Display Envelope Trigger Selections
Sequencer or Key The envelopes will be triggered by either the
sequencer or the keyboard. When triggered by the
sequencer, the gates are on for half the step time.
Simply adjust the envelope parameters (ADSR) for the
desired effect.
Sequencer Only The envelopes will be triggered by only the sequencer.
Keyboard Only The envelopes will be triggered by the keyboard only.
Key, Resets Seq The envelopes will be triggered by the keyboard, and
the sequencer will be reset on every key (if it is
running). The sequencer will not trigger the envelopes.
Key, Gates Seq Gated mode – the envelopes will be triggered by the
sequencer when a key is held; in other words the
keyboard will gate the sequencer. AUTO
KeyGates Seq Rst Gated mode, reset – same as Gated mode, except
every time a key is hit, the sequencer is reset to step
1. AUTO
Ext Audio Input The envelopes are gated by the Left external audio
input signal level, in other words, when the signal gets
above a fixed threshold, the envelopes start. The
envelopes then go into the release phase when the
signal level drops below a second fixed threshold.
ExtIn, ResetsSeq Same as external in, but also resets the sequencer to
step 1 if it is running.
ExtIn, Gates Seq External In signal will gate the sequencer. AUTO
ExtIn GateSeqRst External In signal will gate the sequencer, and also
resets the sequencer to step 1 on each new gate.
AUTO
Key GatesSeqOnce Plays a sequence once (according to the length of
Sequence 1) when a key is hit. The sequence is not
restarted on multiple keys until it finishes and stops.
AUTO
Key GateSeqOnceR Also plays a sequence once when a key is hit, but will
re-start the sequence on each key hit. AUTO
Ext In Steps Seq Plays one step of the sequencer on each External
Input audio trigger. AUTO
Key Steps Seq Plays one step of the sequencer on each key hit.
AUTO
Transpose: -36…+36 – Transpose control for this Part; 0 is centered, steps in
semitones. Note that it is summed with the Global Transpose, and the overall limit of
the two controls is –36 to +36. For example, if the Combo is transposed down two
octaves (-24) and you then turn the Global transpose down two octaves, summing the
two would be –48, which is out of range. In this case, it automatically adds octaves to
keep it in range.
Fine Freq: -50…+50 – Fine Tune control for this Part; 0 centered, steps in cents (50
cents = ½ semitone). As with the Transpose, it is summed with the Global Fine Freq,
and the summed limit is –50 to +50.
