5.10. Motion recorder
The Motion Recorder can record the relative movements of any
one
control (knob, fader,
ribbon, etc.), with only a few
. Try this:
1. Activate the “Rec Arm” button. This puts the recorder in recording mode.
2. Hold down a key to start the recording, and keep it down for now.
3. Sweep the Master Cutoff knob in an obvious pattern.
4. Release the key to stop the recording.
5. Deactivate the “Rec Arm” button.
6. Set the Play button to Once.
7. Play one note. The filter sweep plays back once and stops.
8. Set the Play button to Loop.
9. Play one or more notes. The filter sweeps for each voice until its key is lifted.
10. Release all keys to stop playback.
Each patch can store its own Motion recording and the status of the Play button (Off, Once,
Loop).
Here's how it works:
• A Note On starts the recording, and if you play a chord, the first Note Off stops it.
• The first control you move after the Note On is the one being recorded.
• The original value of the control becomes the "zero point" for playback.
• The relative motion of the control is captured, not the actual parameter values.
• When recording is finished, the parameter returns to its original value (the zero
point).
• If the parameter value is edited, the new value becomes the zero point for
playback.
• If the motion recording is longer than the duration of the note, playback may
continue during the release stage.
5.10.1. The Stretch factor
The Motion Recorder Rate control adjusts the playback speed of the captured control
movements. Its range is from 1/8th of the original speed to 8 times the original speed.
Normal speed is at the center detente position.
5.10.2. Exceptions
There are a few controls which the Motion Recorder will not capture:
• Sequencer parameters (Gate, etc.)
• Motion Recorder Rate
• Fine Tune
• Phones
• Master Volume
• The Mod amount knob
• Buttons
And on the "plus" side, the Motion Recorder will capture all three axes of the Morphée
controller (X, Y, and Z).
