentence if you want

[25:24] to control the macros and then if you

[25:26] want to stop the clips if you're planks

[25:28] and clips and again when you do shift

[25:31] you can undo and redo and you can

[25:33] control the metronome and just set the

[25:36] tempo with this one just you know pretty

[25:38] pretty simple and easy to use once you

[25:41] you know once you remember all of this

[25:42] once you understand it now you have one

[25:45] more thing called momentary view

[25:48] switching so let's say I'm going to be

[25:50] right here on record arm and I want to

[25:52] you know record some clips we going to

[25:54] do something like this in a minute so

[25:56] I'm going to be just you know constantly

[25:57] going to different tracks just to enable

[26:00] some of the clips maybe I want to change

[26:03] the volume so I it means that I need to

[26:06] get out of this mode go to this mode go

[26:09] to the volumes and then go back to this

[26:11] mode but maybe I'm just you know this

[26:13] kind of a kills the the Vive so by

[26:16] holding and just holding you never

[26:18] release it you can make your changes

[26:20] right here and when you release this one

[26:23] is going to go back to whatever mode you

[26:24] had before holding this value and this

[26:27] works for pretty much everything if I

[26:29] want to to do to change the sense I

[26:31] could do something like this and then I

[26:33] release it and goes back to record arm I

[26:35] could do volume just you know change the

[26:37] volume and then you know release it and

[26:39] goes back to whatever mode I had before

[26:42] and this is really useful because when

[26:44] you are playing like you know we're

[26:46] going to talk about this in a minute

[26:47] when you're playing and doing something

[26:48] you can uh you know quickly go to

[26:51] different modes without without getting

[26:53] out of whatever you are okay so in

[26:56] session we can play clips and and of

[26:58] course we can record new clips let's

[27:00] first uh learn how to play them on the

[27:03] screen you can see I have nine different

[27:05] tracks and I have 10 different clips for

[27:08] each of the tracks this is going to be

[27:10] important in a minute so whenever you

[27:13] have something right here on your screen

[27:15] it will reflect on your pads so I'm

[27:18] going to I'm going to add manually

[27:19] whatever clip and notice that right here

[27:21] is going to show it if I add more it's

[27:24] going to show the same colors or almost

[27:26] the same colors I have have on the

[27:29] different

[27:30] tracks I'm going to be adding one there

[27:33] now if I add more just like this now

[27:36] whatever is that you have and I'm doing

[27:38] this randomly it doesn't matter it's

[27:40] just so you can see that whenever you

[27:42] have Clips it's going to show the clips

[27:45] on the screen some of the colors it's

[27:48] just not doing it for example right here

[27:50] you know it should be doing kind of a

[27:53] orange or maybe a brownish type of color

[27:56] it's just not getting it but that's fine

[27:59] so once you of course you have some

[28:01] clips you want to start playing those

[28:04] clips if you want to play a clip let's

[28:06] say I want to play the first one just

[28:08] you just tap it and it's going to start

[28:10] you know playing that one if I want to

[28:12] play this one it's going to go and do it

[28:14] and so on and on and on all the ones

[28:17] that are just blinking are the ones that

[28:19] are just playing if you want to play a

[28:22] clip that belongs to the same track of

[28:24] course is going to cue in you know the

[28:27] next clip this when it's going to stop

[28:29] it's going to play the next one notice

[28:31] it blinks before it cues to the next

[28:34] clip if I play this and then I play that

[28:36] it's going to Blink so it depends of

[28:38] course on your clip and how long that

[28:40] clip is uh this is how this is how it

[28:43] works right you just press whatever you

[28:45] want and it will just play that order

[28:47] off the clips remember that by going to

[28:49] stop clip right here I can stop all the

[28:52] clips that are just playing on the

[28:54] different uh tracks and I can you know

[28:56] stop pretty much the whole damn thing I

[28:59] couldn't find a way to St all the clips

[29:02] at once on this session without going to

[29:05] each of the tracks I couldn't find it

[29:07] and it seems that some people on the web

[29:10] are just you know complaining about the

[29:11] same thing but you do have a custom mode

[29:13] so you can create a custom uh maybe

[29:16] button to trigger some of the actions

