Hello all!

I juat picked up a Machinedrum (its wonderful!) and I have a quick question...

On page 42 of the manual it states (under PATTERN COPY:)

" 1. Make sure you are in GRID COMPOSING mode, indicated by the <RECORD> led giving 
off a stedy light."

Is this wrong? (a typo in the manual?)

Well....it seems to me that when this <RECORD> led is ON (not flashing) you can only copy 
a TRACK.

And when the <RECORD> led is OFF or BLINKING you can copy a PATTERN...

Is the manual wrong here? or am missing something?

Thanks!

if u are in record mode u copy the selected track - if record is off u copy the pattern

You are correct. If record is lit, you copy the current track, if record 
is off, you copy the entire pattern.

Tweak the any of the knobs while recording on the MD and it will 
record your movements. It might be a good idea to have a quick glance 
at the manual!! --- In elektron-users@yahoogroups.com, "dominik

Press play and record, then tweak away!
 Maybe take a tiny peak at the manual also!
