11.3.2 MAIN Type
The second MAIN parameter, Type, is only available in Arp mode. On the keyboard, it is map-
ped to Knob 2 of the Control section in Arp Edit mode. It sets the sequential order of the ar-
peggiated notes. Choose whether your arpeggiated chord should be played from the root note
and up, the  other way  around, or even  simultaneously. Selecting  Order Played will  play back
the notes in the order you pressed down the corresponding keys on the KOMPLETE KONTROL
keyboard. Automating the Type parameter in the host can create interesting variations and tex-
tures.
The Type setting includes the following values:
▪ Up,  Down,  Up  & Down  (UP-DOWN on  the  keyboard),  Order  Played (PLAYED  on the  key-
board), Chord
