36 Arpeggiator
Sequential
Arpeggiator
The Trigon-6 has a full-featured Arpeggiator. Turn it on, hold a chord
and the Trigon-6 will play a pattern based on the individual notes held.
Choose a mode (up, down, random, etc.), an octave range (1, 2, or 3),
and a tempo, then pair it with an appropriately percussive sound, and
you’ll be surprised at the number of creative things you can do.
When
hold
is active, the Arpeggiator is in “relatch” mode, where play-
ing a new chord latches to the new chord rather than adding notes to the
existing chord.
If you enable
hold
, you can release the notes on the keyboard and the
Arpeggiator will continue to play. In addition, the Arpeggiator features
auto-latching: With
hold
on, played notes are held on and arpeggiated,
and any additional notes you play are added to the arpeggio—as long as
at least one key is continuously held.
You can sync the Arpeggiator to external MIDI clock, or even an external
audio signal. When the Arpeggiator is playing, the Sequencer is disabled.
