The Arpeggiator Function
With Velocity set to MIDI 109, MIDI controller 109 continually sets the arpeggiator
velocity. This works well when MIDI controller 109 is set to a knob or expression pedal.
With Velocity set to Fixed, all notes play with the same velocity. The default Fixed velocity
is 100. Like MIDI 109, You can control this velocity amount in real-time by assigning
a controller to VelFixed, controller destination number is 175. Input from any physical
controller assigned to send VelFixed (or any entry value for a controller assigned to send
VelFixed) overrides the programmed value of the Velocity parameter, disabling it until you
select a different Multi (or in Program mode, until you select a different control setup on the
MIDI-mode TRANSMIT page).
Velocity Pat
The Pattern option engages a step sequencer for arpeggiator velocity patterns, which shifts
the velocity of each arpeggiated note according to a sequenced pattern. There are
programed velocity patterns to choose from, some of which create rhythms by using velocity
values of -127 or "none" to leave rests in the arpeggiation. The sequencer uses the velocity
received from the first note played as the center position to shift velocities up or down from.
If no other keys are playing, patterns will start over each time a key is pressed (there are some
exceptions to this when using ARP1 Latch parameters other than "Keys," though a newly triggered
pattern will always start at step 1.) When triggering velocity patterns from more than one key
at a time, each consecutive step of the pattern shifts the velocity from a different inputted
key, the order of which is decided by the Play Order parameter on the ARP1 page.
Note: For patterns with negative velocity values, if the velocity of the first played note is
low enough that a pattern step could result in a velocity of zero, some notes may have a
velocity of zero and therefore produce no sound.
