ted. This will start a connected sequencer. Accordingly, the 34one will transmit a
"MIDI Stop" when you turn it off.
arpeggiator
An arpeggiator ignores such commands and will start the first time you use the key-
board-keys. In this case, you do not necessarily have to wait for the "1".
shining LEDs...
The LED assumes a 4/4 time and signals the "1" with red, and the "2" "3" and"4" with
green lights. However, the 34one may also be used for any other times (e.g. 3/4).
Tap-on function
While 34one is running you can keep tapping at any time. This tapping influences
the tempo and phase.
The 34one calculates the tempo with the average values of
the last four time measurements
.
For four new measure-
ments you will have to
tap five times: e.g. "1" -
measurement - "2" -
measurement - "3" -
measurement - "4" -
measurement - "1"'
After each time 34one is turned on, all four measuring values are initialized on the
first time measurement. New values will only be accepted when they are at least
half of the actual tempo. Therefore, for larger tempo changes you should change
the tempo in small steps.
Each tap has an influence on the phase and shifts the rhythm in the direction of
the next quarter note
. (To the next "2" or "4" in the "24one mode", see below.)
exact tempo
The most exact tempo is not useful, when the music is completely out of time. This is
why the 34one uses a sophisticated algorithm, which will slightly increase or decrease
the tempo in short time, to get constantly closer to the time you are tapping.
Keep in mind that 34one
is an instrument and
exact tapping has to be
learned in the same way
as time-correct playing
of other instruments.
To keep the influence of inaccurate taps small, the average values are constantly cal-
culated. This means that with an increasing amount of taps the influence on the
phase is larger. When you stop tapping, the phase shift ceases. However, single taps
still have a certain influence.
24one Mode
High exactness in taps for higher tempi are offered by the 24one mode, which can
be activated via a small switch at the back of the device.
In this mode only half
notes are tapped
, which means that in the beginning you
tap on the "2" and the
"4"
(instead "3" and "4"), and on the "1" it starts as usual.
straight time
For the tap on (see before) you can only tap the "2" and "4" during the time. Tapping
"1" and "3" creates a huge chaotic phase shifting, since the 34one will try to get to
the next "2" or "4". The "24" mode is, therefore, only useful for straight time (2/4,
4/4, 6/8….).
note:
The switch on the back side of 34one is normally in the 3-4-one mode (default). You
have to turn it in the other direction, to use the 2-4-one mode.
