Ableton/Live/UG/35 Push 1/07 Melodic Sequencer + 32 Notes
- Combines step sequencing with real-time playing across several octaves on one page, useful for working out chords and longer phrases.
- The bottom half plays scale notes and selects them for sequencing; selected notes show in a lighter track color. Hold Select to select without playing.
- Colors: blue is the root, blue-green is selected, green is playing, white is in scale.
- Octave Up and Down shift the range;
Shift with the touch strip moves by octaves and Shift with Octave moves by one scale note. The Scale menu applies here too.
- Tapping a step in the top half adds all selected notes to it. Holding a step shows its notes in blue-green below; tap one to remove it. Holding several steps adds the notes to all of them.
- Hold Duplicate, press a step, then another to copy notes on top of the destination.
- Colors: blue has notes, green is playing, white is selected, dull yellow is muted, gray is empty; with triplets the two right columns go unlit and unused.
- Two pages, or two bars, show at 16ths. Hold Note for loop length pads in the fifth row;
Shift + Note locks them. Page copy and clear work as in Ableton/Live/UG/35 Push 1/06 Step Sequencing Melodies and Harmonies/01 Adjusting the Loop Length.
