Sequencer
The Pro-One's 64-note sequencer allows you to record themes, riffs, walking bass lines or the
like. All sequenced notes and rests are single-step recorded with the same duration. The Pro-1
sequencer does not record notes of varying duration. No matter how unevenly you record a
Pro-1 sequence, it will always play-back with all notes and rests evenly timed. The playback
speed is controlled by the LFO/CLOCK FREQUENCY knob. The 64-note memory capacity is
present in two "banks," referred to as SEQ 1 and SEQ 2.
When the Pro-1 is switched on, its sequencer is preprogrammed with anascending scale in
SEQ 1 and a descending scale in SEQ 2. Provided the PLAY-RECORD switch is down, you
can now hear these two sequences by just switching the bank selector to SEQ 1 or SEQ 2.
To record, first switch PLAY-RECORD up, then select SEQ 1 or SEQ 2. Simply play the notes
on the keyboard, inserting rests by switching from RECORD to PLAY, then back to RECORD.
Rhythmic variations can only be arranged by inserting rests. All notes must be played
detached, as you would in NORMAL--as opposed to RETRIG--mode (see paragraph 1-4). A
sequence cannot begin with a rest.
Be sure to not exceed the 64-note capacity, or the sequence will be destroyed. When the
65th note or rest is entered, the first 64 notes are cleared. The bank then contains one note.
When finished recording, first switch the bank selector OFF, then switch from RECORD to
PLAY.
When switched to PLAY, the Pro-One will sequence the notes and rests you recorded in the
selected bank at a rate set by the LFO/CLOCK FREQUENCY knob. (Or, the sequencer can
be advanced by pulses at the GATE/CLK IN jack. See Top panel section). The sequence will
play continuously ("loop") until the bank selector is switched OFF.
The sequencer memory banks will retain their contents until power is switched off (or
interrupted). Any transposition is cleared as well.
The Pro-1 has 2 64-step sequencers built in to the device. This accepts incoming MIDI/CV
signals and can be recorded and played back internally. This is operated using the 2 switches
in the SEQUENCER section.
•
Set the first switch to either SEQ 1 or SEQ 2, depending on which slot you want to use.
•
Set the second switch to RECORD
•
Input your MIDI/CV notes that you want to sequence, up to 64 steps.
•
Move the first switch to OFF
•
Move the second switch to PLAY
•
Move the first switch to your desired Sequence slot. You should then hear your
sequence being played
To overwrite a sequence, simply move the second switch to RECORD again. The tempo can
be controlled using the FREQUENCY dial in the LFO/CLOCK section.
