ARPEGGIATOR Section
An arpeggiator automatically steps through a sequence of notes based on an input chord,
thus creating an arpeggio. The arpeggiator in RETRO MACHINES MK2 is a modern re-in-
terpretation of the arpeggiators found in the original machines. You can choose 16 steps
or 12-step triplet mode, and define the velocity of each individual step. More creatively,
you can assign a different position of the Sound Variation's MORPH slider to each step in
the pattern — a smart trick for dynamic, expressive arpeggios.
