For better sound dynamics, lets go to step 2 and place a note there. When producing 4/4 music, often times you will not want anything to play on the 1, because the kick drum is already on that step. If we click on step 1 in the sequence, we can choose the note that we want to play for that step in the sequence. This is where some general music theory can come in handy if you have it.

Now that we’ve gone over how to set the pattern length, let's learn how to input some notes into the sequencer.

And this is what the full 16 step pattern sounds like. If you shorten the pattern to 1 bar (4 steps), you can hear how it shortens the pattern to be quite repetitive. Simply click on the orange Pattern Length button, which will flash red when engaged, and then click the red dot under the desired step to adjust pattern length. Once you’ve engaged Pattern Write mode, you will be able to edit the pattern length or time signature. Notice to the right of the 16 step sequencer where it says step number and pattern length. Click this to engage pattern write mode, which will also light up red. Next, under the section Pattern Control & Edit, you will find the red Pattern Write button. For this tutorial, this is the only one out of the 3 diodes within this section that should be engaged.

section-and it will light up Red to indicate that it is engaged. Click the internal sequence diode, under the SEQ. To begin, you’ll want to ensure that your sequencer is set to internal, so that Phoscyon is using it’s own internal sequencer to create the pattern. Let’s get started learning how to create the bassline featured in this tutorial. Let’s solo Phoscyon from the other parts, and remove any effects so that you only can hear the dry bass sound. This is a clip of what Phosycon can sound like within a song. In this tutorial, we’ll learn how to write a pattern using the internal sequencer and save it for later use. D16’s Phoscyon Bassline is Virtual Instrument that emulates the classic 303 acid bass sound popularized by electronic dance music from the 1980s to the present.
