2. THE MODEL:SAMPLES
When we started working on what came to be Model:Samples, the guiding principle was brief but compre-
hensive: to make the distance between idea and groove as short as possible. We wanted to make a product
that was hands-on and direct – but without skipping on the core Elektron functionality. The way we tried
to achieve this was by maximizing the eciency of our approach to music making. The legendary Elektron
sequencer, a powerful and great sounding sound engine, the abundance of clever performance tricks – they
are all there. But in a more straightforward manner than ever. The direct access to all vital sound shaping
parameters and creative beat functions ensures a more immediate experience, greatly enhancing the fluidi-
ty of the music making process.
Switch it on. Quickly create a rhythm and then twist it to your liking. Enjoy. We hope Model:Samples will
become your prime source of both expected and unexpected beats.
Sincerely,
The Elektron Team

5.3.1 TRIGGER SAMPLES
The Model:Sample’s six sequencer tracks are mainly used to trigger and control samples. Each track can
contain one sample together with all the track related parameter settings. For more information, please
see “9. TRACK RELATED PARAMETERS” on page 33.
5.3.2 SEND MIDI
All sequencer tracks on the Model:Samples can also be set to send sequencer data through the MIDI
OUT or USB ports to control external, MIDI equipped, gear. Each track sends note and velocity data over
MIDI. For more information, please see “8.4.2 MOUT” on page 24.
5. OVERVIEW OF THE MODEL:SAMPLES

7. MODEL:SAMPLES CONTROLS
7.1 TRIG KEYS
The keys have several uses, including for example, placing trigs in GRID RECORDING mode and [TRIG]
playing a sample chromatically. When pressed in combination with the [PATTERN] they select patterns.
The keys light up to indicate the position of placed trigs and to indicate the selected bank and track.[TRIG]
7.2 ROTARY ENCODERS
The LEVEL/DATA MAIN VOLUME PARAMETER, and knobs (with which you set various parameter values),
are relative encoders which may be spun any number of turns.
7.3 PADS
The Model:Samples can be played using the pads The responsive pads are made of sturdy synthetic [T1–6]
rubber and are velocity sensitive. Pressing a pad triggers its track sound and also sets the pads track to
active.
7.3.1 PAD/VEL MENU
Here you can set several parameters related to the pads. Press + [T1–6] [FUNC] [BACK] to access the
PAD menu. Use the LEVEL/DATA knob to navigate the menu and change the parameter settings.
FIX Pad velocity set the pads to trig with a fixed velocity, and sets the value of the fixed velocity. OFF
sets the pads to respond to dynamic velocity. (1–127, OFF)
VDEP Volume depth sets the depth of the velocity modulation of the volume (amplifier).
(0–127)
DST Destination selects the modulation destination for the velocity. Preview how the velocity modu-
lation aects the sound by highlighting a destination. For more information, please see “APPENDIX B:
MODULATION DESTINATIONS” on page 54.
DDEP Destination depth sets the depth and polarity of the velocity modulation. Both negative (invert-
ed) and positive modulation depth is possible. A setting of 0, equals no modulation depth. (-64.0–63.0)
Press and hold [FUNC] + [BACK] for a second to toggle the fixed velocity on/o.
7.4 KEY BEHAVIOR
As a group, the track selection keys ( pads) have radio button functionality, i.e., when a new track is [T1–6]
set to be active, the previous one is simultaneously deactivated. You can only select one track at a time.
The , , [FUNC] [TRACK] [PATTERN] [RETRIG], and keys are almost always used in combination with other
keys.
7.5 MIDI NOTES
You can use an external MIDI device (a MIDI keyboard or a computer, for example) to send MIDI note values
to trig several functions on the Model:Samples.
Of the 128 notes in the standard MIDI range, Note numbers 0–5 correspond to notes C0 through to F0, the
leftmost octave (which is sometimes called C-2–F-2 in some applications). These notes trigger the sample
of track 1 through track 6, respectively (provided they are set to their default channels 1-6). These note
values map to each of the six tracks, regardless of which track is active.
MIDI note numbers 12–60 (corresponding to notes C1–C5, the second through to fifth octaves in the MIDI
range) trigger the sample of the active track in any of its 49 chromatic variations (as if played by the [TRIG]
keys in CHROMATIC mode, see section below), from lowest to highest pitch.
7. MODEL:SAMPLES CONTROLS

MIDI program change messages 0–95 selects pattern 1–96 (A01–F16) on the Model:Samples. Additionally,
MIDI CC messages can be sent to control various aspects of the Model:Samples. For more information,
please see “APPENDIX A: MIDI SPECIFICATIONS” on page 53.
7.6 CHROMATIC MODE
In CHROMATIC mode, you can play the sample of the active track chromatically. The CHROMATIC mode is
the Model:Samples default mode.