[29:18] that you don't have available by default

[29:21] now if I just you know start all maybe

[29:24] all the first Clips uh what you can do

[29:26] let's say I want to maybe select a clip

[29:29] without launching it you can you need to

[29:32] go to shift hold the shift and when you

[29:35] tap on that clip you can see that I'm

[29:37] selecting that clip but I'm not you know

[29:40] playing it I'm not launching that clip

[29:43] now at the right side you have your

[29:45] scenes so if you play this one of course

[29:48] you will play the first scene if I play

[29:50] this is going to play the second scene

[29:53] and the third one and the fourth one I

[29:55] guess all of this just you know pretty

[29:57] obvious all right so when you are

[29:58] playing a thing that you need to know is

[30:01] how the play Works uh if you press play

[30:03] it will stop the playb but if you press

[30:06] uh press play again everything's just

[30:08] kind of a start from starts from the

[30:10] beginning all right so you stop you play

[30:12] you play and starts from the beginning

[30:14] but if you hold the shift and you do

[30:16] play it will stop it but instead of

[30:19] stopping it's pausing so when I play it

[30:21] again it will resume from that play So

[30:24] this is when holding shift it's more

[30:26] like an a play and a pass that just you

[30:28] know stop and restart playback all right

[30:31] so remember that the uh the view by

[30:33] default is going to be 8 by 8 if you

[30:36] want to go to the uh tracks and the

[30:39] clips that you know are not right here

[30:41] you can in session you can use your

[30:44] arrows and just you know move one up or

[30:47] one down or you know one to the left and

[30:49] so on and so on now the problem is that

[30:52] sometimes sometimes not always maybe you

[30:55] have a session with I don't know 30

[30:57] different tracks

[30:58] and 50 different clips on each track

[31:01] right so you have something crazy like

[31:03] this so going by just you know by one

[31:06] it's just a little bit annoying just a

[31:07] little bit annoying so if you hold the

[31:10] button session and you hold it notice

[31:12] that we get something different so this

[31:15] what it does is going to jump by eight

[31:17] different tracks uh on the horizontal

[31:20] and then vertical is going to go by

[31:21] eight different clips so this is a much

[31:24] easier way if you have a super long

[31:27] session all right so this is how you can

[31:29] play the clips once you have them right

[31:31] here you just play them back if you want

[31:33] to stop it make sure you go to stop clip

[31:35] and you kill whatever is that it's

[31:37] playing back and if you wants to play a

[31:39] scene you just press the button and

[31:41] that's it and again if you wants to stop

[31:44] it you can't just do something like that

[31:46] and it's going to stop them all all

[31:48] right so everything we've learned so far

[31:50] like you know controlling the notes the

[31:52] chords and then the tracks and just

[31:55] playing the clips on the session view

[31:57] comes down to creating Clips on the go

[32:00] I'm starting with an empty session and

[32:03] you need to make sure I'm going to

[32:04] enable the metronome right here you have

[32:06] it and on the options I have two bars as

[32:09] a count in and I only have the metronome

[32:12] when recording and I guess my Tempo is

[32:14] going to be 120 119 something like that

[32:17] make sure that you're not playing back

[32:19] that everything's just stopped okay so

[32:21] what I want to do I want to go to my

[32:23] drum my drums and I want to record some

[32:26] drums now remember that if you're in

[32:28] session you need to record or arm the

[32:31] track that you want to record and now

[32:33] the only thing that we need to do is we

[32:35] need to tap the clip this will start the

[32:37] recording notice it will count in and

[32:44] then we record something now when we of

[32:47] course it will keep recording behind the

[32:49] scenes I can press this one and it will

[32:52] stop recording and it will go back to

[32:54] the clip now if I go to the doll and

[32:57] show you what we have on the clip notice

[32:59] that the clip is very long so it will

[33:02] not stop recording until you of course

[33:05] press uh the wreck or you go back to the

[33:08] session and you tap whatever is uh clip

[33:11] that you're recording now if you want to

[33:13] erase the clip I'm going to do clear and

[33:15] I'm going to do this and I'm going to

[33:17] erase it and I'm going to record it

[33:19] again is 2 3 4 1 two bars

[33:23] [Music]

