MIDI Ch: 1…16, All Selects the MIDI channel to use for this Part. If All is
selected, it responds to any MIDI channel. If MIDI Mode is set to Off, this parameter is
ignored.
Sequencer: Off, On Enables or disables the Program’s sequencer for this
Part. Only Parts with the Sequencer enabled will respond to hitting the S TART button
or MIDI Start commands (when MIDI clocks are enabled in the Global setting). If this
Part uses a gated sequence Trigger mode (see below), you should leave the
Sequencer Off – the voices in this Part will play the gated sequences automatically.
Tempo: 30…250 Sets the tempo of the Part – ignored if the Sequencer is Off.
Clock Div: see table Sets the clock divider for this Part, also ignored if
Sequencer is Off.

Trigger: see table Selects the source of triggers/gates for the envelope
generators for this Part. Note that the Sequencer and/or MIDI must be enabled to
match the Trigger selected.
In the Poly (different from the Evolver) some of the Trigger modes will automatically
turn the Sequencer on. This allows gated-sequence Programs to be played without
having to manually hit the S
TART /S TOP button. The Trigger modes that do this are
marked in the table as AUTO.
Display Envelope Trigger Selections
Sq or MD The envelopes will be triggered by either the sequencer or MIDI
notes. When triggered by the sequencer, the gates are on for half
the step time. Simply adjust the envelope parameters (ADSR) for
the desired effect.
Sequencr The envelopes will be triggered by the sequencer only.
