    Explanation

    Pads [1]–[16]

    • The empty pads to which samples haven’t been assigned blink yellow.
      When you press the empty pad to which you want to assign the sample, it lights up green.
    • Pads to which samples have already been assigned light up dark orange.
      If you press a pad for which a sample is already assigned, the pad lights up red. The assigned sample is then overwritten.
