Arpeggio Capture - Sequentix P3 SEQUENCER Operation Manual

Arpeggio Capture

Arpeggio capture provides an alternative method of generating patterns using an arpeggiator function
similar to that featured on many synthesizers.
Unlike normal record, it is available only in pattern edit.
Notes received on the MIDI record channel are written into each pattern step in turn, regardless of
which step in the pattern is playing.
The position of the next step to be written is automatically incremented as each note is entered, and the
length of the pattern increased to include newly added steps.
For example, if you play a 4 note chord, each of the 4 notes will be written into 4 contiguous steps of
the pattern, and the length of the pattern will be increased to include these new steps.
Starting from step 1, this would give you a 4 note repeating arpeggio of the chord played.
You activate arpeggio capture as shown:
There is only a single page display, which looks like this:
Key Label Function
F1 clr Reset to a zero length pattern (last step 1, step 1 skipped)
F2 rong Toggle "reset on new group" option
F3 tie Copy and tie the most recent note to the following step
The number on the top line of the display, next to the letter "P" shows the step number that the next
note to arrive at the input will be written to.