[33:28] I go to session when I tap this it will

[33:30] stop and of course it will keep the

[33:32] playback okay cool whenever we tap a

[33:35] clip it will start recording we know

[33:36] that but we have a few problems the

[33:39] length of the clip right now we can see

[33:41] that it's a little bit off and the

[33:43] quantization you know it's not

[33:45] quantizing you know all the noes are

[33:47] just a little bit off now you have a

[33:49] couple of options right here if you

[33:51] recorded something and you want to

[33:54] quantize it the uh button right here is

[33:57] going to say quantize you can press and

[33:59] hold and once you do this you just tap

[34:02] whatever is that you want to quantize

[34:04] and it will you know quantize it for you

[34:07] so that's one way of doing it what if

[34:10] you want to record and you know quantize

[34:13] at the same time you can do so I'm going

[34:15] to hold the clear and I'm going to clear

[34:18] uh the clip and I'm going to start over

[34:20] to enable the quantization you need to

[34:23] go to shift and right here is going to

[34:25] say quantize again but it's red if you

[34:27] press it is going to be like on a green

[34:30] or something something like that this

[34:31] means that the record quantized now it's

[34:34] on so when you uh record something is

[34:37] going to quantise it for

[34:43] you and to stop it I'm going to press

[34:46] direct to stop and there we go now it's

[34:48] quantize I don't need to you know

[34:50] manually go and quantize it okay so next

[34:53] problem which you know again it's just

[34:55] not a problem it's just the way it works

[34:56] what I want to do I want to record a two

[34:59] bar Loop and I want for this to stop at

[35:02] two bars I don't want want it to keep

[35:05] going because it will require for me to

[35:08] press the rec to stop or just go into

[35:10] session and uh just tap the clip to stop

[35:13] recording and you do have a function to

[35:15] fix this I'm going to go to clear and

[35:17] I'm going to clear the whole uh you know

[35:19] the whole clip I'm going to erase it and

[35:21] right here at the bottom you have a

[35:22] button that says fixed length so when

[35:25] you press it it's going to turn blue

[35:27] this this means that you are turning on

[35:29] the fixed length the thing is that you

[35:31] need to configure how many bars you want

[35:35] uh to record and if you press and hold

[35:38] at the bottom it will you know show you

[35:40] it will turn blue this means it's going

[35:42] to be one bar two bars three four five 6

[35:46] 7 and eight so if you want to uh record

[35:49] a fixed bar a fixed the clip of eight

[35:52] bars you need to enable them all you

[35:54] cannot do more than eight which is you

[35:55] know I guess that's fine I'm going to go

[35:58] for two I'm going to release it and when

[36:00] I record this will stop at two bars so

[36:04] I'm going to go

[36:05] here one

[36:12] more and it will just you know there you

[36:15] go just do it for me I don't need to

[36:17] stomp it manually which is you know just

[36:20] great if I want to stop it remember you

[36:22] can press play and press again and it

[36:24] will start from the beginning or if you

[36:26] want do shift and then press play it

[36:28] will pause and then pressing again it

[36:31] will continue you know while holding the

[36:33] shift continue from where you play you

[36:36] you post whatever is that you're playing

[36:39] if I go back I press this and I I have

[36:42] that you know that clip playing what I

[36:44] want to do since I have a clip I want to

[36:47] record something at the top so it's

[36:50] going to be this button when you enable

[36:53] this notice that recording goes on so

[36:55] this is the overdub whatever you play

[36:58] right here is going to record it on top

[37:00] of the uh you know the playing clip if

[37:02] you disable this what you can do you can

[37:04] play at the top and audition whatever is

[37:06] that you you know you select let's say I

[37:09] want to record this one I'm going to

[37:10] turn it

[37:12] [Music]

[37:16] on there you go if he wants to turn it

[37:20] off and then maybe do something like

[37:22] that

[37:29] and you just you know keep adding more

[37:34] [Music]

