Abstract:
A method of operating a UI for controlling a virtual musical instrument implemented on a display can include receiving an input corresponding to a selection of one of a plurality of dynamic navigation objects configured on the display, the display including a cell matrix including one or more arrays of cells configured as a step-sequencer. The method can further include displaying a first portion of the cell matrix in response to a first dynamic object being selected, such that the first portion of the cell matrix is visible and the second portion of the cell matrix is not visible in the predefined area, and displaying a second portion of the cell matrix in response to a second dynamic object being selected, such that the second portion of the cell matrix is visible and the first portion of the cell matrix is not visible in the predefined area.

Claim (Index 1):
A UI for controlling a virtual musical instrument implemented on a display, the UI comprising:\n a step sequencer having a matrix of user-selectable cells displayed in a predefined area, the matrix including: at least one row of user-selectable cells,\n each row of the matrix corresponding to an audio sample stored in a computer-readable medium and the cells within each array of the matrix being configured in a sequential arrangement, \n each cell, in response to being selected for playback and upon being triggered to begin the playback, causes the audio sample data of its corresponding array to output audio corresponding to its corresponding audio sample data, \n a playback control that, in response to receiving a playback input, causes a real-time playback of the corresponding audio sample data for each selected cell by triggering the playback in an order defined by a tempo and the sequential arrangement of the cells, a plurality of dynamic navigation objects including a first miniaturized representation of a first portion of the matrix of user-selectable cells and a second miniaturized representation of a second portion of the matrix of user selectable cells, wherein the step sequencer is configured to display the first portion of the matrix, such that it fills the predefined area and the second portion of the matrix is not visible, in response to the first miniaturized representation being selected, and wherein the step sequencer is configured to display the second portion of the matrix, such that it fills the predefined area and the first portion of the matrix is not visible, in response to the second miniaturized representation being selected.
