DIRECTION
The DIRECTION switch selects the order in which arpeggiated or sequenced
notes are played. The same setting may have a different result based on
whether the Arpeggiator or Sequencer is active.
ORD (Order)
ARPEGGIATOR
Arpeggiated notes will play in the same order they were originally played on
the keyboard.
SEQUENCER
Sequenced notes will play in the same order they were originally recorded.
FW / BW (Forward / Backward)
ARPEGGIATOR Mode
Arpeggiated notes will first play in the same order they were originally played
on the keyboard from beginning to end. Those same notes will then be played
in reverse order from end to beginning.
SEQUENCER Mode
Sequenced notes will first play in the same order they were originally recorded
from beginning to end. Those same notes will then be played in reverse order
from end to beginning.
NOTE: In the FW / BW position, the last note of the forward pattern will be played
again as the first note of the backward pattern; the last note of the backward pattern
will be played again as the first note of the forward pattern.
RND (Random)
ARPEGGIATOR Mode
Arpeggiated notes will play back in random order.
SEQUENCER Mode
Sequenced notes will play back in random order.
NOTE: In the RND position, each sequence step is played as a random event, so
steps with rests, ties, and ratchets may cause the sequence to play in an unexpected
rhythmic pattern.
OCT / BANK (Octave Range / Sequence Bank Select)
The setting of the OCT / BANK switch produces different results, depending
on whether the Arpeggiator or the Sequencer has been selected. With the
MODE switch set to the ARP position, the OCT / BANK switch specifies the
number of octaves that will be used to play an arpeggiated pattern. With the
MODE switch set to the SEQ or REC position, this switch specifies which of the
three Banks of sequences is selected.
