The Arpeggiator
Arpeggiator parameters
Auto1 - The Þrst notes you play resync the clock. As long as one
key is held, up to 16 notes can be arpeggiated. When you release
all keys the arpeggiation stops. The next key played will then
resync the clock. Ctlr#49 has no effect on Auto1.
Auto2 - is the same as Auto1 except the clock is never resynced.
Auto3 - The clock is never resynced in this mode. Any keys
played are arpeggiated and continue to arpeggiate even when
keys are released. Look mom no hands. Those keys will sound
until the next note, or group of notes up to 16, are played. Once
the new group is played, they begin to arpeggiate. Ctlr#49 must
be turned Off to stop the arpeggiation.
Auto4 - Same as Auto3 except the clock is resynced when a note
is played. Ctlr#49 stops the arpeggiation.
Toggle - When you strike a note it arpeggiates even if the key is
not being held. To stop the arpeggiation play the same note
again. Each note is its own on/off switch to the arpeggiator. You
can arpeggiate up to 16 notes. Ctrl#49 will resync the clock. If a
Latch controller is connected and assigned, turning it off will also
stop notes that have been toggled on.
KeyXp1 - KeyXp means Key Transpose. If you play a chord and
turn on Ctlr #49, the intervals between the notes are remembered
by the arpeggiator. The Þrst key you played becomes the root;
when you play a different note, the Arpeggiator will transpose
the intervals to the new root.
For example, play a C major chord making sure you play the C
Þrst; keep in mind you wonÕt hear anything. Turn on Ctlr #49 as
you hold the C E and G and you will hear the arpeggiation. Now
release the keys and keep Ctlr#49 on. Play a G note a fourth
below the C. The ExpressionMate will begin arpeggiating G B D
and stop when the key G is released. To enter a new set of notes,
turn off Ctlr#49 and play a new chord and turn Ctlr#49 on again.
KeyXP2 - The clock is never resynced and the notes arpeggiate
like Auto3. Turn off latch to stop arpeggiation.
KeyXP3 - Like KeyXP1 but the clock is resynced like Keys1.
KeyXp4 - Like KeyXP2 but the clock is resynced like Keys1.
