DESCRIPTION

TRIG

Continued

RETRIG

OFF, ON

Turns re-triggering on or off. When off, the
trig source acts as a one-shot trigger. When
on, the trigger acts repeatedly, restarting the
sequence from the beginning.

ENABLE

OFF, ON

Turns the trigger on or off.

TRGVOX

Determines which voice triggers the
sequencer.

FIRST

The first voice to play will trigger the
sequencer.

OLDEST

The oldest voice playing will trigger the
sequencer.

NEWEST

The newest voice playing will trigger the
sequencer.

MODE

This parameter determines how voices are
played once a trigger or multiple triggers
occur.

NORMAL

One trigger plays the sequence according to
the

CONFIG

page settings.

STAGE

Requires multiple triggers: each Step (“stage”)
in the sequence plays in order if each new
trigger has a different level

.

ADVANC

Requires multiple triggers: each Step plays in
order with each new trigger.

RANDOM

Requires multiple triggers: each Step plays at
random with each new trigger.

PROGRS Parameters

The Progressor allows for automatic transposing of the sequence within the limits set
by the

MIN

and

MAX

parameters. Although the

PRGRSR

is the first parameter on the

screen, you should set the

MIN

and

MAX

limits first, then adjust the

PRGRSR

value.

Using

0

as the base note (the key that’s being played) value, the

MIN

value sets the low

end of the note range where transposing takes place. Conversely,

MAX

sets the upper

limit of the note range where transposing takes place. Although both of these
parameters have a

-127

to

+127

range, the most useful limits will be within a few

octaves (

-24

to

+24

settings).

The

PRGRSR

value determines the transpose amount. A setting of

1

means that the

sequence will transpose up one semitone starting at the

MIN

note with each

repetition of the sequence until the

MAX

note limit is reached. A

PRGRSR

setting of

-1

means that the sequence will start playing at the

MAX

key and transpose down one

semitone

with each repetition until the

MIN

note limit is reached.
