Doepfer R2M Midi-Ribbon-Controller - Manual (Page 16)

Page 16 R2M User's Guide V1.11
Several quantization tables are available and can be chosen in this menu:
12 tone all 12 semitones of an octave are generated
Major only the tones of the major scale are generated
Minor only the tones of the minor scale are generated
Quart only fundamental and quart
Quint only fundamental and quint
MajorCh only the tones of the major chord are generated
MinorCh only the tones of the minor chord are generated
Quart6 only fundamental, quart and sixth
Quint6 only fundamental, quint and sixth
MajCh6 only the tones of the major chord and the sixth are generated
MinCh6 only the tones of the minor chord and the sixth are generated
Quart7 only fundamental, quart and seventh
Quint7 only fundamental, quint and seventh
MajCh7 only the tones of the major chord and the seventh are generated
MinCh7 only the tones of the minor chord and the seventh are generated
The function is very similar to the Quantizer module A-156 of the A-100 system.
Please look at the manual of the A-156 if you want to know more about quantizers.
The manual can be downloaded from our web site www.doepfer.com as pdf file.
4-2 Number octave
Range: 1 - 5
This parameter determines the number of octaves (1 - 5) that correspond to the full
range (~ 50cm) of the position sensor.
4-3 Retrigger time
Range: 0 – 100 milliseconds
This is the retrigger time measured in milliseconds that is used for the note messages
b and d described in menu 2-1. The retrigger time is the time interval between gate
off and gate on state resp. between note of and note on messages for note events.
Please refer to chapter 2-1 for details.
4-4 Transpose offset
Range: 0 – 96
Incoming Midi note events (e.g. from a Midi keyboard) can be used to transpose the
R2M Midi note messages provided that the Midi channel corresponds to the Midi
channel of the R2M (see chapter 3-1). The transpose offset is the note number value
that is subtracted from the incoming note number before the transposition is
calculated.
Example: For incoming Midi note messages the note number 36 has to be the
reference, i.e. note number 36 corresponds to zero transpose, 37 to one semitone
transpose up, 38 to two semitones transpose up and so on. In this case the
transpose offset 36 has to be chosen.
A special case is transpose offset = 00. This deactivates the transpose function and
the incoming note events are simply merged in the messages generated by the R2M
provided that the Midi channel corresponds to the Midi channel of the R2M.