[37:39] stuff there we go it's

[37:41] [Music]

[37:48] uh and it's that easy I mean that easy

[38:01] all right now of course I I've recorded

[38:05] a lot of different things and if you

[38:07] take a look at the clip uh you know we

[38:09] have a lot a lot of things what if what

[38:12] happens if I want to delete some of the

[38:14] parts we know that by going to session

[38:16] if I go to clear and just you know tap

[38:19] this one is going to you know delete the

[38:21] whole damn thing but I don't want this I

[38:24] want to delete Parts I'm going to play

[38:26] it back and I can see you know whatever

[38:29] he's playing because you know it's just

[38:30] flashing when it's playing so let's say

[38:32] I want to delete the notes I'm going to

[38:34] hold it clear and by tapping this one is

[38:36] going to Kaboom the whole you know the

[38:40] whole

[38:41] instrument let's see I'm going to delete

[38:43] that one what else do we have we have

[38:45] that one so I'm just delete that one we

[38:49] have this one is the Hat we have some

[38:51] claps I'm going to delete it and if I

[38:53] want to delete hats I delete the hats

[38:58] now always remember that you do have the

[39:01] shift hold the shift and you have the

[39:03] undo and the redo so if you do something

[39:05] that you don't want uh you can always go

[39:08] back now one more thing that you really

[39:10] need to know if I'm uh playing back on

[39:12] session if I just press the clear

[39:15] nothing really happens until you know of

[39:16] course I hold hold clear and I do some

[39:19] extra stuff if I'm standing right here

[39:22] on the note and I press clear is going

[39:25] to delete the clip so you need to make

[39:27] sure that when you do this you really

[39:30] want to delete the clip if I hold shift

[39:32] and it want to undo of course I can go

[39:34] back all right so let me show you a

[39:36] couple more things I'm going to be

[39:37] playing that four in the floor that we

[39:38] have and we know it's just you know two

[39:41] bars which is it's fine now what I want

[39:43] to do I want to extend it so on session

[39:46] mode not node mode because it's a little

[39:48] bit different in session mode I can hold

[39:51] the shift and right here you can see

[39:53] this that says duplicate or double if I

[39:56] hold it and just press it hold both and

[39:59] press both at once if I tap this clip is

[40:02] going to duplicate the length so if it

[40:04] was two bars now it's going to be four

[40:06] bars and if I do it again uh just shift

[40:10] and duplicate it's going to be now of

[40:12] course eight bars all right so yeah this

[40:14] is how you just extend uh the uh the

[40:17] clip I'm going to be going back uh just

[40:19] you know just what we have before just

[40:22] two and I'm going to you know extend all

[40:24] this okay so let me show you a couple

[40:26] more things uh without holding the shift

[40:28] by going to duplicate if I press and

[40:31] hold if I press this one tap this one is

[40:34] going to take whatever we have that clip

[40:36] duplicated and allocated on the next

[40:39] upcoming clip so I'm going to do it and

[40:41] now we have a new clip if I go there is

[40:44] you know the same um you know for in the

[40:46] floor and this is you know a way of just

[40:49] you know duplicating whatever we have so

[40:51] we can record different variations now

[40:54] you know we have a better way to do this

[40:56] I'm going to go to clear and I'm going

[40:58] to delete this and I'm going to play the

[41:00] first clip I'm going to go to the notes

[41:03] mode let me uh play this I'm going to go

[41:05] to notes so now when we do the duplicate

[41:08] thing here is going to work a little bit

[41:11] different so I'm going to be pressing

[41:13] the duplicate button I'm going to press

[41:15] it and this is what happens on the doll

[41:19] right there we can see that now we have

[41:20] two clips and it's playing the second

[41:23] one so whenever you in notes mode or

[41:25] chords you know whenever you are on this

[41:27] modes uh when you press the duplicate it

[41:29] will take whatever you have duplicated

[41:31] and play back the other one all right so

[41:34] what is the point of you know having all

[41:35] of this I'm going to go to clear and

[41:37] just clear the second and go to the

[41:38] first one so let's say you know I did

[41:41] something like this and I want to extend

[41:42] it and create different variation

[41:45] different variations so the whole point

[41:46] is that I can go to duplicate super fast

[41:49] and can

[41:50] enable and just record something on the

[41:53] go and it's going to do it for me now if

[41:57] I want to maybe made a mistake right

[41:59] there but now if I want to maybe take

[42:01] this and record a new variation I do

[42:04] duplicate is going to duplicate and now

[42:06] I can you know record something

[42:10] [Music]

