Melody & the Stepper

The Melody Track turns the current chord into a line. Shape it two ways: parameters (broad strokes - octave, steps, gate, velocity, direction, time) and the Stepper (per-step control of eight lanes).

CAPTURE records a melody from your keyboard - realtime with optional count-in, or step by step at your own pace. The record flow is the same everywhere on UNA. → Manual Ch 9 - Melody Mode

The Stepper - eight lanes, 32 steps

Each lane is an independent step sequence over the melody: Pitch, Gate, Velocity, Slice, Octave, Channel, Delay, Layers. Lanes have their own lengths - and that's the point:

STEPS doesn't limit the true sequence length. Patterns of different lengths drift out of phase and only realign much later - two simple patterns make one long, complex sequence. This is the joy of parametric sequencing. → Manual Ch 10

Stepper action	What it does
EDIT	Step-by-step lane editing: rotate CONTROL to move, press-and-rotate to change a value. MULTI selects blocks; special values: TIE/SLIDE on Gate, ACCENT/MUTE on Velocity.
LOAD	Factory patterns, your saved patterns, or random generation as a starting point.
MORPH	Transform the whole lane - shape, filter, morph amount - instead of editing step by step.
SAVE	Build your own pattern library, 16 user slots.
