Adding Velocity
When you use the keyboard to record note sequences in real time, the
sequencer records note velocity along with the note values. It’s easy,
however, to edit the existing values to add more dynamics, or if you’re
creating a sequence in step mode, add them as you go.
To edit velocity on an existing sequence:
1. Hold down the track Select button and press the step LED with the
same number as the track you want to edit. Release the track Select
button.
2. Press and briey hold the LED button for the step that you want to edit.
3. Turn soft knob 2 (vel) to set the velocity of the step.
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 as desired.
5. To listen to the sequence, make sure the Sequencer button is on, then
press play/Stop.
Velocity is only available for editing on Track 1 or Tracks that have (MIDI) Out 1
or Out 2 as their destination.
Sequencer Parameters
Here are the controls and parameters used when interacting with the sequencer.
Sequencer: On, Off—This switch turns the sequencer on and off. The
sequencer must be on in order to play a sequence.
Step Value: C0...C10, -127...127—This knob selects a note or numerical
value for the step and parameter being edited.
Slew: -127...127—Slew is used to create a smooth transition between
successive, discrete control voltage levels. In the case of the sequencer
you can use slew to create glide effects between note values, a smooth
lter cutoff sweep, and so on, depending on the parameter being
sequenced. Lower values create faster transitions.