[42:13] else and now just like that you know we

[42:17] have a three different clips doing

[42:20] something different if I go to this one

[42:23] it's going to play the first variation

[42:25] second variation the first variation and

[42:27] this is because the re is on I'm going

[42:29] to turn off uh the first variation the

[42:31] second one and then the third one and we

[42:34] just did you know into split of a second

[42:36] super super cool feature this device

[42:40] already gives us a lot you know with the

[42:42] notes the chords uh handling the

[42:44] sessions and everything else but you

[42:46] also have an extra custom mode and right

[42:48] here you can create your own mode and

[42:50] you have up to eight different modes you

[42:53] can customize and you can you know do a

[42:56] lot of things you can

[42:57] doll uh features or S CCS or you can do

[43:01] program change if you use this with syn

[43:03] or different synthesizers or different

[43:05] uh you know different devices you can

[43:07] configure this to send whatever message

[43:09] is that you want to uh send now the

[43:12] thing is that by uh from Factory and

[43:13] this is how I got it from Factory maybe

[43:15] it's just not like that from Factory uh

[43:18] when you go to custom mode and you go to

[43:20] your default eight custom modes you have

[43:24] nothing so for this you need to go to

[43:26] the web and use something called

[43:28] Novation components which is the app the

[43:30] web app or you can download Novation

[43:33] components and install it in your

[43:35] computer now once you do so and I have

[43:37] it you know I have it right here you can

[43:39] see it you know right there so when I go

[43:41] uh to there it's going to give us the

[43:44] factory custom modes and notice that you

[43:46] have eight so what you can do you can

[43:48] create your own custom mode or you just

[43:50] can maybe upload one of the ones that

[43:53] you have from Factory now when you click

[43:56] on one of on the custom modes you can

[43:58] see what they do for example the first

[44:00] one it says eight unipolar uh vertical

[44:03] faders set it to CC and a specific

[44:07] number and then seven and then through

[44:09] 14 so I'm going to send it you know I'm

[44:11] going to send it to the mode one so when

[44:13] you click Send to the Launchpad Pro you

[44:15] need to se select the slot in this case

[44:18] I'm going to say number one I'm going to

[44:19] override whatever custom mode I have

[44:21] nothing so I'm not going to override

[44:23] anything so if I go to to custom mode

[44:25] now and I go to the first one we have

[44:28] eight different sliders which is you

[44:30] know what it says right there and each

[44:32] of them will output ccs to you know to

[44:37] different uh numbers so this is what you

[44:40] do you just uh create a mode where you

[44:42] do something very specific now from

[44:45] Factory you have a you know the this

[44:47] ones that the ones that you get right

[44:49] here they all do different things but

[44:51] the things that you can create your own

[44:53] uh to do this I'm going to go to new

[44:55] custom mode I'm going to go there and

[44:57] I'm going to say create a custom Mo now

[44:59] right there on the right side it tells

[45:01] you what you can do you can add a

[45:03] vertical uni poar fader maybe I'm going

[45:06] to drag and drop and I'm going to do so

[45:08] and when you do so it's going to ask you

[45:10] the CC number which Med Channel if you

[45:13] need to change that you can change the

[45:15] color if you want it to and then once

[45:17] you're done you just close it and you

[45:19] keep adding more more things for example

[45:21] if I want to add a chromatic keyboard

[45:23] well that's not going to work because

[45:24] the chromatic keyboard uses two complete

[45:27] uh you know uh vertical I'm sorry

[45:29] horizontal rows so you know you kind of

[45:31] need a free spot to do that but you can

[45:34] add other things like a drum grid once

[45:36] you do so it will again ask you more

[45:38] questions and once you're done you click

[45:41] it and then again you have a lot of

[45:42] things including program change and some

[45:46] odd features that you can add to your

[45:48] custom modes let's say I want the drum

[45:51] pad right here and I want more you know

[45:54] maybe uh faders right I'm going to maybe

