Monomachine SFX-6/60 USER’S MANUAL 61
• To activate the arpeggiator on the SFX-60 module without an exter-
nal MIDI keyboard added, you can hold [FUNCTION] while pressing
the [TRIG] keys.
• The arpeggiato settings can be copy cleared and pasted using
[FUNCTION]+[COPY]/[CLEAR]/[PASTE]
• To create computer-game-like arpeggiato chords, set Speed to a low
value, select mode SID and turn off AMP FLT and LFO trigging as
described in the section below.
ARPEGGIATOR ENVELOPE TRIGGING SWITCHES
You will find three switches that control the envelope trigging of the
arpeggiator below the four parameters described in “ARPEGGIATOR
BASIC SETTINGS“. You move the inverted focus square to the right of the
“TRIG:” label with the [LEFT] and [RIGHT] keys, and adjust the settings
with [UP] and [DOWN].
• AMP = AMPLITUDE ENVELOPE
• FLT = FILTER ENVELOPE
• LFO = LFO ENVELOPE
If the label is displayed the envelope trigging connection is switched ON,
and if “---” is printed it is switched OFF. If the trigging connection is ON for an
envelope, it will be trigged for each note played by the arpeggiator. All enve-
lopes are always trigged when the first note of the arpeggiato is played.
• It can be useful to turn all envelope trigging off for fast arpeggiato
speeds, and allow the envelopes to give the impression of the
arpeggiated chord as one sound.
• If you are using a trigged LFO for a slow modulation of a parameter
it can be useful to turn off LFO Envelope Trigging in the arpeggiator
to let the LFO modulate without being restarted for each note.
• The envelope trigging switches are not available in the MIDI
sequencer arpeggiators, as MIDI do not allow for such type of
extended control.
ARPEGGIATO RHYTHM AND OFFSET TRACK
The arpeggiator offers a Rhythm and Offset Track of up to sixteen steps.
This can be used to make rhythmic arpeggiator patterns, one-finger melo-
dies or very wild out of control arpeggiator patterns.
By default the Rhythm and Offset Track is eight steps of length. The LEVEL
encoder is used for adjusting the length of the track. The length is indicated
by the <TRACK> LED’s being lit up.
Green LED’s indicate that the arpeggiator is active for the step. Red LED’s
will be skipped. Use the [TRIG] keys for switching the steps.
