XBase 09 Operating Manual
Page 29
6.4.12 Track Page
The Track Page contents three further sequencertracks. Their data is sended out via Midi-Out
socket to control external Midi-soundgenerators directly from XBase09 internal sequencer.
Every track can have its individual Midi-channel. Notenumber and -length is adjustable for
every single step. Even accent-setting is possible.
So up to three different melodielines or chords up to three notes can be programmed.
Programming the steps is the same procedure like programming drumtracks, described in
Pattern- Mode ( chapter 6.3, P.18).
When sequencertracks are added to existing drumpatterns, the drumpatterns will not be
changed in any way.
To edit Midichannel, Notenumber and -length, the first four knobs of every instrument-section
(BD, SD, HH) have a ‘page two’-function :
1.
Tune = Note
2. Pitch = Octave
3. Decay = Midichannel
4. Harmonics = Notelength
The knobs of Snaredrum- and HiHatsection are changing in the equal way.
