Tracker Mode

Overview

Tracker mode presents your pattern as a vertical grid of note data — like a classic Amiga/PC tracker. Each row is a step, and columns show note, velocity, duration, slide, and chance values.

You can switch between Grid and Tracker input modes in Settings → PATTERN INPUT.

Columns

Column	Meaning	Range
NOTE	Note name (C-4, D#5, etc.) — drum tracks show ***	C-3 to B-4
VEL	Velocity (volume)	00–99 (00 = 100%)
DUR	Duration in steps	01–16
SLD	Slide/glide to next note	SLD / ---
CHN	Chance (probability of firing)	10%–90% (--- = 100%)

Note Entry

Type a letter key (C D E F G A B) to enter a note. Add # for sharps. The octave is automatically set to match the previous note on the same track.

• Shift+Up / Shift+Down — transpose note ±1 octave

Navigation

Key	Action
Arrow Up / Down	Move cursor row
Arrow Left / Right	Move cursor column
PageUp / PageDown	Jump ±8 rows
[ / ]	Switch to previous / next track
Enter	Toggle step on/off (or toggle slide in SLD column)
Delete / Backspace	Clear step
0–9	Set value directly (VEL, DUR, CHN columns)

When to Use Tracker Mode

Tracker mode is ideal for:

• Precise note entry — type exact note values instead of clicking a grid
• Detailed velocity control — set exact velocity numbers
• Slide patterns — easily toggle slide on specific steps for acid bass lines
• Quick overview — see all data for a track at once in a compact format
