You can program PER STEP RATCHETS (trigger repeats

on the specific steps) on the PĒRKONS HD-01. To do so,

push and hold the relevant step button while pushing

and holding the RATCHET button and then pushing one

of TAP buttons. There are x2, x3, x4 and x5 repeats

available. An example to the left shows 4 repeats

programmed on step 5 of the second voice.

Push and hold a step button and press the RATCHET,

ODDS1, ODDS2 and PROBABILITY buttons to inspect

which of these per-step settings have been applied to

the step.

PER-STEP RATCHETS

You can program the ODDS of playing a step on the

PĒRKONS HD-01, meaning, that with odds 1/2, the relevant

step will be played every second time the sequencer is

activating the step. To do so, push and hold the relevant

step button while pushing and holding the ODDS1 (1/2, 1/3,

1/4 and 1/8) or ODDS2 (2/3, 3/4, 4/5, 7/8) button and then

pushing one of TAP buttons.

An example to the left shows ODDS of 3/4, programmed

on step 9 of the third voice. Push and hold a step button

and press the RATCHET, ODDS1, ODDS2 and PROBABILITY

buttons to inspect which of these per-step settings have

been applied to the step.

Take note that only one ODDS or PROBABILITY setting can

be set per-step at a time!

PER-STEP ODDS

To “animate” your performance and give it a more “human” feel, per-step automations are available.
