Players and Voicings
Different types of instruments and styles have different voicing libraries. These determine how
the chords are played back, and which pitches are played. These voicings are referred to as
players.

Adaptive Voicing
In Cubase, the adaptive voicing setting ensures that pitches in chord progressions do not change
abruptly.
Adaptive voicing is activated and the voicings of the chord pads are determined automatically
according to specific voice leading rules.
If you want to set the voicing of a specific chord pad manually, and do not want it changed
automatically, you can use the voicing control to the right of a chord pad. When you assign your
own voicing, adaptive voicing is deactivated for that chord pad, so that the pad does no longer
follow the voice leading rules of the voicing reference. To activate adaptive voicing again, right-
click the chord pad and activate Adaptive Voicing.
To lock the voicing for a chord pad, you can right-click the pad and activate Lock. This locks this
pad for editing and remote control changes, and deactivates Adaptive Voicing. To unlock the
chord pad again, right-click the pad and deactivate Lock.
Pattern Player
The pattern player allows you to break up the triggered chord to individual notes that are played
back one after another (arpeggio).
Using the Pattern Player
The pattern player plays the notes that make up the chord one after another (arpeggio).
PROCEDURE
1. Select Show/Hide Settings> Players> Pattern.
