GATE/ACCENT
The arpeggiator constantly emits a gate and an accent
signal. The Gate signal is by default in low state, and
goes high for the duration of a note.
The accent signal is by default in low state as well,
and goes high on every accented step. Usually, ev-
ery note is accented, but some of the preset patterns
contain separate note and accent data. The most im-
portant difference between Gate and Accent is their
shape, however. The accent shape has a soft slope,
which is useful for growling bass sounds. The gate has
a more abrupt shape, and is useful to chop a sustained
sound into a rhythmic pattern.
