46 ARTURIA – KeyStep – USER’S MANUAL
10.2 Device Projects
10.2.1 The Working Project
When the MCC and KeyStep are in sync, the Working Project is the internal memory of
the KeyStep. Edits made to sequences inside the MCC are made simultaneously to the
KeyStep.
When they are not in sync the Working Project functions as a sort of ‘target’ onto which
Templates or sequences can be dragged and then transmitted to the KeyStep memory.
But edits made to sequences inside the MCC when not in sync do not edit the sequences
inside the KeyStep.
10.2.1.1 Live editing
After you click the Sync button the internal KeyStep memory is shown inside the MCC in
the Seq Editor window. Any edits you make to these sequences will also be made in the
KeyStep. This is called “live editing.”
Important: When you make a change in the Seq Editor window an asterisk (*) will
appear next to the name of the selected Template. These changes are not automatically
saved, so you will need to use the Save or Save As… buttons to preserve your new
sequence data.
10.2.1.2 Drag and drop
It’s possible to drag a single sequence or a Template from the Project Browser onto the
Working Project. When you do, the sequence(s) will be sent to the KeyStep internal
memory. See section 10.3 for information about this.
Live editing works in one direction: from the MCC to KeyStep. Changes made from
the KeyStep front panel are not detected by the MCC. Use the Recall From button to
back them up to your computer before selecting another Template.