“8.3.2 GRID RECORDING MODE” on page 23 and “8.3.3 LIVE RECORDING MODE” on page 23.
2. Press [TRACK] [T1–6]+ pads to select the track you want to play chromatically.
3. Press the keys to play the sample chromatically with a varying pitch. The range from [TRIG] [TRIG 1] key
to [TRIG 16] [TRIG 9] key is 16 semi-tones. The key trigs the sample’s root note (If is set to 0, see KBT
below).
4. You can also transpose the note range that the keys cover. Press + [TRIG] [FUNC] [TRACK] to open the
TRACK SETUP menu and use the LEVEL/DATA knob to change the settings. The actual transpose KBT
range is -24–24 semi-tones.
Notes trigged chromatically can be recorded by the sequencer in LIVE RECORDING mode. For more infor-
mation, please see “8.3.3 LIVE RECORDING MODE” on page 23.
You can also use an external keyboard or controller to play the active tracks Sound chromat-
ically. Connect the keyboard to the Model:Samples and configure the external keyboard and
the Model:Samples MIDI Auto Channel (SETTINGS > MIDI > CHANNELS) to the same MIDI
channel. Then play the keys on the external keyboard to play the active tracks sample chro-
matically. You can play the active track’s sample chromatically from an external source even
when you are not in CHROMATIC mode.
8. THE SEQUENCER
22
8. THE SEQUENCER
8.1 ABOUT PATTERNS
The sequencer of the Model:Samples stores information in patterns. The patterns are the primary data
container for the Model:Samples. A pattern controls the playback of the six tracks and various pattern-spe-
cific aspects of the tracks and contains up to six samples (one for each track). Each of the six banks, A to F,
contains 16 patterns, which means 96 patterns are available for each project.
A pattern contains:
• General trig settings such as default note pitch, retrig and velocity
• The parameter settings
• The FX settings for the delay and the reverb
• Swing settings
• Quantization settings
• Note trigs for all tracks
• Lock trigs for all tracks
• Conditional locks
• Sample locks
• Length and time signature for the tracks
• BPM
• Track MIDI ON/OFF
• Keyboard transpose
8.2 BASIC PATTERN OPERATIONS
Model:Samples can seamlessly switch between patterns. This functionality, together with the ability to

8.3 EDITING A PATTERN
Model:Samples oers two main modes of input when editing or creating a pattern, GRID RECORDING mode
and LIVE RECORDING mode. In these modes, you can add two types of trigs: note trigs and lock trigs.
8.3.1 TRIG TYPES
A trig is a sequencer event that you can place when you want the sequencer to perform an action on the
Model:Samples. There are two types of trigs that you can use, note trigs and lock trigs.
• NOTE TRIGS trigger samples or MIDI notes.
• LOCK TRIGS trigger parameter locks (but does not trigger samples or MIDI notes). For more infor-
mation, please see “8.12.1 PARAMETER LOCKS” on page 27.
A red key indicates that a note trig is placed on the sequencer step. A slowly blinking red [TRIG] [TRIG]
key indicates a lock trig. Unlit keys indicate steps that do not contain any trigs. Trigs are added [TRIG]
dierently in the sequencer, depending on if GRID RECORDING or LIVE RECORDING mode is active.
8.3.2 GRID RECORDING MODE
GRID RECORDING is a method of composing where you use the keys to add trigs.[TRIG]
1. Enter GRID RECORDING mode by pressing the [RECORD] key. The key lights up red to [RECORD]
indicate that GRID RECORDING mode is active.
2. Press [TRACK] + [T1–6] to select the track to which you want to add trigs. A red pad indi-[T1–6]
cates the active track.
3. Place note trigs on the sequencer using the 16 keys. To add a lock trig, press [TRIG] [FUNC] and
[TRIG]. Press the [TRIG] key of any of the previously entered trigs if you wish to remove the trig.
Press the key of a lock trig to convert it to a note trig. Press a key of a trig and hold [TRIG] [TRIG]

If the pattern contains more than 16 steps, select the pattern page you want to edit by pressing the
[PAGE] key. A lit <PATTERN PAGE> LED shows the active pattern page.
Press [RECORD] to exit the GRID RECORDING mode.
• You can use an external MIDI controller such as a keyboard to input NOTE and TRIG
VELOCITY data when you are in GRID RECORDING mode. Just press and hold a [TRIG]
key, and then play a note on the external keyboard.
• If you use an external MIDI controller to record to the Model:Samples MIDI tracks, the
sequencer receives data on the Auto MIDI channel and records on the active track. For
more information, please see “11.3.2 IN CHAN” on page 40.
• All trigs of a track can be shifted forwards or backward on the sequencer. While in GRID
RECORDING mode, hold down [TRACK] while turning LEVEL/DATA
8.3.3 LIVE RECORDING MODE
LIVE RECORDING mode is the second method of adding trigs to the tracks. In this recording mode, the

