8.4. Matrix Arpeggiator
This mode is a hybrid of the Sequencer and the Arpeggiator. Hold up to six notes, and out
of those PolyBrute plays the ones you enable on each step, in a specific octave for each
step, for up to 16 steps before repeating. The arpeggio rhythm is shaped by enabling and
disabling the steps in each column, which are then played back in order according to the
Play Mode setting.
The following graphic shows how a monophonic pattern might look. Here are some things
to know:
• Row A adds a slide to that step; Row B adds an accent to that step.
• Row C enables a step to play a note. This arpeggio has rests at steps 2, 6, and 7.
• Rows D-I represent held notes 1-6. If 5 notes are held, for example, row D does
not affect the pattern.
• Row J shifts a step +1 octave; Row K means no shift; Row L shifts a step -1 octave.
