Use the Ultrabeat parameter offset shortcut menu<br />

mm<br />

Control-click (or right-click) any step in the (parameter) offset row to open a shortcut menu, then<br />

choose one of the following commands.<br />

••<br />

Alter: Changes the (selected) parameter values, for all steps, by a random amount.<br />

••<br />

Randomize: Creates a new, random value for the selected parameter.<br />

Note: Consider saving your sequence/pattern before using either of the above commands.<br />

••<br />

Delete: Deletes all steps for the currently selected parameter.<br />

Mute, solo, and reset Ultrabeat parameter offsets<br />

mm<br />

Click the M(ute), S(olo), and Reset buttons in the parameter offset row.<br />

••<br />

M(ute): Mutes the offsets of the selected parameter. This does not remove or reset<br />

existing offsets.<br />

••<br />

S(olo): Enables you to hear the effect of your offsets on the selected parameter only.<br />

••<br />

Reset: All offset values for the selected parameter are set to zero (no offset). A second click on<br />

the Reset button removes the parameter from the Parameter Offset menu.<br />

Note: The Reset button at the left of the velocity/gate row changes to Delete when clicked<br />

once. This Delete button mirrors the behavior of the Delete command: It deletes all steps for<br />

the currently selected parameter.<br />

Export Ultrabeat patterns as MIDI regions<br />

Patterns programmed in Ultrabeat’s internal step sequencer can be exported as MIDI regions<br />

into Logic Pro.<br />

Export an Ultrabeat pattern into Logic Pro<br />

1 Choose the pattern that you want to export from Ultrabeat’s Pattern pop-up menu.<br />

2 Select the area to the left of the Pattern pop-up menu.<br />

3 Drag the pattern to the target position on the respective Ultrabeat track.<br />

A region is created containing all MIDI events, including Swing and Accent parameter settings.<br />

Accents are interpreted as polyphonic pressure events. Step automation events, created in Step<br />

mode, are also exported as part of the MIDI region.<br />

Note: To avoid double-triggering while playing back the exported MIDI region, turn off<br />
