• With [SEQ] active, the Matrix view options and several track operations are
available.
• With [ARP] active, the Octave range and Copy to Seq options are available.
8.1.2. Hold mode
Enable [Hold] and the Seq/Arp pattern continues playing after the keys are released.
8.1.3. Metronome
Press [Metro] to activate the metronome. To set the metronome level and pre-count mode,
hold [Metro] for 1 second.
8.1.4. Time divisions
Press [Time Div] to access the Time Division menu. This sets the underlying step duration
on which sequences and patterns are based. Settings range from 1/2 notes to 1/32nd notes,
and include dotted, binary, and triplet note value options.
[Assign 1-5] select the step duration and [Assign 6-8] select the note value option. Press [Time
Div] repeatedly to step through the time divisions for the selected note value.
8.1.5. Swing percent
Press [Swing] to select the swing percentage. This only affects playback; it does not alter the
location of the original notes.
8.1.6. Rate
Rate dials in the sequencer tempo, from 30 to 240 beats per minute. The tempo appears in
the upper-right corner of the display in every mode. When locked to an external clock, the
rate changes in exact divisions of time based on the incoming clock.
To adjust the tempo in increments of 0.10 beats per minute, hold [SEQ] and turn the Rate
knob.
8.1.7. Gate
The Gate knob controls the duration of each step. At maximum, each note overlaps the
following step by 99% of the Time Div setting (i.e., almost double the step length).
8.1.8. The transport
The Seq-Arp section offers standard transport controls: Record, Stop, and Play. There is one
button that is not as common, though: [Tap]. It is explained in the next section.
♪
: To send an All Notes Off command, press the Stop button quickly three times.