8.4.1 KBT
Keyboard Transpose sets the transpose value of the note range that the keys cover when you [TRIG]
use them to play the samples chromatically. The transpose range is -24–24 semi-tones.
8.4.2 MOUT
Will, when checked, send the tracks NOTE, VELOCITY, and TRIG LENGTH sequencer data to the Mod-
el:Samples MIDI OUT for control of external MIDI devices. The data are sent on the track’s MIDI channel
set in the CHANNELS menu. For more information, please see “11.3.3 OUT CHAN” on page 40.
If MOUT is checked the following functions also sends MIDI data:
• PADS The [T1–6] pads sends MIDI note data.
• TRIG KEYS The [TRIG] sends MIDI note data in CHROMATIC mode. keys
• MUTE, activating/deactivating mutes sends MIDI.
• TRACK PARAMETER and FX knobs sends MIDI data on their set channels.
• Tracks forwards the incoming note data on the AUTO channel from external MIDI con-
trollers to the MIDI OUT port for control of an external device.
• If MOUT is checked, the track sends the sequencer data both externally over MIDI and
internally to the tracks sample.
• Only the sequencer data for the NOTE, VEL, and LEN parameters are sent over MIDI. For
more information, please see “8.8 TRIG NOTE MENU” on page 26.
8.4.3 PAD
Defines the default note value of the trigs when pressing a pad. If the track is configured to send MIDI,
this is also the note value the pad sends via MIDI.

speed is greater than the duration of a sequencer step, trigs are created with additional internal steps (i.e.,
steps with retrig enabled). Each of the six tracks can have its own set of retrig settings. The retrig settings
are stored to the active pattern. Press + to access the RETRIG SETUP menu. Use [FUNC] [RETRIG] LEV-
EL/DATA to change the settings.
RTE Sets the retrig rate (1/1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6, 1/8, 1/10, 1/12, 1/16, 1/20, 1/24, 1/32, 1/40, 1/48, 1/64 or
1/80). 1/16 is the nominal retrig rate, one trig per step. 1/32 corresponds to two trigs per step and so on.
To trig triplets, for example, set the retrig rate to 1/12 (or 1/24).
LEN Sets the duration of the retrig velocity curve in fractions of, or rational or integer multiples of, a step
(0,125–INF). 1/16 is the nominal length of one step. This setting aects the behavior of the velocity curve
by defining the boundaries of its envelope.
A.ON Always On sets toggles the retrig function ON/OFF. When on, the retrig activates whenever the
pad of the active track is pressed, and there is no need to press first.[RETRIG]
If you press and hold [RETRIG] and then press a pad, it activates the retrig function and
play back the sample with the current retrig settings.
8.7 TRIG REPEAT MENU

tings. Press to select the track to set the scale for.[T1–6]
LEN Length sets the step length (amount of steps) of the pattern/track.
SCL Scale controls the speed of the playback in multiples of the current tempo. It oers seven possible
settings, 1/8X, 1/4X, 1/2X, 3/4X, 1X, 3/2X and 2X. A setting of 1/8X plays back the pattern at one-eighth of
the set tempo. 3/4X plays the pattern back at three-quarters of the tempo; 3/2X plays back the pattern
twice as fast as the 3/4X setting. 2X makes the pattern play at twice the BPM.
CHG Change controls for how long the active pattern plays before it loops or a cued (the next select-
ed) pattern begins to play. If is set to 64, the pattern behaves like a pattern consisting of 64 steps CHG
regarding cueing and chaining. If is set to OFF, the default change length is INF (infinite) in TRACK CHG
mode and the same value as in PATTERN mode.LEN
Trigs are automatically copied when extending the length of a pattern. If a pattern consists of, for example,
two pages and the pattern length is increased to four pages, and the two additional pattern pages are cop-
ies of the first two pattern pages.
• Press the [PAGE] key and [TRIG] keys to change the number of steps of the pattern quickly.
• A 2X SCL setting is useful for increasing the base resolution of the step sequencer to

1. Press and hold [BACK], and then turn the knob related to the parameter you want to remove. Keep
pressing [BACK] until the whole pattern has played.
Up to 80 dierent parameters can be locked in a pattern. A parameter counts as one (1)
locked parameter no matter how many trigs that lock it. If for example the cuto parame-
ter of the filter is locked on every sequencer step, there are still 79 other parameters that
can be locked.
8.12.2 SAMPLE LOCKS
Sample locks are a specific type of parameter locks that lets you assign a specific sample on any step of
the sequencer. This powerful feature makes it possible to use several samples on the same sequencer
track. On Model:Samples you can sample lock up to 26 dierent samples in each pattern (six of them are
the tracks linked samples).
The locked samples are added to the LOCKS directory in the root of the Sample Assign menu.

