Timeline

Hits: drag to move in time, or up and down to another row's pad; drag the right edge to resize; double-click empty space to add. Alt ignores the grid. Rows: M mutes, S solos — for playback and export. Select: drag a box over hits, Shift-click to add or remove one, or drag along the bar ruler to grab everything in that stretch. Selected hits move together; ⌘C / ⌘V / ⌘D copy, paste at the green line, duplicate. Repeats: drag along the ruler, then "Repeat section" — it plays that stretch that many times before moving on (click the ×N badge to change it). Start point: click the ruler to set the green line; Play and Record begin there. Red line = end, drag it.

Light patterns

Pick a colour and paint the pads (drag to paint several). Add frames to animate. Saved patterns appear in the Light show menu and each pad's Lights menu as "My pattern: …".

Plug in the Launchpad first, then click Start and allow MIDI access. Use Chrome or Edge — Safari doesn't support MIDI.
