76 Sequencer Sequential
Using Slew
Slew creates a smooth transition between successive, discrete control
voltage levels. You can use slew to create glide effects between note
values, a smooth filter cutoff sweep, and so on, depending on the param-
eter being sequenced.
To add slew to a sequence track:
1. Show the desired sequence and track in the display by pressing the
sequence
button to select the sequence you want ( A, B,C, or D) then
holding down the
track sel
button and press the step LED with the
corresponding track number you want to edit.
2. Press the
slew
button. A preset amount of slew is added to the track.
3. To hear the effect, press
play
to start the sequence.
Turning off the Sequencer’s “Notes” Track
By design, Sequencer track 1 always controls oscillator frequency,
meaning that it is effectively hard-wired for recording notes. However,
you may want to use the Sequencer to control other parameters without
having it trigger notes. By doing so, you can freely play notes on the
keyboard while the Sequencer controls other non-note parameters such
as filter cutoff, effect amount, oscillator shape mod, and so on.
To turn off Notes on the Sequencer:
1. Create a sequence with parameter automation.
1. Press and hold the front panel
track sel
button. Track 1 should be
displayed by default. If not, continue holding down the
track sel
button and press the
step
1 button/LED.
2. Continue to hold down the
track select
button press Soft Button 3
(
notes
) to set it to
off
.
3. Press the front panel
mode
button and select
gated
.
4. Play a series of notes on the keyboard. You’ll hear the sequenced
parameters change as you play the notes.
