• • CHORD -The notes are played together for each step of the ARPEGGIATOR.
ARPEGGIATOR MODE - CHORD
The default mode of the ARPEGGIATOR is UP.
HOLD - This option is the same as the HOLD switch on the surface when the
ARPEGGIATOR is switched on. The switch will follow any changes made here, and
changes on the surface will be refl ected here. The default HOLD mode is OFF.
CLOCK DIVIDER - This option allows you divide the Master BPM in a number of
ways to produce the ARPEGGIATOR CLOCK.
Note: When the SUSTAIN input is set to any of the GATE modes in the PEDAL
SETTINGS the value will be replaced by "(Gate)" to indicate that the CLOCK
DIVIDER is not used and the ARPEGGIATOR notes are controlled by the GATE input.
You can select one of the division modes from the list below:
Note: For a timing diagram please consult the section later in this document.

RATIO DESCRIPTION

1/2 Half note
3/8 Dotted quarter note
1/3 Third note (Half note triplets)
1/4 Quarter note
3/16 Dotted eighth note
1/6 Sixth note(Quarter note triplets)
1/8 Eighth note
3/32 Dotted sixteenth note
1/12 Twelfth note (Eighth note triplets)
1/16 Sixteenth note
1/24 Twenty-fourth note (Sixteenth note triplets)
1/32 Thirty-second note
1/48 Forty-eighth note (Thirty-second note triplets)
The default value is 1/16 (sixteenth note).
RATE(BPM) - This option is the same as the RATE fader on the surface. Any
changes on the surface will be refl ected here.
The Master BPM RATE range is from 20.0 to 275.0 BPM. The default RATE value is
120.0 BPM.
Note: When the SUSTAIN input is set to any of the GATE modes in the PEDAL
SETTINGS the value will be replaced by "(Gate)" to indicate that the RATE is not
used and the ARPEGGIATOR notes are controlled by the GATE input.
SWING - This option allows you to adjust the swing (or groove) of the
ARPEGGIATOR.
When applying SWING, every other step is delayed by an amount set by the
swing value. The swing value represents the ratio of time between two steps. I.e.
When the swing is at 50% there will be equal timing between the steps. When
wanting to adjust the SWING timing to fall where a triplet would, you should set
the SWING to 66%.
You can use the SWING parameter to add timing element which can help create
propulsive rhythms, or laid back styles which can help give the sequence of notes
movement, or allow it to breath, or make room for other parts of the mix.
SWING SETTING
NO SWING (50%)
TRIPLET SWING (66%)
FULL SWING (75%)
The SWING RATE range is from 50 to 75. The default SWING value is 50.
Note: When the SUSTAIN input is set to any of the GATE modes in the PEDAL
SETTINGS the value will be replaced by "(Gate)" to indicate that the SWING is not
used and the ARPEGGIATOR notes are controlled by the GATE input.
PATTERN - The ARPEGGIATOR has a looping PATTERN function which can
dynamically control the VELOCITY and GATE TIME values for each step.
When the ARPEGGIATOR starts playing and a PATTERN is selected, the VELOCITY
and GATE TIME values from the PATTERN editor will be applied to the notes of
the ARPEGGIATOR. The PATTERN will continue to cycle while the ARPEGGIATOR is
playing.
You can set the PATTERN LENGTH to match the ARPEGGIATOR notes, or use a
diff erent PATTERN LENGTH to create variations and movement. E.g. When using
DOWN-INV 6 notes are played during each cycle of the ARPEGGIATOR. With a
PATTERN LENGTH setting of 4, you will hear the pattern moving through the
ARPEGGIATOR cycle.
The pattern editor has 32 fi xed "Preset Patterns" allowing you to start using the
patterns quickly and 32 "User Patterns" so that you can store your own unique
patterns. The patterns can be up to 32 steps long allowing a large range of
creative possibilities.
