Ultrabeat interface in MainStage

The Ultrabeat user interface is divided into three main sections.

• Assignment section: Displays all drum sounds in a drum kit. You can select, name, and organize drum sounds here. This section also includes a small mixer, used to adjust the level and pan position of each sound. See Ultrabeat Assignment section overview.

• Synthesizer section: Used to create and shape individual drum sounds. The parameters of the drum sound selected in the Assignment section are displayed in the Synthesizer section. See Ultrabeat Synthesizer section overview.

• Step sequencer: Used to create and control sequences and patterns. A sequence triggers a single drum sound, and can consist of up to 32 steps. A pattern contains the sequences for all 25 sounds. You can trigger and control sounds with the step sequencer in place of—or in addition to—MIDI notes entering Ultrabeat from MainStage or a keyboard. See Ultrabeat step sequencer overview.
