Common Arturia KeyStep 32-key Controller & Sequencer - White Questions
How do I sync the KeyStep's sequencer tempo to my DAW (Ableton, Logic, etc.) using MIDI?
Connect the KeyStep to your computer via USB or MIDI, then configure your DAW to send MIDI clock to the KeyStep. In the KeyStep's MIDI Control Center software, ensure 'Sync Source' is set to 'External'.
How do I save and recall patterns I've created on the KeyStep?
Press and hold the 'Shift' button, then press one of the 8 Sequence Memory buttons to save. To recall, simply press the corresponding Sequence Memory button without holding 'Shift'.
How do I transpose the notes being played on the KeyStep?
Use the Octave +/- buttons to transpose in octaves; for finer transposition, use the Shift button in combination with the transpose/sequence memory buttons as described in the manual.
My KeyStep isn't sending MIDI notes to my synthesizer. What could be the problem?
First, check the MIDI channel settings on both the KeyStep and your synthesizer, ensuring they match. Also, verify the connection type (USB or MIDI cable) is correctly configured in the KeyStep's MIDI Control Center.
What are the functions of the KeyStep's Arpeggiator, and how do I use the different Arp modes?
The Arpeggiator generates repeating note patterns based on held keys; activate it with the 'Arp' button and select different modes (Up, Down, Inclusive, etc.) with the 'Mode' knob to create varying rhythmic textures.
