Arpeggiator; Note Repeat - Akai Advance 61 User Manual

Arpeggiator

Advance 61's Arpeggiator separates chords whose rate is based on the current tempo and time division
settings. The Arpeggiator will function on notes being played on the keyboard only. You can sync the
Arpeggiator to an internal or external MIDI clock source.
To edit the Arpeggiator's parameters, press and hold Shift and then press Arp. The Arpeggiator's
parameters will appear in the display.
Type This is the type of arpeggio a played chord will produce when the Arpeggiator is on.
There are over 100 unique arpeggios to choose from.
Range This is the total range of the arpeggio in octaves. The available range is 0–3. The
direction depends on the Type.
Swing This is the amount of swing used in the notes of the arpeggio. The available range is
50%–75%.
Time Div This is the Arpeggiator's speed shown as a division of the master tempo or external
clock. The available options are 1/4, 1/4T, 1/8, 1/8T, 1/16, 1/16T, 1/32, and 1/32T.
(T denotes a triplet-based time division.)
Tip: Alternatively, press Time Div so it is lit, and then press one of the 8 switches to
select the time division shown underneath each of them.
Note Len This is the length of the arpeggiated notes. The available range is 1%–50% of the
current time division setting. (Depending on the currently loaded patch/patches,
adjustments to this setting may not have an obvious effect.)
