Dotted Rhythms
0: None (Instant) 3: 16th Dotted
1: 64th Dotted 4: 8th Dotted
2: 32nd Dotted 5: Quarter Dotted
Selects a value for the "Rhythm Value" parameter from
a subset of the entire range. The subset consists of the
dotted values along with 0: None and 8: Rhythm
Pattern. This is used to provide real-time control of the
"Rhythm Value" parameter while excluding certain of
the in-between values.
Triplet Rhythms
0: None (Instant) 3: 16th Triplet
1: 64th Triplet 4: 8th Triplet
2: 32nd Triplet 5: Quarter Triplet
Selects a setting for the "Rhythm Value" parameter
from a subset of the entire range. The subset consists of
the triplet values along with 0: None and 8: Rhythm
Pattern. This is used to provide real-time control of the
"Rhythm Value" parameter while excluding certain of
the in-between values.
Selected Rhythms
0: None (Instant) 5: 8th Dotted
1: 64th 6: Quarter
2: 32nd 7: Quarter Dotted
3: 16th 8: Half
4: 8th 9: Whole
Same as "Straight Rhythm Values," except adds the
two most musically useful dotted values also.

4: 32nd Triplet 11: Quarter
5: 32nd 12: Quarter Dotted
6: 16th Triplet 13: Half
Specially created for Drum GEs, providing the same
subset as Selected Rhythm Values (above), with the
addition of the most useful short note values.
Use Swing
0: Off 1: On
Sets whether the repeated notes will take on the swing
feel that is set in the Rhythm Group. If 0: Off, the
generated notes may be swung but the repeated notes
will not be. Note that triplet rhythm values are not
affected by swing.
When the Rhythm Group "Swing %" parameter
(☞p.904) is 0, this parameter has no effect.

[0...8] Time Offset (ms)
Allows a positive or negative millisecond offset to be
6: Half Dotted
applied to very short repeat times, making them
7: Whole Dotted
slightly shorter or longer. One use is to "tune" to a
8: Rhythm Pattern
certain key resonant delay effects created with short
repeat times.
[0...8]
6: Half Triplet
Repetitions
7: Whole Triplet
The maximum number of repeated notes to generate.
8: Rhythm Pattern
Note that due to other settings and circumstances, not
all of them may actually be generated. A setting of
101:
something else stops them.
Decay
The amount by which each successive repeated note
changes in velocity. Negative numbers cause the
[0...13]
delayed notes to decrease in volume (more common),
while positive numbers cause the delayed notes to
10: 2 Wholes
increase in volume. Interesting effects can be created
11: 3 Wholes
by a combination of a high negative "Initial Velocity"
(i.e. -120) and a small positive "Decay" (i.e. +4). Note
12: 4 Wholes
that this operates in conjunction with the Velocity
13: Rhythm Pattern
Pattern specified in the Velocity Group.
Initial Velocity
The velocity above or below the original note that the
first repeated note is generated at, after which the
[0...18]
"Decay" parameter is added to them with each
successive repetition. Note that this operates in
14: Whole
conjunction with the Velocity Pattern specified in the
15: 2 Wholes
Velocity Group.
16: 3 Wholes
Transpose
17: 4 Wholes
18: Rhythm Pattern
The amount by which each successive repeated note is
transposed in pitch. When one of the semitone values
is selected, the same value is used for each repeated
note. When the Pattern option is selected, the 25: Index
Pattern in the Index Group is used, so that each
[0, 1] repeated note can transpose a different amount from
the previous repeated note. Depending on the input
notes, anything other than 0 or multiples of 12 may
produce atonal results; these can be shifted to tonal
results using "Chord Shift," described below.
Chord Shift
When repeated notes are being transposed in pitch,
atonal results may occur depending on the
"Transpose" setting. When "Chord Shift" is 0: Off, no
change occurs in the transposition. Setting "Chord
Shift" to 1: Scalic or 2: Scalic2 causes chord recognition
Only operable when one of the first three settings of
the Rhythm menu are selected (None, 64th triplet,
or 64th). For example, you can use it to adjust a
short Rhythm setting, and then switch to a longer
setting via GE RT Parameter control, and the offset
will be ignored, allowing the longer rhythms to stay
in sync.