3. Press LEVEL/DATA to remove the sample lock.
Sample locks lets you use up to 26 dierent samples in each pattern. Any of those sam-
ples can be used on any track.
8.12.3 CONDITIONAL LOCKS
In GRID RECORDING mode, press and hold a key, and then turn to open the TRIG [TRIG] CHANCE
CONDITION menu.
Conditional locks are a specific kind of Parameter locks. Conditional locks give you the possibility to set
a number of conditional rules for any trig. These conditional rules are called Trig conditions. They are
logical conditions that determines whether a trig set in the sequencer is triggered or not. If the condition
is true, then the trig becomes active and aect the track.
You must first place a trig on the sequencer step to where you want to apply a conditional lock.
You can use the parameter to set the following trig conditions:TRIG COND
FILL is true (activates the trig) when FILL mode is active.
FILL is true when FILL is false. A trig with this trig condition is active when you are not in FILL mode.
PRE is true if the most recently evaluated trig condition on the same track was true. (PRE and PRE
conditions are ignored and not evaluated.)
PRE is true when PRE is false. A trig with this trig condition is active if the most recently evaluated trig
condition on the same track was false. (PRE and conditions are ignored and not evaluated.)PRE
Example 1: Trig 1, 50% = True > Trig 2, PRE = False > Trig 3, PRE = False > Trig 4, PRE = True
Example 2: Trig 1, 50% = False > Trig 2, PRE = True > Trig 3, PRE = True > Trig 4, PRE = False
NEI is true if the most recently evaluated trig condition on the neighbor track was true. (PRE and PRE
conditions on the neighbor track are ignored and not evaluated.) The neighbor track is the track
before the active track. For example, track 3 is the neighbor track of track 4. NEI and NEI conditional
trigs on track 4 evaluate the conditional trigs placed on track 3. The NEI condition is false if no condi-
tional trigs exist on the neighbor track.
NEI is true when NEI is false. A trig with this trig condition is active if the most recently evaluated trig
condition on the neighbor track was false. (PRE and PRE conditions on the neighbor track are ignored
and not evaluated.)
1ST is true the first time the pattern plays (when looped).
1ST is true when 1ST is false. A trig with this trig condition is always active apart from the first time the
pattern plays (when looped).
X% is a probability condition. There is an X% chance that the trig will be active.
8. THE SEQUENCER

You can also press and hold [PATTERN] + [TRIG 1–16] + [PLAY] to clear all pattern data.
Individual sequencer tracks can be copied, pasted and cleared in the same way as patterns but GRID
RECORDING mode must be active.
Trigs, complete with all parameter lock settings, can be copied, pasted and cleared as well. GRID RE-
CORDING mode needs to be active to access this functionality.
1. Press and hold one or several trigs and press to perform the copy operation. [RECORD]
2. Press and hold the key to where you want to paste your trig(s), and then press [TRIG] [STOP] to
paste the trig(s). When pasting several trigs, the trigs are placed in relation to the selected target
trig.
3. Clear trig note(s) by holding one or more trigs and press [PLAY].
4. To clear a specific parameter lock on a trig, press and hold the key, turn the T[TRIG] RACK PA-
RAMETER knob that controls the parameter with the parameter lock, and then and press [PLAY].

8.12.7 TEMPORARY SAVE AND RELOAD PATTERN COMMANDS
Patterns can instantly be saved to a temporary memory space and then reloaded again from this space.
• To perform a temporary save of the active pattern, press + . This function is use-[FUNC] [SETTINGS]
ful to create a restore point when you are live tweaking, but without permanently save your changes.
• To perform a temporary reload of the active pattern, press + [FUNC] [PATTERN]. It will reload the
pattern from when you last used the temporary save command. If you have not done any temporary
save, then the pattern reloads from the permanently saved state.
The TEMPORARY SAVE PATTERN and TEMPORARY RELOAD PATTERN commands are
great when improvising live. Any changes made to the active pattern, like adding bass line
notes or using CONTROL ALL, can immediately be undone. At the same time, the saves
and reloads will not aect the pattern in a permanent way.
The TEMPORARY SAVE PATTERN command does not save the pattern permanently, and
any changes are lost if you load another project. If you wish to save your changes perma-
nently, you should use SAVE PATTERN in the CONFIG menu. For more information, please
see “11.1.2 SAVE” on page 38.
8.13 CHAINS
Chains are sequences that consist of more than one pattern. You can use chains to preselect and automate
in what order you want your patterns to play.
You can create one chain, and it can contain any pattern in bank A–H. The chain can consist of up to 64
patterns.
1. Press and hold [PATTERN] [T1–T6] and then press to select a bank.

