GATE (RHYTHMIC GATE)
When set to Gate, the sound level of sustained notes is gated
rhythmically according to the Rate setting, and the selected pattern
if Pattern is turned on. The intensity or “hardness” of the gate is
determined by the ENV (Envelope) parameter.
PATTERN
All three Arpeggiator/Gate modes can use the PATTERN setting (Shift +
Arpeggiator mode). With Pattern On, the notes of the arpeggio or steps
of the gate conform to the rhythm defined by the selected pattern.
Apart from the available set of preset patterns, custom patterns of
varying length can be created. Patterns can be used both with Arpeggio
and Poly Arpeggio as well as with the Gate mode.
Patterns are selected or defined in the Arpeggiator MENU. Read more
about patterns and all other Menu functions further down.
RANGE / ENV
The range which an arpeggio spans is determined by the RANGE knob.
At the 0 setting the arpeggio only uses the actual notes played on the
keyboard. In Poly mode this translates to the played note or chord being
retriggered and repeated as is. Apart from the values of even octaves,
ranging from 1-4, values between each octave can be used as well for
arpeggios ranging for example 2 octaves and a fifth.
When the GATE is active this knob controls the envelope (ENV) of the
Gate. At the zero position the envelope is very soft, producing a smooth
amplitude modulation. At the maximum position the envelope is very
“hard”, in effect turning the sound on and off in accordance with the
Gate tempo and pattern.
ARPEGGIATOR MENU
The Arpeggiator MENU has five pages, the first of which is used for
common Arpeggiator settings while the following four pages are all
related to the Pattern functionality.
The middle and right dials are used for making settings on each page
and the left dial is used for navigating between pages.
1 – DIRECTION AND ZIG ZAG
By default the Direction of the arpeggio is set to Up. The other
available directions are Down, Up/Down and Random. This parameter
has no effect when using the Gate.
With Zig Zag activated, played notes will jump by two steps and then
back one, in a given direction.
2 – PATTERN PRESETS AND LENGTH
There are a number of preset patterns, selectable with the Preset dial,
designed to provide both simple and complex rhythms in both mono
and stereo modes. These patterns can be used as is, or selected and
then customised using the following Menu pages.
The Length dial sets the number of steps in the pattern, from 2 to 16.
3 – PATTERN EDIT
The Position dial is used to move the cursor back and forth in the
pattern. At a given position the Gate dial can be used for inserting or
deleting steps, or altering the length of a selected step.
4 – PATTERN ACCENT
The Position dial is used to move back and forth in the pattern. The
Accent dial adds an accent to the selected step, indicated by a triangle
above the grid.
i Note that in Arp or Poly mode, a parameter affecting velocity
sensitivity, such as Amp or Filter Velocity, needs to be active for the
accent to have any effect.
5 – PATTERN PAN
Use the Position dial to move back and forth in the pattern. The Pan
dial is used for moving the selected step between Left, Center and Right
in the stereo panorama.
ARPEGGIATOR RATE/TIME
The RATE/TIME knob sets the rate, which is displayed as
quarter note beats per minute (BPM) in the display.
i Note that the arpeggiator plays 1/8 notes in the
given tempo, which also equals one step of a pattern.
ARPEGGIATOR MASTER CLOCK
Press SHIFT and turn the Arpeggiator RATE/TIME knob clockwise to
sync the Arpeggiator or Gate with the Master Clock. When synchronized
to the Master Clock, the Rate/Time knob is used for setting the
arpeggio’s subdivision in relation to the Master Clock tempo. The
subdivisions are described in meter: 1/2 equals half notes at the clock
tempo, 1/4 equals quarter notes, 1/8 are eight notes etc. A “T” indicates
a meter with triplet feel.
