The Arpeggiator Function
The Step Seq specifies four fixed parameters: for each step Note, Velocity, Duration and
Beat. Use the navigation buttons to move between pattern steps, use the Alpha Wheel,
alphanumeric pad, or plus/minus buttons to enter the parameter values for each step.
Note values create the shift pattern for the Step sequence. Notes are specified in half-steps
from the last latched note (represented as 0). Thus, this series of notes: 0, 4, 7 will play a
triad in sequence. Note values can range from -128 to +127, with negative numbers shifting
below the latched note.
Velocity values shift each steps velocity up or down from the last latched note played or
received. Values range from -127 to +127 (with 0 representing the origin value).
Duration is specified in cents, from 0-100, as a percentage of the specified Beat.
Beats sets the pattern rhythm, using fractions of the Beat rate set by the Tempo parameter. A
Beat to 1/4 will be a quarter note based on the clock Tempo.
To find a Beats value, multiply the notes you want per beat by 4. For example, 4 notes per
beat (16th notes) would be 4*4=16, a Beats value of 1/16. Three notes per beat (8th note
triplets) would be 3*4=12, a Beats value of 1/12. Six notes per beat (16th note triplets)
would be 6*4=24, a Beats value of 1/24.
ArpSave
If you have adjusted any Arpeggiator settings, you have the option of saving a new Arp Preset
to a User location, where it will be available to use with other Programs and Multis. The Arp
Preset is saved independently from the Program itself.
Press ArpSave to initiate a save. You will have the option to select the location and name for
your Arp Preset, using the Alpha Wheel or alphanumeric buttons.
When you hit Exit to leave the Program editor, you will be given the option to save a new
User Program with any changes you have made. See Save User Programs below for details.