[45:56] choose different colors I'm going to

[45:58] maybe put a medy note right here you can

[46:00] of course set it up and then maybe I

[46:02] want to do some program change and this

[46:04] one it's going to ask you what you want

[46:06] to do and once you're done customizing

[46:09] your uh your custom mode you just send

[46:12] it or you can of course save it and this

[46:14] will save it on your own custom modes or

[46:16] your account in this case I'm going to

[46:18] send it I don't want to save it I'm

[46:20] going to send it to the number two and

[46:22] once I'm done I'm going to overwrite the

[46:24] whatever custom mode and now if I go to

[46:26] the device and I go to the number two

[46:28] you know we got what what was promised

[46:31] we got the fader and then right here you

[46:33] know we have the the other fader which

[46:35] uh right now it's kind of a my fail

[46:38] because it's mapping the same CC's so uh

[46:42] by modifying this is modifying the

[46:44] second line and by modifying this one is

[46:46] just you know modifying the other one

[46:48] but then again you have the the drums

[46:50] and then you have the send the send and

[46:52] then the program change so all this is

[46:54] something that you need to do on your

[46:56] own configure and this is a super

[46:59] important tool especially if you want to

[47:02] do something extra with you know again

[47:04] external synthesizers or external

[47:07] external hardware let's say that you

[47:09] want to do some very specific features

[47:12] or to trigger some very specific things

[47:14] on your doll for example and you know

[47:16] that the doll is going to respond to a

[47:18] very specific CC and a fader well you

[47:21] know you create a custom mode you target

[47:23] all whatever all your faders You map it

[47:25] to the CCS that you want and when you go

[47:27] to the custom mode you can control

[47:30] different things on your on your doll

[47:32] you know that's the main idea of having

[47:34] a custom mode and you have eight of this

[47:37] you can go you know you can go crazy one

[47:40] more thing that you need to know is that

[47:41] when you have a custom mode you need you

[47:44] can go to the configurations of the

[47:47] custom mode the only thing that you can

[47:49] do right here is going to be the medy

[47:51] channel by default right now all of them

[47:54] are going to medy channel number one

[47:56] remember you have have 16 so the C the

[47:59] custom number one is going to the one

[48:01] but maybe the the custom uh mode to I

[48:05] wanted to for this one to go to the 16

[48:07] so if I go to 16 now it's sending to the

[48:10] 16 so if I go to the third one notice I

[48:13] can change the third to I don't know the

[48:15] mey the the mey channel number three but

[48:18] it's going to show you which ones are

[48:20] you know occupied you know the the one

[48:23] the custom mode One is using channel

[48:24] number one the custom mode channel two

[48:27] uh the the two is using the channel 16

[48:30] and now you know the three is using the

[48:32] the the three then maybe the four is

[48:34] going to use the two and so on and so on

[48:37] so it will tell you which uh channels

[48:40] are occupied already for your C for your

[48:42] custom modes and okay if you press this

[48:44] setup option it will give you more

[48:47] options right here at the bottom you can

[48:49] see what you can select you have again

[48:51] different options and all of them are

[48:53] super you know confusing because you

[48:55] don't see the letters or what they do

[48:58] you need to go to the manual but you

[48:59] know you don't need to I'm going to let

[49:01] you know what they do right now you need

[49:03] to know is that you need to hold it in

[49:05] order to get the screen so this is going

[49:07] to be the let intensity I guess I

[49:10] already showed you this there's a

[49:11] different way to adjust the brightness

[49:14] of this I'm going to go all the way to

[49:16] minimum and then at the bottom you have

[49:18] two extra options so right here you can

[49:20] turn off the lets and this means that

[49:22] when you turn it off of course you're

[49:24] pretty much kind of uh like turning off

[49:26] the the device all the lets to save

[49:28] energy as soon as you press something

[49:30] it's going to go back um it's going to

[49:32] be this one now this one is the Vegas

