The template is a combination of MIDI drum loops and one shots. Each bank contains three stages of beat, which typically vary from primary and alternate, to build/fill. There is also a stop beat button on each bank. Above the bottom row of beat control are three independent percussion/rhythm MIDI loops which can also be used to enhance or strip your mix. Each bank also contains a build button, which is responsive to motion control, and can be used to create epic builds on the fly. The one shots are both samples and synth patches. Most of them are responsive to the 3D's motion. If you tilt the 3D to the left, it will activate a beat repeat, and tilting forward applies a master low pass filter to the mix.
