Arpeggiator

The arpeggiator is an advanced arpeggiator with many different combinations of patterns, Mod Patterns, and Transpose patterns.

The arpeggiator is actually a MidiFX and is only available in the modes that support MidiFX: MIDI Keyboard (MI), Chords (CH), and Euclidian Sequencer (EL).

In MIDI Keyboard and Chords modes, holding AUX allows you to quickly change basic settings of the arpeggiator. In order to access the more advanced functionalities, you need to access the arpeggiator parameters by either entering the MidiFX Group submode or by accessing the Arpeggiator pass-through mode by using AUX + Bottom Key 12.

The arpeggiator sends clock when in use.

Parameters:

Page 1:

  • MODE: Arpeggiator mode: On, 1-Shot, Once, Hold
  • PAT: The pattern of the arpeggiator
  • RSET: Determines what will cause the arpeggiator to reset
  • CHC%: How likely an incoming note will be used with the arpeggiator. Try playing with in the euclidean sequencer mode

Page 2:

  • RATE: How fast the arpeggiator plays
  • RANG: How many octaves to advance through
  • GATE: How long a note coming out of the arpeggiator is
  • BPM: Controls the master tempo

Page 3:

  • ODIST: How many semitones to consider an octave. Set to -12 to make the arpeggiator go downwards. Set to a semitone offset if you like to get weird

Page 4: These are not modifyable

  • VEL : Velocity based on first notes that turn on the arp
  • CHAN : First note that starts the arp sets the channel
  • MIDI : If midi data is output
  • CV : If CV data is output

Page 5 - Mod Pattern:

  • Each of the 16 steps can be used to modify the arp pattern in various ways

Page 6 - Transpose Pattern:

  • Each of the 16 steps can be used to transpose notes in semitones
  • Recommend trying to use for some cool one key bass patterns
