MIDI Effects
Arpache SX
results in a list of numbers. For example, if the notes in the MIDI part are C E G A E C and
they are sorted according to pitch, the list of numbers reads 1 2 3 4 2 1. Here, there are 4
different notes/numbers and 6 trigger positions.
The MIDI input (the chord you play) generates a list of numbers, with each note in the chord
corresponding to a number depending on the Sort by setting.
Furthermore, the two lists of numbers are matched – Arpache SX tries to play back the
pattern from the dropped MIDI part but using the notes from the MIDI input. The result
depends on the Play Mode setting.
Trigger
The whole pattern from the dropped MIDI file is played back, but transposed
according to one of the notes in the MIDI input. Which note is used for
transposing depends on the Sort by setting.
Trigger Cnt.
As above, but even if all keys are released, the phrase continues playing from the
last position (where it stopped), if a new key is pressed on the keyboard. This is
typically used when playing live through the Arpache SX.
Sort Normal
Matches the notes in the MIDI input with the notes in the dropped MIDI part. If
there are fewer notes in the MIDI input, some steps in the resulting arpeggio
remain empty.
Sort First
As above, but if there are fewer notes in the MIDI input, the missing notes are
replaced by the first note.
Sort Any
As above, but if there are fewer notes in the MIDI input, the missing notes are
replaced by random notes.
Arp. Style
As above, but if there are fewer notes in the MIDI input, the missing notes are
replaced by the last valid note in the arpeggio.
Repeat
In this mode, the chords played are not separated into notes. Instead, they are
used as is, and only the rhythm of the dropped MIDI part is used for playback.
NOTE
You can choose to keep the original note timing, note length, and note velocities from the
dropped MIDI part, by selecting from sequence for the Step Size, Length, and Velocity
options.