3. Press [TRIG 1–16] keys in the same order as you want the chained patterns to play. Keep a previous
[TRIG] key pressed while you press the next one, the one after that and so on. You can press the
same [TRIG] key again if you wish to add the pattern multiple times in a row. If you want to add a pattern
from another bank, press [T1–T6] [TRIG 1–16] to select a bank, and then press to select a pattern.
4. Press [PLAY] to start the sequencer and play the chain. The chain is looped and starts to play from
the beginning again after the final pattern of the chain has played.
• Chains can be created while the sequencer is running.
• You can also use MIDI program change messages from an external device to change
patterns on the Model:Samples. For more information, please see “11.3.1 SYNC” on page
39.
Please note that the chain are lost when you create a new chain or when you select a new
bank/pattern. Also, be aware of that chains cannot be saved and are lost when you switch the

9. TRACK RELATED PARAMETERS
Here follows a description of all of the parameters that are available to change the character and behavior
of the track’s samples.
9.1 PARAMETER EDITING
The TRACK PARAMETER knobs are used to change the values of the track parameters.
9.1.1 PARAMETER VALUE JUMP
Pressing while editing specific parameters makes the parameter values jump to appropriate [FUNC]
positions. For example, sample PITCH jumps whole octaves.
9.1.2 PARAMETER REVERT FUNCTION
If you have changed a parameter setting, you can press [BACK] to revert that change to the parame-
ters previous setting. This function has a time-out function, meaning that, after you adjusted the param-
eter, you have roughly three seconds to perform the revert operation before the change is permanent.
Changes made by setting parameter locks are revertable as long as you keep the key pressed. [TRIG]
9.1.3 CONTROL ALL
If you press and hold [TRACK] and use the TRACK PARAMETER knobs to change a parameter setting,
this change aects this parameter in all the tracks in the pattern. You can also use the Parameter Revert
function on Control All operations.
The Control All operation is also available for the track LEVEL/PAN and also for the LOOP
and REVERSE settings.
9.2 TRACK PARAMETERS
The track parameters may be parameter locked to other settings on any step of the pattern by (in GRID
RECORDING mode) first pressing and holding a key, and then changing the parameters’ settings [TRIG]
with the TRACK PARAMETER knobs. For more information, please see “8.12.1 PARAMETER LOCKS” on
page 27.
9.2.1 PITCH
Sample Pitch sets the tuning of the sample. This parameter is bipolar, and a value of 0 leaves the pitch
unchanged. (-24–+24, equivalent to four octaves.)
9.2.2 DECAY
Amp Decay sets the length of the decay phase of the amp envelope. (0–126, INF)
9.2.3 SAMPLE START
Sample Start sets the start position for playback of the sample. (0–120)
9.2.4 SAMPLE LENGTH
Sample Length sets the length of the playback of the sample. The Sample Length is defined from the
Sample Start position, so if you change the Sample Start value, you also change the Sample Length
position. (0–120)
The SAMPLE START SAMPLE LENGTHand parameters with LOOP set to ON.
Sample
Start Sample Length
9.2.5 CUTOFF
Filter Cuto sets the cuto frequency of the low-pass/high-pass filter. Negative parameter values make
the filter function as a low-pass filter. Positive parameter values make the filter function as a high-pass
filter. (-64–+63)
9. TRACK RELATED PARAMETERS
34
9.2.6 RESONANCE
Filter Resonance sets the resonance behavior of the filter. Resonance introduces a peak in the spectrum
at the cuto frequency. (0–127)
9.2.7 DELAY SEND
Delay Send sets the amount of the sound that is sent through to the Delay eect. For more information,
please see “10. FX PARAMETERS” on page 37. (OFF, 1–127)
9.2.8 REVERB SEND
Reverb Send sets the amount of the sound that is sent through to the Reverb eect. For more informa-
tion, please see “10. FX PARAMETERS” on page 37. (OFF, 1–127)
9.2.9 LFO SPEED
LFO Speed sets the speed of the LFO. Try settings of 8, 16 or 32 to sync the LFO to straight beats. The
knob is bipolar. The LFO cycle can be played backward by using negative values. You find more LFO
settings in the LFO and LFO SETUP menus. For more information, please see “9.6 LFO MENU” on page
35, and “9.7 LFO SETUP MENU” on page 36. (64–63)
9.2.10 VOLUME + DIST
Volume + Dist sets the level of the sample. The default setting is 60. Higher settings than 60 gradually
increase the volume and distortion. (0–127)
9.2.11 SWING
Adjust the swing setting of the track, to employ a propulsive, rhythmic groove. The default setting is equal
