Rhythm Sequence
The second RHYTHM parameter, Sequence, is only available in Arp mode. It gives you a way of
adding interesting rhythms to your arpeggiated notes. Select one of eight different sequences and
apply it to the arpeggiator sequence you are playing. Combine Sequence with the Rate parameter
to create a huge variety of rhythms at different tempos. If Rate is set to a basic or dotted value,
then Sequence applies a 16-step sequencer to the notes. If Rate is instead set to a triplet value,
then Sequence applies a 12-step sequencer to the notes.
You can switch sequences in real time during playback. For example, if sequence 1 is running and
you instead select sequence 2 after the fourth MIDI note in a pattern has been played back, then
sequence 2 starts when the fth MIDI note in the pattern is played back.
The Sequence setting includes the following values:
• Off, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
Rhythm Swing
The third RHYTHM parameter, Swing, is available in both Arp and Note Repeat mode. Adding
Swing to your note sequence can make it feel less quantized and sound more natural. Swing
works by introducing a delay to every second note in a sequence. Doing so often adds a certain
groove to the music.
Swing lets you set a value between 0% and 100%:
1. Set a value of 0% to play the note sequence without swing.
2. Increase the Swing value to add swing by delaying every second note. The delay length is a
percentage of the current step size.
Using Swing in combination with the Gate parameter adds further variations in note duration. For
example, if Gate is set to 100%, Komplete Kontrol sends a MIDI note-off message before each note
and plays back the sequence legato. If Gate is set to values larger or smaller than 100%, then notes
will be scaled after the value of the Swing parameter has been applied, leaving the groove intact.
Other Parameters
The OTHER parameters Octaves, Dynamic, and Gate allow you to change the range of available
notes for the arpeggiator sequence, as well as their velocity and length.
