Advance Oct. First
Reverse Oct. First
These buttons control how the arpeggiator organises its note queue when multiple
octaves are in use (when
Oct. Range is set to 2 or higher).
When Advance Oct. First is enabled, the arpeggiator plays through the available octaves in the note queue first, before
advancing through the available notes.
For example, with an
Oct. Range of 3, and the notes C1, E1 and G1 held down:
• Advance Oct. First off:
G3
E3
C3
G2
E2
C2
G1
E1
C1
• Advance Oct. First on:
G3
E3
C3
G2
E2
C2
G1
E1
C1
Reverse Oct. First takes effect only when both Arp. Mode and Oct. Mode are set to ‘FwdRev’ or ‘RevFwd’, and dictates
whether the octave queue is played forwards or backwards first.
With an
Oct. Range of 3, Arp. Mode and Oct. Mode both set to ‘FwdRev and the notes C1, E1 and G1 held down:
• Reverse Oct. First off:
G3
E3 E3
C3
G2 G2
E2 E2 E2 E2
C2 C2
G1
E1 E1
C1
• Reverse Oct. First on:
This setting creates a ‘glissando’ of all possible notes.
