3.4 STEP FILTER

STEP FILTER allows you to memorize 8 positions (steps) of the FREQ pot
and to read these different steps one after the other. Many settings of Play
Mode, Speed and Number of steps are available. The STEP FILTER speed
depends on TAP TEMPO or MIDI BEAT CLOCK. A MIDI START message will
lock the first step to the beginning of the first bar.
The « TAP », « - / F1 », « + / F2 », « F3 » switches are used to set the STEP
FILTER parameters.
When the « - / F1 », « + / F2 » and « F3 » switches are off, the CLOCK pot
acts as usual (modification of the sampling frequency).

TAP : Tap this switch in rhythm to set the STEP FILTER speed. The switch
will flash in rhythm. If BISCUIT receives a MIDI BEAT CLOCK message, the
« TAP » switch will be inactive and the STEP FILTER speed will follow the
MIDI tempo (Unless you have deactivated the MIDI CLOCK RX function in
the MIDI menu. Cf Chap 5).
F1 : WRITE : When this switch lights up red, you can record any position of
the FREQ pot (Filter cutoff frequency) in one of the 8 steps. The CLOCK pot
allows you to choose one of the 8 steps (that lights up white). To record a
cutoff frequency value, you just have to move the FREQ pot to the desired
19
position. If you don't touch the FREQ pot, the previous value will not be
erased.

F2 : RUN : When this switch lights up red, you can choose one of the 3
play modes and select one of the 5 speeds.
Press the « TAP » switch to select one of the 3 play modes, indicated by
one of the 3 first switches lit up white.

1/ Forward : The steps play from left to right, looping back to step 1 when
the last step is reached (depending on the NUMBER parameter).
2/ Alternate : The steps play from left to right. When the last step is
reached (depending on the NUMBER parameter), the steps play in reverse,
from right to left.
3/ Random : The steps play at random.
Move the CLOCK pot to select one of the 5 speeds, indicated by one of the
last 5 switches lit up white.
