7.2 Arpeggiator
The PolyKB features a simple but very powerful arpeggiator.
When on, this module reads the note hold on the keyboard and, instead playing them at the same
time, it will play each note after the other. There are three modes available:
Up , the notes are played
from the lower to the higher. Down , the note are played from the higher to the lower and Up/Down
for which they are played backward and forward. If none of these there modes are selected, then the
notes are played in a random order. The cycle can also play through another octave before restarting
when the
Oct switch is selected. Selecting the Polyphonic mode allows chord to be played according
to a specific sequence, modified easily by the user.
ON : enable or disable the arpeggiator
Poly: enable the polyphonic mode
Up : play notes ascending mode
Down : play notes descending mode
Oct : enable octave cycles before restart.
Other parameters, controlling the arpeggiator, can be found in the panel under the cassette.
Octave number : select the number of octaves applied when the switch Oct. is ON
Playing mode : select the way the new notes are managed. Free will updates the arpeggiator
immediately, but you can choose also “After Each Note” or “After Each Cycle”.
Chord Sequences : The chord sequences transposition played in polyphonic mode can be edited
there. Each number, from 0 to 12 stands for the base of the chord, and must be separated by a space,
comma or semi-colon. Up to 32 numbers can be entered.
Swing : set a swing value to the arpeggio. Turn right to
get no swing, turn left to get maximum swing. A 66%
value gives you typical jazz swing.
Gate : set the time a note (or a chord) is hold by the
arpeggio, from zero to the clock period.
