6.1.8 Arp
Pressing the Arp button on PANDAMINI II enables the Arpeggiator. After engaging Arp the PANDAMINI II takes your chords and creates
an arpeggio – ie it plays each note of the chord one after another. The Arpeggiator will run as long as keys are held, at the rhythmic value
specified by the Arp Rate.
PANDAMINI II’s Arp is a great way to come up with interesting melodies and progressions with ease.
Arpeggiator Rotary Knobs
When you hold the Arp button the rotary knobs can transform your arpeggios.
Tempo –
This knob speeds up or slows down your arpeggio relative to the Arp Rate.
Swing –
This knob sets the amount that every other note is delayed, resulting in a swung rhythm. To change the Arpeggiator’s Swing,
press and hold the Arp button, and then turn the knob labelled Swing. By default (centre position), swing will be set to 50% (meaning no
swing), with extremes of 80% (very swung) and 20% (negative swing). Negative swing means every other note is rushed, instead of
delayed.
Gate
–
Adjusting this knob will create longer or shorter MIDI notes, resulting in either a more ‘staccato’ arpeggio, or a more fluid, ‘legato’
one. This knob goes from 1% to 200% of the space between notes. For notes that have swing applied, both notes retain the same gate
length.
Arp Modes
After turning on Arp you’ll be in 1 of 5 Arpeggiator Modes, each resulting in arpeggios of different note orders. To change the Arp Mode,
press and hold the Arp button, and then press the key corresponding to your desired mode.
Up –
Here notes are played in ascending order (ie rising in pitch). If notes are added, the number of notes in the sequence will grow but
remain in ascending order. For example, you may start by holding down a first note - E3 - then quickly add two more notes - C3 and G3.
The resulting arpeggio will be C3, E3 and G3.
Down –
This Mode is similar to Up Mode, but notes play in descending order (eg G3, E3, C3).
Up/Down –
This arpeggio Mode starts by playing notes in ascending order. Then, after reaching the highest note, the notes descend
towards the lowest note, which plays once before the arpeggio rises again and stop before reaching the lowest note. This means that
when the pattern repeats, the lowest note only plays once.
Played –
Here notes are kept repeated in whatever order they were played.
Chord –
All notes are played back on every rhythmic step (see Arp Rate). This makes playing fast chords very easy.