[49:35] mode if you turn it off right now it's

[49:37] red which means it's off and this is the

[49:39] uh the Vegas mode whenever you don't use

[49:42] this it's going to go on a show it's

[49:44] called Vegas mode it will use that Vegas

[49:47] mode if you don't like it and I really

[49:50] don't like the Vegas mode I think it's

[49:52] just annoying to see uh you can turn it

[49:55] off from here that's the the the let I'm

[49:58] going to go to the next option and this

[50:00] one is going to be above the velocity

[50:02] now you don't have a lot of options

[50:04] right here this one is going to turn off

[50:06] the velocity so now of course let me

[50:08] just go uh maybe

[50:10] to the first one I have no no velocity

[50:15] just completely off so right here you

[50:17] can turn it off and

[50:19] now you get the velocity back so notice

[50:22] that when you turn it off or turn it on

[50:25] this options right here at the B at the

[50:27] bottom they just you know go away and

[50:29] this is because this is the velocity

[50:31] curve so if I go here this one is going

[50:33] to be low this one is going to be medium

[50:36] and this one is going to be high and all

[50:38] this is you know again about V velocity

[50:41] right here on this options this one's

[50:44] what what they are they are just

[50:45] different profiles of velocity for

[50:47] example if I stay on this one for

[50:50] example if I stay on this one and I

[50:54] press and I'm not pressing really hard

[50:57] it's

[50:58] just no it's okay I guess you know you

[51:00] you cannot feel it I can feel it but I'm

[51:03] not doing super hard it's just you know

[51:06] very soft we get that now I'm going to

[51:08] go to the other side to the other to the

[51:10] uh minimum let's say I'm going to do the

[51:12] same that is is just softer so these are

[51:16] just you know different profiles

[51:17] profiles in terms of velocity I guess

[51:20] this one is the default and right here

[51:22] you just need to go to the settings and

[51:24] try the setting that you like the most

[51:27] so then we have after touch in terms of

[51:30] after Touch by default it's going to be

[51:32] um you know it's going to be on or off

[51:33] depends on what you want to do so if you

[51:36] go to here you're pretty much disabling

[51:38] the aftertouch you're turning it off and

[51:41] you have two options you have the poly

[51:44] after touch which is this option and

[51:46] then you have Channel pressure it's two

[51:49] different types of uh after touch it's

[51:51] again completely up to you still when

[51:53] you are on either uh mode at the bottom

[51:57] you this is the threshold this is going

[51:59] to be off and you have two different

[52:01] profiles the low and the high again all

[52:04] this just you know for after touch and

[52:06] you need to go right here and just

[52:08] configure it out so then you have the

[52:10] medy this one is just pretty simple this

[52:13] one is going to be the receive and this

[52:15] one is the transmit and I'm talking

[52:17] about the clock this is the mey clock on

[52:19] and off and then on the other side and

[52:22] notice that you don't have a lot on the

[52:23] other side you have the out two and they

[52:26] through so this is the um you know the

[52:28] medi out pretty much so if I go here

[52:31] nothing happens you know you can select

[52:34] either through or the out two so at the

[52:38] back right there at the back you have

[52:40] the medy out and you have an out one and

[52:42] an out two so pretty much when you are

[52:44] selecting out two it means that out two

[52:47] will duplicate whatever the output one

[52:50] which is the default will do now this

[52:53] one is the fader velocity again you

[52:55] don't have a lot of options so this one

[52:57] is the uh the one that I I was talking

[52:59] about the the the animation that you get

[53:01] when you talk you press the faders by

[53:04] default the animation uh it's kind of

[53:06] off on on so if I turn it off now if I

[53:10] maybe go to volume whatever I press it

[53:12] is going to be super you know super fast

[53:15] it doesn't care about the velocity I

[53:18] press to change or you know to change

[53:20] the volume it's just going to go and do

[53:22] it if I go again and turn it on remember

[53:25] that the veloc if I do super slow it's

