Before starting to program a pattern it is a good idea to reset the analog synth voice to the default settings
to ensure sound will be heard when a pattern is played.
The analog voice of the Avalon is backwards compatible with the Roland® TB-303. The additional features
can be viewed as a layer on top of the original TB-303 which greatly expand the capabilities without being
cumbersome or overwhelming. Together with the external filter cartridges from the Synth Cartridge
System™ the Avalon is an extremely flexible mono synth with capabilities far beyond the TB-303 subset of
sound and performance.
The analog controls are laid out in a straightforward manner. For specific details please refer to the
reference manual.

pattern is a sequence of pitch and time events, or steps.
4.2.1 THE PATTERN STEP
As is the case with traditional step sequencers, the PATTERN STEP is the fundamental parameter of a
pattern, representing a musical event, such as a 1/16th note. Pattern steps relate directly to the (16) STEP
BUTTONS indicators on the control surface. These buttons are a linear time representation of the pattern:
