The gate length of the notes is always equivalent to 50% of the note value.
Note: to modify the perceived gate length, make use of the envelope hold and
decay parameters.
6.10.3 Tempo
There are two ways to set the base tempo for the arpeggiator:
ˆ
Free-running : the tempo is set manually, using this parameter.
ˆ
Synchronized : the tempo is set automatically, using MIDI clock (USB or DIN).
The T¨ o¨ or¨ o automatically switches to synchronized mode if an external clock is received
and reverts back to the free running mode when no other clock source is available.
The display always shows the last two digits of the BPM value. If the tempo is set above
100 BPM, a dot is shown after the first digit:
85 BPM 134 BPM
6.10.4 Hold
The hold function allows the arpeggiator to continue its sequence after all notes are re-
leased.
ˆ
When hold is disabled, notes are only generated when at least one note is pressed.
ˆ
With hold enabled, the arpeggiator starts when the first note is received. The
generated sequence continues to play after all notes are released. It will then change
as soon as a new note or chord is played.
No hold Hold enabled
Note: in hold mode, the arpeggiator always stays in sync with the MIDI
timing. New sequences of notes are only started on the grid. In normal mode,
sequences starts immediately when notes are entered.
