buttons (GROUPA) - (GROUPD) select between 4 groups each containing 99 patterns and 12 sounds.
the 12 pads can be populated with sounds, and also functions as a number pad.
(minus) and (plus) are central controls of K.O.II allowing you to switch between scenes and patterns, adjust pattern length, navigate to the next or previous step, move to the next bar, browse effects, nudge notes, adjust tempo, choose sounds and more.
(SHIFT) is the gateway to other functions or menus.
for example, if you press the SOUND button, you enter SOUND mode, but if you press (SHIFT) + (SOUND) you enter SOUND EDIT mode! (SHIFT) works with almost every button on K.O.II.
the fader on K.O.II is a great way to quickly adjust various parameters in a given group. by default the fader will control group volume (level).
to select the function of the fader, hold down (FADER) and choose from the options above the pads.
(KNOBX) and (KNOBY) allow you to control the various parameters within K.O.II ranging from FX levels through to tempo, swing and compressor speed.
pro-tip! holding (SHIFT) while turning (KNOBX) or (KNOBY) makes them react slower allowing you to make precise adjustments!
