Pat. Reset off / on
When all steps of an arpeggio pattern are played back, the
pattern is repeated from the beginning so that the arpeggio
is looped. With Pattern Reset, you can decide if the
note list is also restarted from the beginning when the
rhythm pattern is reset.
•
If off is selected, the note list is not restarted, so
that there is no synchronization between rhythm
and note list. E.g., when you have a pattern where
four steps are set and you play three notes, the
pattern and the note list are repeated differently.
The pattern restarts after the fourth step while the
note list restarts after the third step. The arpeggio
might look like this:
Pattern Step 1
2 3 4 1 2 3 4
Note C1 E1 G1 C1 E1 G1 C1 E1
Pat. Step 1
2 3 4 1 2 3 4
Note G1 C1 E1 G1 C1 E1 G1 C1
Arpeggio with Pattern Reset set to „on“
• If on is selected, the note list will be restarted as
soon as the rhythm pattern is restarted. The same
arpeggio might now look like this (note the two
C1s in sequence):
Pattern Step 1
2 3 4 1 2 3 4
Note C1 E1 G1 C1 C1 E1 G1 C1
Pat. Step
1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4
Note C1 E1 G1 C1 C1 E1 G1 C1
Arpeggio with Pattern Reset set to „Off"
Arpeggiator Step Data Pages
The following Arpeggiator menu pages all behave
similarly. The left display parameter dial sets the Position
of the step that should be changed while the right display
parameter dial changes the value of the selected step. The
Position parameter is similar on each arpeggiator step data
page. Use the Selection dial to select between Step,
Accent, Glide, Timing and Length.
w
You can only select the steps that are in the range set
by Pat. Length. E.g., when you have set Pat.
Length
to 8, you can’t change a value of step 9 or
above.
