In MIDI mode, 11 divider outputs have clock dividers that are derived from the MIDI clock. These
are printed on the front panel. Some rhythms have been shifted to create OFFBEATS.
The LEDs signal the rhythms while the MIDI clock is running.
The number of clock pulses is specified in the MIDI standard. One bar corresponds to exactly
96 ticks. The corresponding note lengths (rhythms) are derived from this.
Here is an overview of the specified note lengths:
The
1/32th
output and the
KEYS
output generate a trigger pulse with a note length of one tick.
All other outputs generate a GATE pulse with 50% pulse width.
