Using rhythmic Wave Sequences
Creating rhythmic Wave Sequences
TocreatearhythmicWaveSequence:
1. OntheSeqParameterspage,settheModeto
Tempo.
ThismakestheWaveSequencesynchronizetothe
systemtempo,assetbyeithertheTempoknoborMIDI
Clock.
2. SetRuntoOn.
Thisisthedefaultsetting;theWaveSequencewill
movefromsteptostepautomatically
.
3.
SelecttheMultisamplesthatyou’dliketouse,and
settheStart,End,andLoopStart/Endstepsas
desired.
4. SettheLoopRepeatstoINF.
Thiswillmakethesequencerepeataslongasyouhold
thenote.
5. OntheStepParameterspage,usetheBaseNote
andMultiply(“x”)parameterstosettherhythmic
valuesfo
rea
chstep.
Forinstance,tocreateadottedeighthnote,settheBase
Noteto1/16,andMultiply(“x”)to3.
6. SettheStepXfadetimestorelativelyshortvalues,
suchas0–5ms.
Thispreservestheinitialtransientsofthesamples.

Doubling or halving the rhythmic pulse
Youmaysometimeswanttoslowdowna16th‐note
rhythmsothatitbecomes8th‐notesinstead,orvice
versa.The/2andx2buttonsmakethiseasy.
Pressthe/2buttontocuttheBaseNoteand/or
Multiplysettingsinhalf,sothat1/4notesbecome1/8
notes,1/8notesbe
come1/16
notes,andsoon.
Pressthex2buttontomultiplytheBaseNoteand/or
Multiplysettingsbytwo,sothat1/8notesbecome1/4
notes,1/4notesbecome1/2notes,andsoon.
Note:thesebuttonsonlyappearwhentheModeisset
toTempo.
Setting the tempo
EachProgram,Combi,andSonghasitsowntempo
setting.Youcanchangethetemposimplybyadjusting
thefront‐panelTEMPOknob,orbytappinginquarter‐
notesontheTAPTEMPObutton.
There’salsoaGlobalmodeparameterwhichletsyou
switchbetweenusingtheinternaltempoortempo
fromanexternalMIDIso
urce(suchasacomputer‐
basedsequencer).TosynctoanexternalMIDIsource:
1. PresstheGLOBALbuttontoenterGlobalmode.
2. SelecttheMIDItab.
3. UnderMIDISetup,settheMIDIClockparameter
asdesired.
InternalusesthetempostoredwiththeProgram,
Combi,orSong,andsetbytheTEMPOknob.
