Exploring the Master Arpeggiator
Exploring the Master
Arpeggiator
XL-7’s multi-channel Pattern Generator/Arpeggiator is one of the greatest
features ever put in a synth. Let’s explore the Master Arpeggiator.
To Arpeggiate a Single Preset:
1.
Select a preset
. Note that the factory presets all have prefixes which
describe the type of sound. For this investigation it might be best to
choose a preset with the prefix “arp,” for arpeggiator. These presets are
optimized for use with the arpeggiator.
2.
Set the Arp parameter in the main preset selection screen to “
M
” for
Master Arpeggiator.
3.
Press the
Arp
button in the Edit section of the front panel to access the
master Arpeggiator menu, then use the
data entry control
to scroll to
the screen shown below.
4.
Make sure the arpeggiator Status is “
on
.” Play the keyboard to start
arpeggiating.

15 & 16 to change the
arpeggiator parameters.
5.
Press either
cursor key
repeatedly to move the cursor below the Status
field.
6.
Turn the
data entry control
clockwise one click. The Mode screen
appears.
7.
Use the
cursor keys
to move the cursor to the
Mode
field (up, down, up/
down, forw asgn, backw asgn, forw/backw, random, pattern). Try out
the different modes as you play the keyboard.
8.
Move the cursor back to the lower left position and explore the other
parameters. The
Note Value
parameter changes the rate of the arpeggios.
By the way, note value is a divisor based on the Master Tempo. Try
changing the tempo, but come right back.
