Just picked up the TR-1000, and it's my first serious drum machine and my first step into a DAWless setup. I've been jamming with it over the last few hours and have some questions. The manual doesn’t clearly answer this, and neither Google nor AI sources are helping. Without changing projects, is there a way to start with a blank setup (stock kit without a pattern) or use multiple kits or patterns in one project? Songs don't seem to do anything or modify any settings from the first slot. What do songs actually do?

Hi, I finally received my tr-1000 today and I’m stoked!

Something is unclear to me in regards to it’s motion function (elektron style p-locks):

Let’s say I have a 808 bassline on a track, and want to p-lock it’s decay. I have motion turned on, press and hold a step, click right so that the display is showing “motion”. I shorten the decay for that step but then it shortens the decay of all the notes. Then I have to go back to every note and increase the decay.

Is this a bug or am I doing it wrong?

Thanks!
