7: S–ARP (Arpeggiator) 7–1: ASSIGN
125
7: S–ARP (Arpeggiator)
Here you can specify how the arpeggiator will function in
Sequencer mode. These settings can be ajusted for each song. In
Sequencer mode (as in Combination mode), you can run the two
arpeggiators simultaneously.
This allows you to apply different arpeggio patterns to two sounds
that have been split across the keyboard, or use velocity to switch
between two different arpeggio patterns, etc.
In Sequencer mode, the musical data generated by the arpeggiator
during song track realtime-recording can be recorded.
It is not possible to set independent tempos for the
arpeggiator and the sequencer.
When MIDI Clock (G–MIDI>BASIC) is set to Internal, the
arpeggiator can be synchronized to the internal sequencer.
When you turn on the arpeggiator and press the SEQUENCER
(START/STOP) button, the arpeggiator will
synchronize with the sequencer.
When you press the SEQUENCER (START/STOP)
button, the arpeggiator and sequencer will both stop. If you
wish to stop only the arpeggiator, press the ARP button to turn
it off.
When the arpeggiator Key Sync is off, you can turn on the ARP
button and play the keyboard to start the arpeggiator during the
pre-count before realtime recording begins. That way, the
arpeggiator performance will be recorded from the beginning of
the pattern when recording starts.
When MIDI Clock is set to External MIDI or External USB,
clock messages transmitted from an external MIDI device
can perform the same type of control.
Even in this case, you can start/stop using the KROSS’s
SEQUENCER (START/STOP) button.
7–1: ASSIGN
Track 01...16 (Track Number)
To select a track, place the cursor at one of the following parame-
ters, and use the cursor buttons to switch tracks. (see page
105)
ARP Assign [Off, A, B]
This individually assigns arpeggiator A or arpeggiator B to each
track 1–16. When the ARP button is turned on, the arpeggiator
specified for each track will run, subject to the Arpeggiator Run
A, B settings and the settings made here.
Off: Neither arpeggiator will run.
A: Enables Arpeggiator A. Use the Arpeggiator A page to select
the arpeggio pattern and set the parameters.
B: Enables Arpeggiator B. Use the Arpeggiator B page to select
the arpeggio pattern and set the parameters.
For tracks that you wish to record in real time, select either
arpeggiator A or B. If you specify an arpeggiator for two or more
tracks, the arpeggiator will play each of the tracks you specify.
You can set A and B to two different MIDI channels, and control
one from the keyboard and the other from an external MIDI device
connected to MIDI IN. You can also use multi-track recording
(Multi REC) to simultaneously record the note data that is
generated from the two arpeggiators.
Example 1)
On tracks 1 and 2, set MIDI Channel (SEQ> MIDI) to 01 and
Status (SEQ> PROG) to INT. Assign arpeggiator A to track 1 and
arpeggiator B to track 2, and check Arpeggiator Run A, B. In
Track Select, choose Track01.
With the ARP button off, play the keyboard and tracks 1 and 2 will
sound simultaneously.
When you turn on the ARP button and play the keyboard,
arpeggiator A will run for track 1 and arpeggiator B will run for
track 2.
Example 2)
For tracks 1, 2 and 3, set the MIDI Channel (SEQ> MIDI) to 01,
02, and 03 respectively, and set Status (SEQ> PROG) to INT.
Assign arpeggiator A to tracks 1 and 2, and arpeggiator B to track
3. Check the Arpeggiator Run A, B setting.
•In Track Select, choose Track01.
Playing the keyboard when the ARP button is off will play the
sound assigned to track 1.
Playing the keyboard when the ARP button is on will cause
arpeggiator A to run for tracks 1 and 2, and produce sound for
both tracks.
•In Track Select, choose Track02.
Playing the keyboard when the ARP button is off will play the
sound assigned to track 2.
Playing the keyboard when the ARP button is on will cause
arpeggiator A to run for tracks 1 and 2, and produce sound for
both tracks.
