2. Gate Length (GATE) button
When in Edit mode, press this button to edit the gate
length for all steps in the selected Track (each track
has its own gate length setting). Gate Length editing
is available when the GATE button glows
red
.
When editing gate lengths, the left column of buttons
sets the actual length. The top button pins the gate
length to the width of the input pulse; the bottom
button makes a gate last the full width of the step
(allowing for ties). Middle values result in steadily
increasing gates of fixed length, with the shortest
gates occurring toward the top, and growing
increasingly longer as you move lower.
To set the Gate Length for the selected track, simply
press the left column button corresponding to the
desired value. If you long-press (>1 sec) the value
button, you apply the Gate Length setting to all four
tracks simultaneously.
In the this example, the Gate Length is set to a value
slightly more than halfway between “short” and “long.”
