Global Functions
Global Parameter Set
78
The ÒDrum SyncÓ parameter has a range of 5-50ms and OFF. To
use drum sync, select a value other than OFF (10-20ms is a good
start), set the Arp Clock (Global Parameter 8) to Int., and plug a
sensor or pedal into Pedal 1 as described above. As long as there
are no trigger events, the internal clock will run just as before
with its tempo set by Arpeggiator parameter 1 and values sent to
destination #53.
Once two trigger events closer together than 2.5 quarter-note
beats are seen, the tempo will change to track the trigger events.
If there is a pause in the triggers greater than 2.5 beats, the
tracking stops until another pair of events is seen. Convergence
to the tap tempo is fairly rapid - the maximum adjustment per
trigger is 50% either way.
The ÒDrum SyncÓ parameter value actually controls the duration
of a Òdead timeÓ after each trigger. During the dead time, another
trigger cannot be recognized. This can be used to eliminate
double-triggering due to noise and echoes when using the drum
trigger.
RBN Dir
You can set the RibbonÕs direction to Right or Left. If the direction
is Right, you send higher Controller values toward the Right end
of the Ribbon (the end with the cable). If the direction is Left, you
send higher Controller values toward the left end of the Ribbon.
WeÕve assumed that you will place the Ribbon so that as you face
it, its cable comes out of the right end. However, you can turn the
Ribbon the other way, in which case you may want to set RBN
Dir to Left.
