LOCBPM
Beats per Minute
.46 ··· 600 The speed or rate of the Arpeggiator displayed
in “bpm” or beats per minute. This setting is
independent of any TEMPO setting for the Clock
or Sequencer, and is only effective when the
Arpeggiator is set to LOCAL in the SYNC menu.
LENGTH 0 ··· 100 Modifies the Release 2 times of the envelopes.
OCTAVE -10 ··· /+1`0 Sets the number of octaves the arpeggio will
play. 0 indicates that a held chord will only
arpeggiate the notes actually held. Positive
values transpose the arpeggio up that number
of octaves; negative values transpose the
arpeggio down that number of octaves.
CENTER OFF, ON Places the held notes in the “center” of the
arpeggio: if the OCTAVE parameter above is set
to 3, the arpeggio will play three octaves above
and below the chord played.
TYPE Determines the direction the Arpeggiator will play notes:
FORWRD The arpeggio will play notes in order from the
lowest to the highest, and additional octaves (as
set in the OCTAVE parameter, above) from
lowest to highest.
REVERS The arpeggio will play notes in reverse order
from the highest to the lowest, and additional
octaves (as set in the OCTAVE parameter, above)
from highest to lowest.
RNRINC Rock-n-Roll Inclusive – the sequence will play the
arpeggio forward then in reverse, including the
end notes twice: once when completing the
forward direction and once when starting the
reverse direction.
RNRCIR Rock-n-Roll Circle – the sequence will play the
arpeggio forward then in reverse, but will not
play the end notes twice as in RNRINC.
CHORD OFF, ON When off, a held chord arpeggiates as single
notes. When on, a held chord is heard as a
chord along with its arpeggiated notes.
