Anyone have info on the algorithmic custom play modes, C1-C20? Are these customisable, or pre-set? If pre-set, how does each work?

Thanks.

There are 20 unique custom play mode Fx’s available. They’re giving you the option to shuffle your existing patterns. Works based on predefined (hardcoded) algorithmic changes to the existing steps (relocation, repeat, rolls).

Thanks. Do you know where I can find documentation that explains how each algorithm works?

The documentation is not something that is available handy for sharing widely.

What I did was make a test pattern where each step was an obviously different sound. Kick, snare, hat, zap, vocal, stab, bass, etc. As different as possible.

Then you can more clearly hear what happens to each step. It’s a brilliant feature. I just wish we had hundreds more patterns and that they involved slides and other FX too.
