2.7 Arp / Seq Keyed Timing Reset
D#2
D#1
2 x / 7 x
The Arp / Seq Keyed Timing Reset changes how the Arpeggiator, the Matriarch master clock, and notes played on the keyboard
will interact. When OFF, the Arpeggiator will remain locked to the Master Clock so that notes played ahead of the beat (prior
to the next step) will wait for the next beat, or clock step, to sound. When ON, notes played on the keyboard will sound
immediately, and the master clock will reset, or sync, to the timing of when the key was pressed. Use the first two white keys to
select OFF (
C0
), or ON (
D0
). The Default is OFF.
2.8 FW / BW Repeat
D#2
F#1
2 x / 8 x
When the
DIRECTION
switch in the Arp / Seq module is set to FW / BW, this setting will determine whether the first and last notes
of an arpeggio pattern or sequence are repeated as the direction changes. This can be handy both melodically and rhythmically. If
Repeat is OFF, the three-note sequence [C-E-G] would play as [C-E-G-E-C-E-G-E…]; if Repeat is ON, the same [C-E-G] sequence
would now play as [C-E-G-G-E-C-C-E-G-G-E-C…]. Use the first two white keys to select OFF (
C0
), or ON (
D0
). The Default is ON.
2.9 Delay Sequence Change
D#2
G#1
2 x / 9 x
The Global Setting for Delay Sequence Change determines how the Sequencer playback will transition from one sequence to
another. When the Sequencer is running, changing from one sequence to another will take place instantly (Delay Sequence
Change = OFF), or the active sequence will be allowed to finish before the new sequence begins (Delay Sequence Change =
ON). Use the first two white keys to select OFF (
C0
), or ON (
D0
). The Default is OFF.
2.10 ARP /SEQ Swing
D#2
A#1
2 x / 10 x
Adding Swing to the playback of the Arpeggiator or Sequencer causes the offbeat to arrive Early or Late, in varying amounts,
to change the rhythmic feel. Use any of the white keys to set the swing amount, in 2% increments. The range of available values
is from 22% (offbeat at its earliest) using key (
C0
), to 78% (offbeat at its latest) using key (
C4
). A Triplet feel, equal to a value of
66%, can be achieved using key (
D3
). The Default value is 50% (no swing), or key (
C2
).

3.1 Clock Input PPQN
F#2
C#0
3 x / 1 x
In order for the Matriarch Sequencer and Arpeggiator to sync correctly to an External Clock, this Global Setting allows you to
specify how many pulses are received per quarter note (PPQN). Use the first fourteen white keys to choose the number of clock
pulses received per quarter note. (
C0
) = 1 PPQN; (
D0
) = 2 PPQN; (
E0
) = 3 PPQN; (
F0
) = 4 PPQN; (
G0
) = 5 PPQN; (

F1
) = 11 PPQN; (
G1
) = 12 PPQN; (
A1
) = 24 PPQN; (
B1
) = 48 PPQN.
The Default is 4 PPQN (sixteenth note clock).
