Blofeld User´s Manual
from the original velocity stored in the note list. However,
the generated velocities can never exceed the maximum
MIDI velocity 127 or minimum MIDI velocity 1. This
means when you have already played notes with a high
velocity,
Accent
might not be able to further offset them
positively, so you will only hear differences with negative
accent offsets. Conversely, low velocities might not be
able to be lowered by
Accent
. The only exception is
silent
. See the following description:
•
If
silent
is selected, the current step is actually
played, but inaudible. This means that the note list
is advanced by one note, but you are not able to
hear it. This feature is the opposite to
Step
set to o
pause
, which doesn’t generate any note and
therefore doesn’t advance the note list.
•
If
*1
is selected, the velocity of the current step is
not altered. The arpeggio steps are played back
with their original velocity.
•
If
Arp Accent
is set to any divisor
(/4, /3, /2
) or
multiplicator (*2, *3, *4) the velocity is raised or
lowered accordingly. For example a played
velocity of 64 generates a final velocity of 32
when set to
/2
and 128 when set to
*2
.
Glide
off / on
For each step in the arpeggio pattern you can activate the
glide effect individually. This gives you the ability to
create the classic "Bass Line" melody character. Make sure
that you set up a reasonable glide effect in the Oscillator
Edit menu.
•
If
off
is selected (empty space), the glide effect is
disabled for this step.
•
If
on
is selected, the glide effect is enabled for this
step. This means that the previous note glides to
the note that has to be played at this particular
position in the arpeggio.
w
Please note that
Glide
in the Oscillators Edit Menu
must be set to
off
when you want to set Arp Glide for
individual pattern notes. Otherwise, the glide effect
will occur on all notes.
Timing
random / -3...+3
Moves the playback time of a step forward or backward.
Forward means that a step is played later while backward
means that it is played earlier. The overall strength of this
parameter is set by
Timing Factor
. If
Timing Factor
is
set to
0
,
Arp Timing
has no effect on the rhythm at all. If
Timing Factor
is set to maximum,
Arp Timing
can move
