Range

C Major

The cadence direction and range is set by the
Range parameter. This is a bi-polar setting and
can control the direction of the cadence even
though the general shape is maintained. The
shape is determined by the Phrase option. The
notes as selected in the (PITCH) menu will play
as chords or arpeggio style notes based on the
(STYLE) setting. The examples here assume
chords set polyphonically for the style.

In this example, Cadence 1 controls the chord changes 1,2 & 3 in line with the
cadence shape. This is illustrated at the normal x1 rate across the 4 bars.

The amount that the chords are transformed and offset from the original position is
based on the Range. In this and following examples the range is set to one orange
step right - range up.