spacing, 50%. If is set to anything else than OFF, then the SWING parameter on all tracks SWING ALL
controls the SWING ALL parameter value. For more information, please see “8.12.5 SWING ALL” on page
30. (50%– 80%)
9.2.12 CHANCE
Track Chance sets the probability that the trigs on the track plays or not. The probability outcome is
re-evaluated every time a trig is set to play. The default setting is 100%, meaning that all the trigs on the
track plays every time. (0%–100%)
If you have placed a conditional lock on a trig in the sequencer, the trig condition overrides
the CHANCE setting. For example, if you set CHANCE to 70% and a FILL trig condition on
the trig, the trig will only (and always) play when the Model:Samples is in FILL mode. For
more information, please see “8.12.4 FILL MODE” on page 30.
9.3 WAVE
Press [WAVE] to open the SAMPLE ASSIGN menu. Here you can browse the list of the samples in the
+Drive and assign them to the tracks. Use the LEVEL/DATA knob to navigate to the sample you want to
assign.
Turn the knob counter-clockwise to scroll up the list, clockwise to scroll down the list. Press the [TRIG] key
of the active track while browsing to listen to the sample currently highlighted. For more information, please
see “12.3 ASSIGNING A SAMPLE TO A TRACK” on page 45.
The WAVE parameter cannot be parameter locked.
9.4 LOOP
Press [LOOP] to loop the sample of the active track. The key toggles the play mode on and o.[LOOP]
• OFF The sample plays only once per trig. (Key unlit)
9. TRACK RELATED PARAMETERS
35
• ON When trigged, the sample loops continuously between the positions in the sample defined by the
SAMPLE START SAMPLE LENGTH and parameters. The setting decides the duration of the DECAY
loop. (Key lit red)
The LOOP parameter can be parameter locked. In GRID RECORDING mode, press and
hold a [TRIG] key, and then press [LOOP]. For more information, please see “8.12.1 PA-
RAMETER LOCKS” on page 27
9.5 REVERSE
Press [REVERSE] to reverse the playback direction of the sample of the active track. The [REVERSE]
key toggles between the two play modes.
• FORWARD The sample plays back normally once every time it is trigged. (Key unlit)
• REVERSE The sample plays back in reverse once every time it is trigged. (Key lit red)
The REVERSE parameter can be parameter locked. In GRID RECORDING mode, press
and hold a [TRIG] key, and then press [REVERSE]. For more information, please see “8.12.1
PARAMETER LOCKS” on page 27.
9.6 LFO MENU
The Low-Frequency Oscillator can be used to modulate the track parameters. Set the low-frequency oscil-
lator shape, speed multiplication, destination and depth on this page. Use the LEVEL/DATA knob to navi-
gate the menu and change the parameter settings.
The LFO SPEED parameter sets the speed of the LFO. For more information, please see “9.2.9 LFO
SPEED” on page 34.
Press [LFO] to access the LFO menu.
9.6.1 WAV
Waveform sets the LFO waveform. There are seven waveforms: Triangle, Sine, Square, Sawtooth, Enve-
lope, Ramp, and Random.
The Envelope (ENV) waveform makes the LFO behave dierently. If you select ENV, the
LFO starts from the beginning of its cycle every time a note is trigged (The RST parame-
ters setting is ignored), run for one cycle and then stop (one-shot). This makes it very use-
ful as an envelope. The waveform is similar to a sawtooth but with an exponential decay.
The LFO SPEED and MUL sets the length of the decay.
The ENV waveform can also be used when you want to have a sound with slower attack:
Make sure [GATE] is on and Fixed velocity (FIX) is OFF. In the LFO menu set WAV: ENV,
MUL: x1, DST: DIST, and DEP: -64.
The LFO SPEED and MUL parameters now set the length of the attack.
9.6.2 MUL
Multiplier multiplies the SPD parameter by the set factor either by multiplying the current tempo (these
settings have an “X” prefix before the multiplier numbers), or by multiplying a fixed tempo of 120 BPM
(basically letting the LFO run free and disregard the current tempo of the device).
9.6.3 DST
Destination selects the modulation destination for the LFO. Preview how the LFO modulation aects
the sound by highlighting a destination. For more information, please see “APPENDIX B: MODULATION
DESTINATIONS” on page 54.
9.6.4 DEP
Depth sets the depth and polarity of the LFO modulation. Both negative (inverted) and positive modula-
tion depth is possible. A center setting, 0, equals no modulation depth. (-64.0–63.0)
9. TRACK RELATED PARAMETERS
36
• Press and hold [LFO] and then turn a TRACK PARAMETER knob to set that knobs pa-
rameter as an LFO modulation destination. Keep turning the TRACK PARAMETER knob

