DESCRIPTION
TRIG
Continued
RETRIG
OFF, ON
Turns re-triggering on or off. When off, the
trig source acts as a one-shot trigger. When
on, the trigger acts repeatedly, restarting the
sequence from the beginning.
ENABLE
OFF, ON
Turns the trigger on or off.
TRGVOX
Determines which voice triggers the
sequencer.
FIRST
The first voice to play will trigger the
sequencer.
OLDEST
The oldest voice playing will trigger the
sequencer.
NEWEST
The newest voice playing will trigger the
sequencer.
MODE
This parameter determines how voices are
played once a trigger or multiple triggers
occur.
NORMAL
One trigger plays the sequence according to
the
CONFIG
page settings.
STAGE
Requires multiple triggers: each Step (“stage”)
in the sequence plays in order if each new
trigger has a different level
.
ADVANC
Requires multiple triggers: each Step plays in
order with each new trigger.
RANDOM
Requires multiple triggers: each Step plays at
random with each new trigger.
PROGRS Parameters
The Progressor allows for automatic transposing of the sequence within the limits set
by the
MIN
and
MAX
parameters. Although the
PRGRSR
is the first parameter on the
screen, you should set the
MIN
and
MAX
limits first, then adjust the
PRGRSR
value.
Using
0
as the base note (the key that’s being played) value, the
MIN
value sets the low
end of the note range where transposing takes place. Conversely,
MAX
sets the upper
limit of the note range where transposing takes place. Although both of these
parameters have a
-127
to
+127
range, the most useful limits will be within a few
octaves (
-24
to
+24
settings).
The
PRGRSR
value determines the transpose amount. A setting of
1
means that the
sequence will transpose up one semitone starting at the
MIN
note with each
repetition of the sequence until the
MAX
note limit is reached. A
PRGRSR
setting of
-1
means that the sequence will start playing at the
MAX
key and transpose down one
semitone
with each repetition until the
MIN
note limit is reached.