[53:27] going to take a long time to get there

[53:30] now maybe uh because I was you know I

[53:33] asked myself when I just got this device

[53:36] what is the purpose of you know having

[53:38] this type of Animation or velocity when

[53:41] we change values and it's if you think

[53:43] about this if you're performing or doing

[53:45] something live if this is off right you

[53:48] have it off and you tap this is going to

[53:51] go really aggressively all the way down

[53:53] depend you know whatever is that you're

[53:54] doing maybe it's volume maybe it's

[53:56] panning whatever it doesn't matter so

[53:57] it's super aggressive so if you turn it

[54:00] on by using velocity you can handle how

[54:04] fast you want that transition so if you

[54:07] are maybe working you use this uh on a

[54:09] doll and you work at home maybe you

[54:12] don't get give an f about the the

[54:14] transitioning so you can go there and

[54:16] just turn it off and use it like a

[54:18] normal you know fader now one more thing

[54:21] before you go I'm going to unplug this

[54:24] just going to turn it off and I'm just

[54:26] plug it in and I'm going to plug it in

[54:29] again but first i'm going to hold the

[54:31] setup and then I'm going to plug it in

[54:33] so when you do this it's going to give

[54:34] you uh kind of the the configuration uh

[54:37] for the device I can release it this is

[54:40] the boot loader menu at the top you can

[54:43] you have the device ID and maybe you

[54:45] don't see it the camera is not showing

[54:47] it because of the exposure and light and

[54:49] the brightness right here at the top is

[54:51] selecting the number one so it means

[54:53] that the device ID of this device is the

[54:56] the device ID number one but you have

[54:58] you know 16 what is the meaning of this

[55:01] let's say that you have two different

[55:02] devices two different uh the launch pad

[55:05] launch pads and you want to use it

[55:08] within the same session within the same

[55:10] doll how can the doll recognize which

[55:12] device is which so if this one is the

[55:14] number one let's say that I use a

[55:16] different a different uh Launchpad I'm

[55:19] going to give it the ID of two so aun or

[55:22] whatever other da will be able to

[55:24] recognize the device you know BAS based

[55:26] on the ID of each device and you know

[55:29] that's pretty much it then at the bottom

[55:30] you have the brightness this is the

[55:32] normal I have it had it all the way down

[55:35] so it's pretty bright if you think about

[55:37] this and it's again completely up to you

[55:41] uh I'm going to keep it all the way down

[55:43] at the bottom you can this one if you

[55:45] press it is going to show you the boot

[55:47] loader version you know if you care

[55:49] about that then is going to show you the

[55:53] uh the application version now this this

[55:55] this one the botom if you press it it's

[55:57] going to exit the boot loader this menu

[56:00] and just you know go back to normal mode

[56:02] then the yellow one is the easy start so

[56:06] when you buy this and you connect it to

[56:07] your computer your computer will

[56:09] recognize this as a mass storage device

[56:12] and inside there if you go to the drive

[56:15] you have the access to the manuals and

[56:17] the quick start the application and

[56:19] everything else so that's why it's

[56:20] called easy start right so the thing is

[56:23] that after you uh learn how to use it uh

[56:26] you keep using it you don't need the

[56:28] easy start anymore so if you turn it off

[56:32] right so you just turn it off it's going

[56:34] to take a little just a little little

[56:36] little bit of time right so now it's off

[56:38] it will uh not appear anymore as a mass

[56:41] storage device so again if if you want

[56:43] to use this to turn it on but again once

[56:46] you understand how to use it and once

[56:48] you actively use use this device you

[56:51] don't need this feature and if I press

[56:54] this it's going to exit and and you know

[56:56] restart and go back to the normal mode

[56:59] and okay so we are done on this video uh

[57:02] the only thing I didn't cover is the

[57:04] sequencer right here and the projects

[57:07] I'm going to upload a video just

[57:08] covering the sequencer and the projects

[57:11] I guess I'm going to be uploading it

[57:13] maybe tomorrow or day after tomorrow uh
