pattern steps, use the alpha wheel, alphanumeric pad, or plus/minus buttons to enter the note
shift amount for each step. Press More to see a second page for patterns with more than 24 steps.
You can insert a step with a value of “none” by entering -127 and then shifting down one more
step. A step with the value “none” causes the arpeggiator to play nothing for that step, allowing
you to create rhythmic patterns by using “none” to leave spaces. When the arpeggiator
determines the range of pattern notes played with the Limit parameter (see below,) steps with a
value of “none” will be calculated as a step value of 0.
Use the chan up/down buttons to change the direction in which pattern steps are played
(indicated by Up, Down, or Flat on the right of the top line.) With pattern direction set to Up, the
pattern plays as expected, starting at step one and moving up through each step towards step
48. With pattern direction set to Down, the pattern starts at step one, but then moves to the last
step and continues to move backwards through the steps down towards step 1. Additionally,
patterns set to Down base all notes after step one in the octave below the first note played. These
settings are most useful for arpeggiating chord patterns upwards or downwards from the root
note. Patterns set to Flat will not repeat in other octaves like those set to Up or Down
(depending on the Limit parameter.) Patterns set to Flat play without transposition, the Limit
parameter will not transpose the pattern but it can still restrict note range.
Press Delete to delete the pattern from memory. Press Rename to rename the pattern and save.
Pressing Save gives you the option to save the pattern or rename and save. To create a new
ShiftPatt, edit an existing pattern and choose Rename when saving. Press Exit to return to the
ARPEGGIATOR page. When exiting the editor, it will automatically give you the option to save
the pattern if changes have been made. For more detailed instructions on these functions, see
Saving and Naming on page 5-3.
