added to the cycle by pressing and releasing keys while still at least one key is pressed.
This way you can build up large note-cycles quickly in auto-play sequencer style. The
arpeggiator stops when all keys are released.
PLAY (play direction) selects between five modes of arpeggiator playback.
• TRUE - The arpeggiator plays the notes in the same order they were played.
• UP - The arpeggiator sorts the notes and plays them upwards, in rising order.
• DOWN - The arpeggiator sorts the notes and plays them downwards, in descending
order.
• CYCLE - The arpeggiator sorts the notes and plays them cycling first upwards then
downwards.
• RND - The arpeggiator plays the notes in random order.
RNGE (octave range) controls the octave range. If the parameter is set higher than the
default “1 OCT”, the arpeggiator will repeat the cycles in higher octaves repeatedly up to
the specified setting.
OJMP (octave jump) tells the sequencer where in the arpeggiator chord the octave jump is
made. '0' means after the full chord has played. '1' means one step before the end of the
chord. '2' means two steps before the end of the chord and so on.
• To activate the arpeggiator in a track, enter chords!
• To activate the arpeggiator on the Monomachine tabletop versions you can hold
[FUNCTION] while pressing the [TRIG] keys.
• Copy, clear, paste and undo functions are available to the arpeggiato settings
using [FUNCTION]+[REC]/[PLAY]/[STOP]
• To create computer-game-like arpeggiato chords, set SPD to a low value, select
mode SID and turn off AMP FLT and LFO trigging as described in the section
below.
ARPEGGIATOR ENVELOPE TRIGGING SWITCHES
You will find three switches that control the envelope trigging of the arpeggiator below the
four parameters described in “ARPEGGIATOR BASIC SETTINGS“. You move the focus
square to the right of the “TRIG:” label with the [LEFT] and [RIGHT] keys, and adjust the
settings with [UP] and [DOWN].
• AMP = Amplitude envelope
• FLT = Filter envelope
• LFO = LFO envelope
If the label is displayed the envelope trigging connection is switched ON, and if “---” is
shown it is switched OFF. If trigging is ON for an envelope, it will be trigged for each note
played by the arpeggiator. All envelopes are always trigged when the first note of the
arpeggiato is played.
