Descriptions of Parameters
Setup Editor Parameters
5-19
Initial Tempo
The starting tempo of the arpeggiation, and the basis for the divisions created via the value of the
Beats parameter. Any physical controller assigned to send MIDI Tempo message can control the
arpeggiator tempo in real time.
The value for this parameter is relevant only if the value for the Clock parameter in the Global
menu has a value of Internal. If the value of Clock is External, the arpeggiator follows the tempo
of MIDI Clock signals (if any) received at the PC1’s MIDI In port. If no external Clock signal is
received, notes in the arpeggiator region do not play at all.
Duration
How long each arpeggiated note lasts. 100% is legato--no breaks between notes. The lower the
value, the more staccato the arpeggiation.
Velocity Mode (Vel Mode)
Determines how the attack velocity of latched notes affects the volume of arpeggiated notes.
There are Five possible values:
Fixed
All arpeggiated notes play at the same attack-velocity level, determined by the Fixed Vel
parameter.
Played
Each arpeggiated note plays at the attack-velocity level of its original latched note.
Last
All arpeggiated notes play at the attack-velocity level of the most recently-latched note.
Pressure
All arpeggiated notes play with attack velocities matching the current value of mono pressure
(aftertouch).
Ctrl 117
All arpeggiated notes play with attack velocities matching the current value of MIDI 117, either
from a physical controller on the PC1 or received at the MIDI In port.
Fixed Velocity (Fixed Vel)
When the value of Vel Mode is Fixed, sets the attack-velocity level for all arpeggiated notes.
Note Shift
The value of this parameter determines how much transposition, if any, gets applies to latched
notes each time the cycle of latched notes repeats. The transposition is cumulative, and continues
until it reaches the amount specified by the value for the Shift Limit parameter.
