Host mode
In
Host mode
, patterns are triggered using a MIDI keyboard. A
Note on
causes the corresponding pattern to play.
This mode is recommended for creating drum line arrangement in host application. Releasing the key and sending
a
Note off
will eventually stop the pattern. It depends on whether the
Note Off Mode State
is set in configurational
panel is checked. To change
Note Off Mode
open configurational window by clicking
Options
button:
Go to
Sequencer
tab and check or uncheck the
Note Off Mode State
checkbox in
Current Settings
group.
The pattern will play back at the tempo of the host sequencer (if internal sync turned off –
Int.Sync.
) or at the tempo
which Nepheton’s
Tempo
function is set to (if using internal sync). This happens while a key is pressed and held.
This is a very creative mode which, by recording the notes into the host sequencer, can allow very complex percussion
structures to be created using patterns in Nepheton’s internal pattern memory.
It should be noted that in
Host mode
the
Start
,
Stop
and
Step buttons
on Nepheton don’t function. Patterns are only
played back while a key on a connected midi keyboard is pressed (and held).
Note: In this
mode the pattern
structure is quite
different. They
don’t consist
of parts anymore.
They’re just
Simple patterns
with maximum
16 steps. They’re
mapped to
Midi keyboard
as notes: C-1
to B-8. That is,
96 patterns.
