Gate Scale
±5V
Changes the Gate Scale on the destination track(s). Specifically, at 0V,
the
GATE SCALE
value (as set via the
(TRACK) GATE
button) is used.
Positive voltages increase the Gate Scale, until the maximum value is
reached (100%). Negative voltages decrease the Gate Scale, until the
minimum value is reached (0%).
Loopy
Gate Loopy is automatically activated and played when the gate is high, and
deactivated when the gate is low. Gate-activated Loopy is a ‘hands free’
operation, with the loop beginning playback at Stage 1 and honouring
the
LOOPY
screen’s
LOOP PULSES
and
LOOP TARGET
settings. These
can both be modulated with the
Loopy Offset
and
Loopy Pulses
functions, discussed below.
Loopy Pulses
±5V
Positive voltages increase the number of Loopy pulses (up to Loopy’s
maximum 64 pulse limit). Negative voltages decrease the number of
Loopy pulses (down to Loopy’s minimum 1 pulse limit).
Loopy Offset
±5V
Positive voltages shift the Loopy starting Stage to the right; negative
voltages shift it to the left. This is particularly useful when used in
conjunction with another AUX In or MOD Lane that’s assigned to
Loopy
⎍
, since it shifts Loopy’s starting stage to something other than
Stage 1.
Mute
Gate The track to which the AUX In or MOD Lane is assigned will toggle its
mute state when the gate input is high, and will revert when the gate
input is low.
Octave
±5V
Positive voltages increase the octave of all stages on the destination
track(s). Negative voltages decrease the octave.
Octave
tracks 1V/octave, making it convenient to use an external
keyboard or another sequencer track to change octaves. Note that
octave increases (or decreases) occur every 1V. Interim voltages do not
change octaves.
Pitch Offset
±5V
Much like the
Pitch Post
option (described above), this option also
applies pitch shift after the quantizer, but unlike the Pitch Post option,
the actual amount of pitch shifting is not limited to chromatic note
values. Positive voltages increase the pitch of all stages on the
destination track(s) after the quantization stage, while negative voltages
decrease the post-quantization pitch.
Pitch Post
±5V
Positive voltages increase the pitch of all stages on the destination
track(s) after the quantization stage. This means it’s possible (and
