The pad is purple which indicates that the sequence is not playing. Similar to how we navigate the cursor in the Pad Editor we can move the cursor in ZynPad with the BACK and ENTER encoders. Move the cursor to the top left to highlight pad A1 (it is probably already there) then short press ENTER encoder to start playback of sequence A1. This can also be achieved with a touchscreen by simply pressing pad A1.

Tempo may be adjusted using the SNAPSHOT encoder or by selecting "Tempo" from the context menu (if touchscreen widgets enabled).

The pad changes to red to indicate it is stopping and then to purple to indicate it has stopped. We have not yet added any MIDI events to the pattern so nothing happens with any synth engines you may have loaded. Let's fix that.
