(TRACK) GATE
This button opens the TRACK GATE screen, which sets the selected track’s
default gate length for all the pulses (and ratchets) in the current track.
There are two main parameters accessible by the button:
● GATE LENGTH : Sets the default gate length as a percentage of a single pulse (or a single
ratchet). This determines how long each gate signal is held high. Settings range from 1% to
99%, with a ‘Hold’ value accessible at the very end of the list.
If highlighted (the symbol is beside the GATE LENGTH parameter), turn the encoder to set the
Gate length. If the
GATE SCALE
parameter is highlighted instead, press the encoder to return
encoder control to the GATE LENGTH parameter.
NOTE: You can override a track’s gate length on a per-stage basis using the
(STAGE) GATE button, as described in
(Stage) GATE , later in this manual.
●
GATE SCALE
: Uniformly and simultaneously scales both the track’s gate length, plus any
per-stage gate length overrides (accessed via the (Stage) GATE button ).
If highlighted (the symbol is beside the GATE SCALE parameter), turn the encoder to set the
scaling. If the
GATE LENGTH
parameter is highlighted instead, press the encoder to move
encoder control to the GATE SCALE parameter.
