THE SEQUENCER
38
Select the track to which you want to add trig mute trigs by pressing the corresponding [TRACK] key. While in
the TRIG MUTE menu, entered trigs will mute any trigs placed of the active track, given the trigs are located on
the same sequencer steps.
• Trig mutes can be quickly added to note trigs or trigless locks. Keep the note trig or trigless lock
pressed and press [BANK A/E]. A trig mute trig will automatically be placed on the same
sequencer step as the note trig/trigless lock.
• Press a note trig/trigless lock to quickly see if a trig mute trig is placed on the same sequencer
step as the trig. If that is the case, the <BANK A/E> LED will light up.
• Trig mutes are good for experimenting with the feel of tracks when playing live. The last eight
steps of a bass line track could for example be muted to build suspense.
ACCENT
Adding accent trigs is useful for quickly changing the volume and filter envelope behavior, or accentuation, for
chosen steps of a track. Accent level is also a modulation destination, meaning it can be affected by for example
LFOs. Open the ACCENT menu by pressing [FUNCTION] + [BANK B/F].
Select the track that will be affected by pressing the corresponding [TRACK] key. Select the accent value by
turning the LEVEL knob. The higher the value, the more accentuation will be added to accent trigs.
While the ACCENT menu is open, the sequencer will display accent trigs. Place or remove accent trigs by
pressing the [TRIG] keys. If an accent trig is placed on the same sequencer step as a note trig, the note trig will
be accentuated.
• A note trig can be quickly accented. Keep the note trig pressed and press [BANK B/F]. An accent
trig will automatically be placed on the same sequencer step as the note trig.
• Press a note trig/trigless lock to quickly see if an accent trig is placed on the same sequencer step
as the trig. If that is the case, the <BANK B/F> LED will light up.
NOTE SLIDE
The NOTE SLIDE menu makes it possible for the pitch of two separate note trigs to slide between each other.
Open the menu by pressing [FUNCTION] + [BANK C/G]. When this menu is active and [TRIG] keys are
pressed, note slide trigs will be placed on the sequencer.
If a note slide trig is placed on the same step as a note trig, the pitch of the previous note trig will slide. For
instance, if a track contains two note trigs and a note slide trig is placed on the same step as the second note
trig, the pitch of the first note trig will slide to the pitch of the second note trig. The speed of the pitch slide is
determined by the SLI parameter, found in the second page of the OSC2 menu. Read more about this parame-
ter in “Appendix A: SYNTH TRACK PARAMETERS“.
