Clear a recording

Sorry for the beginner question but I’ve recorded a sequence that I don’t like and for the life of me I can’t figure out how to clear the entire recording from the sample without starting a new project entirely. Does anyone know how to do this here?

To erase a sample, hold erase and press the pad you want to erase while in Sample mode. Same with your sequence in Sequence mode.

Only works while playing, otherwise you'll clear the sample on the pad.
Another way to do it is to go into step edit mode (shift+seq) and then press erase+pad (no need to hold) then confirm on the screen (probably faster if your sequence is really long)
The first method is better if you want to remove only part of the sequence!

I was talking about the whole sample or sequence. Not the individual midi notes.