the LEVEL/DATA knob to navigate and change the parameter settings.
Press + [FUNC] [LFO] to access the LFO SETUP menu.
9.7.1 RST
Reset sets if the LFO should restart its phase every time a note is trigged.
• OFF is the default free-running mode. It makes the LFO run continuously, never restarting or
stopping even if notes are trigged.
• ON makes the LFO restart when a note is trigged.
9.7.2 FDE
Fade In/Out makes it possible to fade in/fade out the LFO modulation. The parameter is bipolar. Positive
values give a fade-out, negative values give a fade in. 0 gives no fade in/fade out. (-64–63)
9.7.3 SPH
Start Phase sets the point within the wave cycle where the LFO starts when it is trigged. 0 makes the
LFO start at the beginning of a complete wave cycle, 64 makes it start at the center. (0–127)
The parameters in the LFO SETUP menu cannot be parameter locked.
10. FX PARAMETERS

10. FX PARAMETERS
In this chapter we will have a look at the Model:Samples eect parameters.
10.1 REVERB
The Reverb send eect controls the persistence, and ambient characteristics, of the sound reverberations.
It can simulate many dierent sonic locations, from huge spaces to small rooms.
10.1.1 REVERB SIZE
Sets the length of the decay time of the reverberated signal, essentially setting the size of the acoustic
space. (1–127, INF)
10.1.2 REV TONE
Reverb Tone changes the tone of the reverb by dampening either the low frequencies or the high fre-
quencies of the reverberated signal. The parameter is bipolar. Positive values dampen the low frequen-
cies. Negative values dampen the high frequencies. (-64–63)
10.2 DELAY
The Delay send eect takes the input signal, delays it in time and then blends it with the original signal.
10.2.1 DELAY TIME

redirected to the SYSEX TRANSFER mode. If so, jump to step 4 in the procedure below. The SYSEX
TRANSFER mode is also used when you upgrade your OS from the STARTUP menu. For more informa-
tion, please see “13.4 OS UPGRADE” on page 49.
1. Connect the Elektron device to the computer via USB (can not be used when you upgrade from the
STARTUP menu) or MIDI and switch it on.
2. Open the Transfer application on your computer.
3. On the Transfer CONNECTION page, click “go to the SYSEX TRANSFER page””
4. On the SYSEX TRANSFER page, click “OS Upgrade via device startup menu”, and then follow the
on-screen instructions.
5. On your device, navigate to CONFIG > UPGRADE, and then press ”YES” to initiate the OS update.
6. In Transfer, press “SEND”.
When the process is successfully completed, the OS is updated and the unit reboots.
11.7 BATTERY
Here you can set the type of battery used and congure the Auto power o functionality. For more informa-
tion, please see “3.5 POWER HANDLE” on page 13.
11.7.1 BAT TYPE
Here you select which type of battery (alkaline or nickel-metal hydride) you are using in the Power
Handle accessory. The setting is important for the battery indicator icon to display the remaining battery
power more accurately. (ALK, NiHM)
11.7.2 AUTO OFF
To prevent unnecessary power consumption, the Auto power o functionality automatically turns the
power o if the device is not operated for the specied amount of time. (OFF, 5m, 10m, 20m)
• The device automatically saves the device’s current state before it turns itself o using
the Auto power o functionality or when the battery power is depleted. However it is
always recommended that you save your work and power o using MAIN VOLUME to
ensure that no unsaved edits are lost.
• When the batteries are close to being depleted, the LCD/LED brightness settings will
switch to MID, and the device will shortly after that power down.
11. CONFIG MENU

