From the manual I see I can implement something like a control change of the pitch wheel at a certain step activation. If I wanted to do a bend of a note (up/down, down/up) this would have to affect over a number of steps I assume as control “on” amount of change, and then at a later sequence step a control amount change, then control “off.” Am I correct in my thinking? The speed of pitch change I assume would also have to be programmed over numerous sequence steps.

I also have a little difficulty understanding how clock is passed through. I am currently slaving the Zaquencer to another machine’s clock. Am I correct that clock will be passed through and merged with note and other CC data of the Zaquencer sent through both port A and port B simultaneously if set up to do so by one of two methods outlined in the manual?

Transpose Enable is to use an incoming MIDI note (let’s say from a connected MIDI keyboard) to transpose an entire sequence up or down, am I correct in understanding this? In a similar respect I can move between patterns using an external controller by way of CC with the Trigger Enable feature? So if I send out a CC 02 to the Zaquencer it will advance to pattern 2 and so on? This happens per track’s MIDI channel if each track is on it’s own MIDI channel I assume so I could remotely change patterns of any of the 4 tracks. Not sure if I am understanding this.

Can you do something akin to Elektron’s feature of a Trigless Lock? So a control change on a step without a note being triggered? Rather can a CC change be implemented on a muted note step?
