7.10 Bend 8 ARPEGGIATOR
7.10 Bend
The Bend output delivers a bipolar signal in the range -5V..+5V according to the
MIDI Pitch Bend 14-bit value.
7.11 Wheel
This output delivers a signal in the range 0..+5V that corresponds to the mod-
ulation wheel, which is effectively a MIDI controller with CC# 1 with its usual
value range 0..127.
7.12 Glide
The Glide knob provides a portamento effect, enabling continuous gliding
from one note to another. Low values allow a short glide time in a range of
milliseconds that applies a special character to the sound. High values will
result in a long glide time which can be useful for solo and sound effects.
The behaviour of the glide function is dependent on the Gate Trigger setting:
• In Single trigger mode, portamento is only applied when notes are played
legato (also known as fingered portamento)
•
In Note On and All mode, portamento is always applied
8 Arpeggiator
The arpeggiator splits up chords played on the keyboard or via incoming MIDI
messages into single notes and plays them as a sequence.
Functionally, it sits between the MIDI input from the keyboard, USB or MIDI and
the processing of the messages. It is driven by clock events, which can either
be generated by KB37’s internal clock generator or received by MIDI.
8.1 Switching on/off
The control panel features a dedicated Arpeggiator button for quickly turning
the arpeggiator on and off. The button has an internal LED that will blink when
the arpeggiator is enabled.
This is how you enable/disable the arpeggiator:
•
Press the Arpeggiator button once briefly to turn the arpeggiator on
•
Press the Arpeggiator button again to turn it off
• When disabled: press and hold the Arpeggiator button for about one sec-
ond to enable the arpeggiator in hold mode (described below)
8.2 Play Parameters
Besides enabling/disabling and hold mode, which can be directly accessed via
the control panel, the arpeggiator’s play parameters are set by pressing a key
on the keyboard while holding the
Setup button. This is similar to the setup
functions described later.
Hint: You can also change a play parameter when holding a chord with the
right hand. The position of the Setup key and the assignment on the keybed is
designed so that it can be operated with only the left hand.
