Tremolo + Arp Page
On the second page of the GUI, named “Tremolo + Arp”, you can generate note patterns with human
variations for a realistic performance. From left to right, the controls are:
Mode
Rate: sets the time interval between generated notes, synced to the host tempo from 1/64 to 1/4. When
Rate is turned fully clockwise, the Speed dial becomes active, and the time interval between notes can
be set freely.
Speed: sets the time interval between generated notes, from 50 to
1500 milliseconds, independent of the host tempo.
Speed is active only when Rate is fully clockwise, as shown opposite.
Tremolo + Arp Menu: activates either tremolo or an arpeggio pattern. Tremolo mode is monophonic,
requiring only one note to be held. Arpeggio mode is polyphonic, requiring at least two notes to be held.
This menu can also be controlled by keyswitches, where E1=Off, F1=Tremolo, and the keys between F#1
and A1 set different arpeggio patterns: F#1=Up, G1=Down, G#1=Up and Down, A1=Down and Up.
Additionally, the menu is controllable by Sustain Pedal (MIDI CC64), which when pressed activates the
most recently used tremolo/arp mode.
CC1 Accelerate/Decelerate: sets the effect of the modwheel (MIDI CC1) on the tremolo and arpeggio. In
“accel” mode, raising the modwheel increases the rate at which notes are generated. In “decel” mode,
raising the modwheel decreases the rate at which notes are generated.
This button is also controllable by keyswitch A#1 (accelerate) and B1 (decelerate).
