roland mc909 noob
Hi - I've never had a groovebox or tried to make any sort of electronic music so I know this question is very dumb. I'm trying to just use the velocity pads to try and play a beat with my fingers. I select a empty pattern (1st one). Select a part (10 for example) - select a rythm patch for that part (tr909 kick or whatever) - press record - select the recording type (not real time) - hit play ... but the velocity pads dont produce any drum noises. The volume is up, its not on mute or anything. Whats weird though is if I press the cursor down and up buttons they play drum noises, but its like they cycle through them. And when I press the velocity pads I can see the markers for the pattern come up or whatever so I know the velocity pads work. Its almost like the cursor buttons are assigned to be the input for the drum sounds or something ridiculous like that. I have no clue I'm totally new to all this. Literally the 1st day I've ever played with this kind of stuff. So sorry if this is retarded. Thanks

bout to say you most likely need to follow the manual plus watch YouTube vids.
