notes, they get taken out. If you play notes faster than the arpeggiator’s current tempo, each
subsequent note gets added to the arpeggiation at the next division of a beat. This can cause a lag
between the time you play the note and the time you hear it in the arpeggiation.
In the next three modes, the arpeggiator latches notes only when MIDI Controller 119 (ArpLatch)
sends a value of On (64 or higher). An easy way to experiment with these modes is to assign the
Mod Wheel to send MIDI 119.
Overplay
The arpeggiator latches any notes in the arpeggiator that are being held when ArpLatch goes on,
and continues playing them, even after you let them go, until ArpLatch off. Any notes that you
play after ArpLatch is already on do not get arpeggiated, even if they’re in the arpeggiation
region.
Arpeg
Similar to
Overplay
: any notes in the arpeggiator region that are held when ArpLatch goes on are
latched and arpeggiated, and keep going until ArpLatch goes off. Any notes you play outside the
arpeggiation region play normally. Notes that you play inside the arpeggiation region do
not
play unless you hold them on, in which case they become part of the arpeggiation.
They drop out of the arpeggiation as soon as you release them.
Add
As with
Overplay
and
Arpeg
, all notes in the arpeggiator region being held when ArpLatch goes
on get latched, and keep playing until ArpLatch goes off (even if you’ve released the notes). Any
notes you play in the arpeggiator region after ArpLatch is already on also get latched.
Auto
This value is independent of ArpLatch. Every note you play in the arpeggiator region is
automatically latched, and the arpeggiator runs as long as you hold at least one arpeggiated note.
As long as you keep holding on at least one note (it doesn’t have to be the same note the whole
time), every note you play in the arpeggiation region gets latched.
Pedals
A combination of
Keys
,
Add
, and
Overplay
. It relies on both ArpLatch (MIDI 119) and Latch2
(MIDI 118). If neither latch controller is on, notes in the arpeggiator region get arpeggiated only
while you are holding down keys (similar to
Keys
).
If you activate Controller 119, notes in the arpeggiator region that are currently held on get
latched, and any additional notes in the arpeggiator region played while Controller 119 is on also
get latched (similar to
Add
). When Controller 119 is off, any notes in the arpeggiator region that
are not currently held on get removed from the arpeggiation.
If you activate Controller 118, notes in the arpeggiator region that are currently held on get
latched, and any additional notes in the arpeggiator region played while Controller 118 is on play
normally (similar to
Overplay
). This mode is called Pedals mode because you might want to
assign Switch Pedal 1 to
Controller 119
(Latch 1) and Switch Pedal 2 to
Controller 118
(Latch 2) to
make the pedals function similarly to sustain and sostenuto pedals.
