The Arpeggiator (ARP) Page
Velocity Modes MissNotes1 through MissNotes9 makes the K2700 randomly miss playing
a percentage of inputted notes. See the table below for percentages and their equivalent
settings. Each of these settings also randomly changes some of the inputted velocities in a
range of ± 5, with the purpose of simulating a more human played sound.
Note: Missed Notes are actually output as notes with a velocity of zero.
Velocity Patt
When Velocity is set to Pattern, the Velocity Patt parameter appears, which allows you to
select a step sequence for arpeggiator velocity patterns. A Velocity Pattern shifts the velocity
of each arpeggiated note according to a sequenced pattern. Select a factory pattern, or create
a custom user pattern using the pattern editor (see below for details).
Velocity Patterns use the velocity received from the first note played as the center position
to shift velocities up or down from. Velocity Pattern steps are played back at the rate set for
Beats. Rhythms can be created by using velocity values of -127 or "none" to leave rests in the
arpeggiation.
If no other keys are playing, patterns will start over each time a key is pressed (there are some
exceptions to this when using ARP 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 ARP page.
