+==== Conventions ====
+from an AB forum [[https://forum.audiob.us/discussion/comment/926226/#Comment_926226 |post]].
+A couple of naming conventions in the world of Atomics, that hopefully helps people moving forward until all the videos and documentation are released
+**//Organisation//**
+**Clip**
+A Clip is an instance of Piano Roll 2 itself, so every new instance loaded is a new clip, Piano Roll will auto name these accordingly.
+**Track**
+A track is a column of pads on a connected and supported pad controller.
+Tracks are exclusive, if a slot is launched (See below) while another is already playing on that track, it will be unlaunched.
+**Scene**
+A scene is a row of pads on a connected and supported controller.
+Scenes are kind of the opposite to tracks in terms of exclusivity, the row of pads on a supported controller will generally have a scene button, this will launch every slot in that scene at the same time.
+**Slot**
+A slot is a pad on a connected and supported controller.
+Slots are grouped in to tracks and scenes (See above)
+**//Playback//**
+**Launching**
+Launching is the act of launching a clip, launching may not be immediate, because it is not playback, it is defined by launch settings. Example, if launch settings have a trigger beat of 4 beats, playback will start 4 beats AFTER you launch the slot.
+**Unlaunching**
+Unlaunching is the act of unlaunching a clip, again unlaunching may not be immediate because it is not stop playback, it is also defined by launch settings. Example, if launch settings have a release beat of 4 beats, playback will stop 4 beats AFTER you unlaunch the slot.
+**Play**
+We all know this, this is when the pattern in the clip is playing, after being launched.
+**Stop**
+Again, we all know this, so I will erm, stop.
+==== Launch Mode Presets ====
+(extract from the upcoming manual, posted by tk32)
+**Ableton**
+Emulates Ableton Live-style clip launching. This means the clip starts whe receiving a matching note on, and re-launches from the beginning if it receives a repeat note on. The trigger and release beats are both set to 4 which means that clips will sync-start and sync-stop in sync with each bar (4 beats).
+**Launchpad Style**
+(Synced) Emulates behavior of the Launchpad iOS App. This means clips start with the first note on, and then stop with the second note on. You can think of this as a ‘toggle mode’.
+**Hold**
+(Un-synced) Clip begins playing whilst note on is held, and then unlaunches/stops when the note is released. Trigger beat and trigger release values are set to 0, which means this clip launches immediately when pressed. Stop on host scrub is also enabled to make this mode more compatible with linear DAWs like BeatMaker3.
+**One shot**
+(Un-synced) Enables one-shot launching. Starts with note on, and doesn’t stop until it reaches the end marker. Pressing note on during playback jumps back to the start again. Trigger an release beats are set to 0 so that launching is instant.
+**On release**
+Creates a clip that launches on note off. Might sound useless, but enables some highly creative setups.
+**Pick up**
+Pick-up launching means that the pattern is permanently running in lock-sync with the host, but runs silently until it is launched. It is especially useful for patterns that you want to start mid-way though, such as a pattern that includes a lead-in/anacrusis.

 ===== Tips and Tricks =====
+==== Random Tips ====
+**Dark mode/light mode**: Atom respects the OS light mode / dark mode setting. If using Atom in AUM, switch the OS to dark mode and reopen AUM to update. To change the OS light/dark setting, slide from the top-right of your iPad screen to open up Control Center. Long press the brightness slider and tap the "Dark Mode" button. This will toggle your iPad between light/dark mode, and Atom will respect that.
+**Velocity Editing**: Bottom-right "process" button, pick "velocity". Processing is on all notes if there's no selection, or only on selected notes if there is one. You can also add "chaos" in the same panel.
+**Looping without cutting off notes**: If you have notes that extend beyond the loop boundaries, use "Loop With Legato" so that the notes aren't cut off when looping. Long press the launch button and enable "Loop with Legato".
