If
Cloning is enabled, then the
Rhythm
determines the basic
behavior
of
the
Cyclone:
The
Cyclone generally behaves like a traditional
sequencer, passively recording the
new
note
and
rhythm data
and
echoing the notes in real-time.
The
Cyclone records the notes only (and retaining the
prvious
rhythm
information), without echoing the
performance itself, yet actively Cloning the
new
notes.

The
Cyclone
records in "Step
Mode",
with the
"Step
Time"
advanced by pressing any key in the Control
Zone
and the "Step Size" equal to the Value
of
the
Auto-correct Step Size
(AC)
parameter.
The
new
note
and
rhythm
data is recorded and echoed.
•
Rhythm
events are recorded only
if
Cloning
in the Recorded
or
Live
Trigger
Rhythms
while Recording. A rhythm
event
contains the note-on
and
note-off
times associated with a singe key press.
The
resolution
of
the timing data is the
same
as
MIDI
timing clocks,
24
pulses-per-quarter-note.
The
note-on times
only
are quantized according to the Auto-correct
(AC)
setting when recorded;
the actual note-on time is not recorded. A Recording may be up to
64
beats
long
and
contain
up
to 32 events. Any events past this
maximum
are
not
recorded.
• Note
data
is always recorded
except
when notes are played in an inaudible
Control
Zone
(see
chpter
12), in which
case
it is recorded as a
Rest
if
not
recording rhythm events
and
ignored otherwise. Note
data
includes both the
MIDI
note #
and
the note-on velocity. A
Rest
is a special
kind
of
note
which
is
treated as a normal
Source
note in all respects,
except
that it is
muted
when
Cloned.
This
allows breaking
up
of
Rhythms
in predictable ways.
Up
to
32
notes can be recorded,
and
any notes
past
this
maximum
are neither recorded
nor
echoed.

If
1) recording
rhythm
events in real-time (e.g. Recorded
Rhythm);
2) the
Record/Hold
Mode
(rH)
is
Add
(Ad);
and
3)
Cycle
is on, then a special
"Loop-in-Record"
mode
is active.
In this mode, the
Cyclone
stays in
Record
indefinitely, allowing
repeated
cyclic overdubs to previously recorded note and rhythm data
similar
to
most
drum
machines.
Notes
being held when the End Beat time
occurs
are muted
and
recorded with a
note-off
time equal to the End Beat.
