4. ARPEGGIATOR
The CLOCK sets the notes of the chord serially on the arpeggiator output (depending on the
playmode).
You can set the clock manually with the key A-CLOCK or automatically with external clock. The
playmode is set with the key A-DIR or automatically with clock impulse via A-DIR input.
The arpeggiator has four playmodes:
UP
- LED up on - direction forward (loop=4 steps)
DOWN
- LED down on - direction backwards (loop=4 steps)
UPDOWN
- LEDs up+down on - direction alternated forward/backwards (loop=6steps)
RANDOM
- LEDs up+down off - direction randomized
You choose the CV of the arpeggio output only by clock input. That means a new chord choise
starts with the next arpeggio clock at the arpeggio output.
You can use the arpeggiator in all three playmodes likewise.
The arpeggio can be spread independently of the chord. You can select the spreading with dif-
ferent voltages at the CV-INPUT jack:
0..2 volt and 4..5 volt no Spreading (normal output):
The chord is played in the original tone pitch.
3..4 volt spreading first step:
The chord is spread up about 1 octave.
(the chord at the outputs 1 to 4 stays the same)
2..3 volt spreading second step:
The chord is spread up about two octaves.
(the chord at the outputs 1 to 4 stays the same)
