7. Enter some events in the Gate Graph by clicking the cells. The Gate Graph switches steps on and off in the
pattern.
Now try playing chords on your MIDI keyboard.
Note how the chord does not reset the pattern when you play it – generated note events occur when the
sequencer falls on steps with the Gate cell turned on.
8. Switch to the Advanced engine type.
You’ll notice that the sequencer
generates notes without any keyboard
input.
9. In the ‘Triggering’ section, set the
Latch/Hold parameter to ‘Off’.
You’ll notice that the sequencer
no longer generates notes without
keyboard input.
Now try playing a chord – the behaviour
is much the same as it was before
switching the engine type.
10. Set the Trigger Mode parameter to ‘Trig’.
Now try playing a chord. You’ll notice the pattern now starts from the
beginning whenever you play a new chord.
The Advanced engine type offers many ways of creating very complex
arpeggio patterns – see section 8:13 for more details, or just experiment!
