Arpeggiator and sequence modes

The arpeggiator modes (options1-4) control the type of arpeggiation, and the sequence modes (options 5-8) control sequence related arpeggiations. One arpeggiator mode and one sequence mode can be selected simultaneously as well as only one of the two.

Normal mode (1)

When this mode is set, the arpeggiator works as it did with the Roland code. If the up direction is selected, notes are played in lowest note held to highest note held. If down is selected, the notes are played in highest note held to lowest note held. Up/down and down/up modes cause the notes to follow their respective directions.

Ordered mode (2)

Ordered arpeggiator mode causes arpeggiation to occur in the order the notes were played or recorded. If the up direction is selected, notes are played in first note played to last note played order. Conversely, if the down direction is selected, notes are played in the last note played to first note played order. Up/down and down/up modes cause the notes to follow their respective directions.

Ping-pong mode (3)

Notes are played in the order of first pressed, last pressed, second pressed, second to the last pressed, etc… For example, if the following notes were played and held and UP mode is selected:

C D E F G A B

Ping-pong mode would arpeggiate them as:

C B D A E G F C B D A E G F ….

Setting DOWN reverses this order and up/down and down/up modes cause the notes to follow as expected.

Random mode (4)

Notes are played in a completely random order. The Up/down settings will have no effect in random mode.

Sequence modes and options

The following four options cover the sequence modes. All sequence modes (settings 5-8) arpeggiate the recorded sequence and one must be recorded before these modes will function. When a sequence mode is enabled, the UP/DOWN directions and RANGE settings affect the sequence, and the sequence is transposed by the held notes in order from first to last played. If both an arpeggiator and a sequence mode are enabled, the UP/DOWN directions and the RANGE settings determine the transposition order of the sequence.
