Setting Description
Playmode
buttons
Allows you to select the playback order for the arpeggiated notes. The
options are down+up, up+down, up, down, random (“?” button) and
“Order off”, in which case you can set the playback order manually with
the Play Order fields below.
Quantize Determines the speed of the arpeggio, as a note value related to the
project tempo. The range is 32T (1/32 note triplets) to 1. (dotted note
values).
Length Sets the length of the arpeggio notes, as a note value related to the
project tempo. The range is the same as for the Quantize setting.
Semi-Range Determines the arpeggiated note range, in semitones counted from
the lowest key you play. This works as follows:
- Any notes you play that are outside this range will be transposed in oc-
tave steps to fit within the range.
- If the range is more than one octave, octave-transposed copies of
the notes you play will be added to the arpeggio (as many octaves as
fit within the range).
Thru If this is activated, the notes sent to the arpeggiator (i.e. the chord you
play) will be passed through the plug-in (sent out together with the ar-
peggiated notes).
Play Order If the “Order on” playmode is selected, you can use these “slots” to
specify a custom playback order for the arpeggio notes:
Each slot corresponds to a position in the arpeggio pattern. For each
slot, you specify which note should be played on that position by select-
ing a number. The numbers correspond to the keys you play, counted
from the lowest pressed key.
So, if you play the notes C3-E3-G3 (a C major chord), “1” would
mean C3, “2” would mean E3, and “3” would mean G3. Note that you
can use the same number in several slots, creating arpeggio patterns
that are not possible using the standard play modes.
