SELECTING THE CLOCK SOURCE
You can choose how to clock the arpeggiator by
entering into programming mode and setting it up.
Hold Key Transpose until the light is flashing
(program mode)
Play a key which represents the choice you would
like to make:
F4 -
INTERNAL CLOCK
This will operate normally, and the internal
arpeggiator fader will adjust the tempo of the arp.
F#4 -
MIDI NOTES
This clocks the arpeggiator from incoming midi
note messages. It can be used in a siilar way to
analog clock input.
Advance the arpeggiator, or the powerarp
sequence one step per pulse with a midi note
(C-2 - or lowest available note.) A very interesting
solution to a long standing problem of MIDI being
a contastant and inflexible tempo without the fun,
and exploration that analog clocking can offer.
G4 -
MIDI CLOCK
This clocks the arpeggiator with the incoing MIDI
clock and starts and stops with the external
source which is sending it.
CLOCK DIVISION
You may also adjust the MIDI Clock Division by
pressing G#4 and then selecting the value of
division you want from the keyboard (see the
appendix, or the cheat sheet for the values and
keys)
You may also adjust the analog clock divider in
the same way. In programming mode, select A4
and then select the clock division you would like
to try.
When you’re done with programming operations,
press the Key Transpose button again (short
press, and the light stops flashing)
MODE & RANGE
These are the controls which configure playback
of the Powerarp sequences for performance.
MODE
The mode switch defines weather the arpeggio is
played upwards, downwards or both alternating.
There is a fourth Random Mode that can be
selected by the Range switch.
RANGE
Set the range switch to 1 or 2 to play the
sequence over a range of one or two octaves. In
two octave mode notes that would extend the
range of the keyboard are being folded back into
the keyboards range.
Set the range switch to 3 to enter random mode.
In this mode you can use the mode switch to
select different random modes as follows:
UP:
Normal random mode
DOWN:
Non repeating random mode (two
consecutive notes will never be the same)
UP & DOWN:
Forward/Backward random (the
sequence will randomly advance or go back one
step)
PLAYING A PREVIOUSLY SAVED SEQUENCE
To switch directly into Powerarp hold the KEY
TRANSPOSE button, switch on the arp using the
arp ON/OFF switch (same as recording a
sequence).
Now without recording a sequence press the KEY
transpose button again. The Juno-66 is now in
Powerarp mode with the previously used
sequence.
