Arpeggiator 6•3
VELOCITY: Although it is effectively a volume control, the veloc-
ity parameter actually controls “how hard the arpeggiator hits the
keys”. Depending on the sound selected, reducing the velocity
will reduce the volume of the arpeggio but it also reduces any
other parameters which have been assigned to velocity in that
sound, (e.g. Filter, Envelope speed etc. ). If you turn the dial past
the maximum setting, 127, you will find the setting for
INPUT
velocity. When set, this means that the velocity of the arpeggio
pattern will be identical to the velocity with which the keys were
struck.
LENGTH: Here you can set the length of the individual notes
which make up the arpeggio. The longest notes are 1/4 notes.
As you increase the fractional amount, the length becomes short-
er, (with the shortest possible setting being 1/192).
CRESCENDO: This causes the volume of the arpeggio to fluctu-
ate as the pattern is repeated. This gives the interesting effect of
the arpeggio either going away from you or coming towards you.
The effect is repeated each time the arpeggio loops around. If
you set a positive value, (by turning the dial clockwise), this will
create the effect that the arpeggio is starting somewhere in the
distance and then coming towards you. If you set a negative val-
ue, the reverse effect will happen.
DELAY: This parameter allows you to adjust the amount of time
which elapses between the time you press the keys and the
moment at which the arpeggio starts. Each step represents 1/
192nd of a beat. Therefore, if you set it to 192, there will be a
delay of exactly 1 beat. A setting of 96 will delay it by exactly half
a beat and so on.
REPEAT: If this is set to OFF the arpeggio will only play through
once and then stop. If you set it to ON, the arpeggio will continue
until the keys are released, (or until HOLD is turned off)
TRANSPOSE: This allows you to create some interesting ef-
fects by having the arpeggio play in a different key from the notes
which were originally played. The amount of pitch shift can be
set in half step increment either up, (positive values - clockwise)
or down, (negative values - anti clockwise).
