Play Order

Determines the order in which the arpeggiator plays latched notes. There are eight possible
values:
Played
Latched notes get played in the chronological order in which you latched them.
Up
Latched notes play in ascending pitch order, regardless of their chronological order.
Down
Latched notes play in descending pitch order, regardless of their chronological order.
Up/Down
Latched notes play from lowest pitch to highest, then from highest pitch to lowest, repeating the
cycle until you stop the arpeggiation. The notes at the very top and very bottom play only once.
Up/Dwn Rp
Similar to Up/Down, except that the notes at the top and bottom play twice (repeat) when the
arpeggiator reverses direction.
Random
Latched notes play in completely random order.
Shuffle
Latched notes play at random, but no note repeats until all other latched notes have played.
Walk
A "random walk" order: each successive note is either the next or previous note (in chronological
order of latching). For example, suppose you've latched four notes--G 4, B 4, D 5, and F 5--in that
order. The first note the arpeggiator plays is the G 4. The second note will be either B 4 (the next
note chronologically), or F 5 (the "previous" note chronologically--that is, the last latched note). If
the second note is B 4, the third note will be either D 5 or G 4. If the second note is F 5, the third
note will be either G 4 or D 5. And so on.

Beats

Sets the number of repetitions for each count of the internal clock. This parameter provides an
easy way to change arpeggio tempo in regular intervals. There are seven possible values:
4th notes
8th notes
8th trips
16th notes
16th trips
32nd notes
32nd trips
5-18
One note per clock beat
Two notes per beat
Three notes per beat
Four notes per beat
Six notes per beat
Eight notes per beat
Twelve notes per beat
