43 Prophet Rev2 User’s Guide Sequencer
An audio signal connected to the rear-panel
sequence
jack can be used to
control sequencer playback. This makes it possible to tempo sync the sequencer (or
arpeggiator) to a recorded drum track or other audio source. Audio signals used to
drive the arpeggiator/sequencer should not exceed 5 volts peak-to-peak. See “Seq
Pedal Mode” on page 17 for more information about choosing the appropriate mode
for these behaviors.
Programming the Polyphonic Sequencer
For most sequences you’ll probably want to use sounds with a relatively
sharp attack and short release.
To program a note sequence:
1. Press the
record
button.
2. Perform the sequence on the keyboard. The display indicates the
current step, note, and velocity as you play.
When recording a chord as a step, as long as you continue to hold at least one
note down, you can keep adding notes to the chord/step, and even use the
transpose
buttons to extend the keyboard range while doing it.
3. To add a rest as you play, press the sequencer’s
mode
button for that
step, then continue playing. To add multiple rests, press the
mode
button
once for each rest that you want to add.
4. To add a tie that extends the length of a note, play the note or chords,
then press the sequencer’s
destination
button repeatedly to extend the
note the number of steps you want.
5. To step back in the sequence, turn the sequencer’s
parameter
knob
counterclockwise. This will allow you to step backward to the desired
step so that you can rerecord it.
6. When you’re done, press
play
to listen to your sequence.
7. To save the sequence, save the program and they are saved together.
(See “Saving a Program” on page 5.)
