Emax II operation manual
128
Use the data slider to catalog the various modes.
●
OFF
No latching of notes. When you release your fingers from the keys,
arpeggiation stops.
●
AUTO
When you release your fingers from the keys, arpeggiation continues.
When you press down new keys, the old notes stop arpeggiating and
the new ones arpeggiate instead.
●
EXTEND
Same as auto, except that new notes are added in with old notes, thus
all played notes arpeggiate.
●
MEMORY
Holds your arpeggio in memory until an un-latched, arpeggiator-on
preset is selected. Arpeggios can be set up in advance, then started on
command with the arpeggiator footswitch or by selecting the memory
arpeggio preset.

7. To understand the next two menu items, let’s define a couple of terms:
An arpeggio
Interval
specifies what additional intervals will be played if you play a key.
For example, suppose you played C2 with an interval of 5 (a major fifth) and up mode
arpeggiation. the Emax II would arpeggiate between C2 and G2.
An arpeggio
Extension
specifies how many times the interval will be extended. For
example, with an interval of M3 (major third) and an extension of 04 (four times), if you
played a C2 with the arpeggiator in up mode the arpeggiated sequence would consist
of C2, E2 (a major third above C2), G#2 (a major third above E2), C3 (a major third above
G#2) and the fourth extension, E3.
8. The next menu item after velocity specifies the number of extensions in the arpeggio.
The display says:
Number of Ext:00
Use Data Slider
Use the data slider or the numeric keypad to step through the number of extensions,
from 00 to 15. To jump back to the module identifier press
ENTER
, otherwise press the
right arrow cursor button to continue the setup.
