(*
relative to Ctrl Base key
)
The numbers in parentheses next to
various buttons on the arpeggiator surface
indicate the MIDI note numbers currently
assigned to each of these buttons or its
associated performance function in the
MIDI Control Zone. These values are
updated whenever the Ctrl Base setting
is changed.
Ctrl Base: This setting permits the MIDI
Control Zone to be positioned as desired
on the MIDI keyboard – or to be moved
completely out of the way, if it is not
wanted.
Perf Note Transpose: To compensate for
the loss of nearly an octave of the MIDI
keyboard when the MIDI Control Zone is
mapped into the active keyboard range,
it is possible to "pre-transpose" incoming
note events up or down by a full octave to
permit a different range of notes to be used
with the arpeggiator, if desired.
For example, with the MIDI Control Zone
positioned at the left end of the keyboard,
setting Perf Note Transpose to -12
restores access to the notes in the lowest
octave of the keyboard for performance
use. This is accompanied, of course, by a
corresponding "sacrifice" of note range at
the high end of the keyboard.
MIDI Thru Off: Normally, all MIDI
messages other than note events are
echoed directly to the arpeggiator output
– as are note events as well, when the
arpeggiator Hold function is active, or
when the arpeggiator is not running.
In some situations, however, you may
not want this. The MIDI Thru Off switch
is provided for these situations –
activating it suppresses
all echoing of
MIDI events from input to output.
