RHYTHM
Unlike the pitch Sources, there
is
only one active Rhythm al anyone time
in
the Cyclone. but
there are three
to
choose from:
rC
PU
LS
LP
Recorded
Pulse
Live
The rhythm triggers are based on a previously input
(either
in
real
or
step-time) pattern
of
polyphonic
timing data in the record buffer.
If
there is no data,
there will be no triggers! Up to 32 timing events can
be recorded per Program,
as
outlined in
"Record/Hold".
The rhythm triggers are based on an internally-
generated pulse clock, with the pulse note value,
duration, and other characteristics defined by
parameters in the Timing Page.
The rhythm triggers are input live from the keyboard,
using the Control Zone.
LS refers to Live Single Triggers, which means a
trigger
is
only generated on the first
of
multiple
simultaneously held notes played
in
the Control
Zone.
LP
refers to Live Poly Trigger, in which a trigger is
generated for every note played in the Control Zone,
with overlapping allowed.
Once a rhythm trigger has been generated, the remaining questions to be answered
before notes can be generated are
1)
how many? and 2) which ones?
The
Mode
parameter provides the answer
to
the first, while the Order parameter takes care
of
the
second.
9.3
MODE
The Mode parameter specifies how many notes from the Source to play at a given
trigger, and allows several classes:

·P8
Proportional
Description
The number
of
Source notes played is based on the
recorded note groupings.
The number
of
Source notes played is fixed between
1 and 8 notes.
The number
of
Source notes to play at this trigger
is
proportional to the total number
of
Source notes with
a divisor
of
1 through
8.
AL
is
division
by
1.