11.8 DEVICE
Use this menu to set various device related settings.
11.8.1 USB MODE
Selects which functionality Model:Samples has over USB.
A+M Model:Samples functions both as a sound card and as a MIDI interface.
MID Model:Samples functions as a MIDI interface.
11.8.2 LCD
Sets the brightness of the LCD screen. (LOW, MID, MAX)
11.8.3 LED
Sets the brightness of the LED lights and buttons. (LOW, MID, MAX)
• The brighter the LCD and LED settings, the quicker the batteries will be depleted when
using the Power Handle.
• The brightness settings for the LCD and the LED have separate power schemes when
you use the power supply and when you use the Power Handle. The device automatical-
ly switches between these schemes depending on your chosen power source.
11.8.4 CONTRAST
Sets the screen contrast. (1–9)
12. SAMPLES
45
12. SAMPLES
12.1 ABOUT SAMPLES
A sample is a 16 bit, 48 kHz, mono audio file.
Each of the six tracks in a pattern can contain one sample. A sample that is imported from the +Drive to a
pattern becomes part of the active pattern. Any parameter changes applied to a sample will therefore not
aect the stored sample. It only aects the sample in the active pattern.
A sample used in a pattern can be renamed or moved and still function as intended. This is due to a hash
function that adds a file specific value to every file, and this value is independent of the file name or the file’s
location in the data structure. However, if you delete a sample, it is not included in any patterns anymore.
If you delete a sample from the +Drive, it will not be included in any projects or patterns
anymore.
12.2 THE +DRIVE SAMPLE LIBRARY
The +Drive sample library is where all the samples are stored and can hold up to 1 GB of samples. You can
have up to 576 samples (6 banks × 16 patterns × 6 tracks) - with a maximum combined size of 64 MB (about
11 minutes) - in the RAM of every project. A sample that is used on several tracks does not take up addition-
al space in the RAM.
12.3 ASSIGNING A SAMPLE TO A TRACK
You can assign any of the samples in the +Drive to any of the audio tracks.
1. Press [TRACK] [T1–6]+ to select a track.
2. Press [WAVE] to open the SAMPLE ASSIGN menu.
3. Use the LEVEL/DATA knob to navigate the folder structure to the sample you want to assign. Press
[BACK]
to navigate up one level in the folder hierarchy if needed. Press the pad of the active track
while browsing to listen to the sample currently highlighted. When not in GRID RECORDING mode, you
can also press the keys to preview the sample chromatically. To preview a sample in a playing [TRIG]
pattern context, press and hold the pad of the active track. The sequencer then plays the highlighted
sample.
4. Press the pad of the active track while browsing to listen to the sample currently highlighted. When
not in GRID RECORDING mode, you can also preview the sample chromatically by pressing the
[TRIG] keys. To preview a sample in a playing pattern context, press and hold the pad of the active
track. While the pad is held, the sequencer will play the highlighted sample
5. Press LEVEL/DATA to select a sample. Press [BACK] to exit the list without selecting a sample.
You can now play the sample either by the sequencer or manually by pressing a or[TRIG] [T1–6] key.
12. SAMPLES
46
You can also load up to six samples at the same time.
In the SAMPLE ASSIGN menu, highlight a folder and then press and hold LEVEL/DATA for a
second. A popup appears that reads “LOAD WHOLE DIR” Press “YES” to load up to six sam-
ples from that folder to Model:Samples six tracks.
It checks all files in the directory for a sux of 1-6 and loads the files matching this criteria
to the respective track. If no matching file is found for a track, it fills the blank tracks with
the first other not-yet-loaded samples in the folder. So if you have the samples BD01, SD03,
MYSAMPLE999, CHORDY and HIHAT6 in a directory, it would load T1=BD01, T2=CHORDY,
T3=SD03, T4=MYSAMPLE999 and T6=HIHAT6. T5 will be blank (if it did not previously con-
tain a sample).
12.4 DELETING SAMPLES FROM THE +DRIVE LIBRARY
You can delete samples from the +Drive from within the Model:Samples.
1. Press [WAVE]
to open the SAMPLE ASSIGN menu.
2. Use the LEVEL/DATA knob to navigate the folder and the sample you want to remove. You can also
remove a folder if it does not contain any samples.
3. Press + [FUNC] LEVEL/DATA to initiate the delete process
4. Press “ and then press YES” LEVEL/DATA to delete the sample.
If you load and unload many samples in a project, the RAM can become fragmented and
might need to be defragmented to free up memory space. This defragmentation is done by
reloading all the samples in the project. If you try to assign a sample to a track and you see a
popup that reads “RELOAD ALL SAMPLES TO CONTINUE?”, it means that the sample fits in
the RAM but to achieve this, you need to reload of the samples to free up memory.
If you press CONTINUE a second popup appears that reads: “PLAYBACK WILL BE
STOPPED”.
Press CONTINUE again and the sequencer playback stops while the samples reload and the
new sample is assigned to the track. Press CANCEL to abort assigning the sample to
the track.
12.5 RAM FOLDER
At the bottom of the root the SAMPLE ASSIGN menu there is a folder called RAM. This folder shows a list
of all the samples currently loaded into the RAM memory. The samples are not actually located in the RAM
