Layer
This option lets you overdub a second arpeggiation over a latched arpeggiator
sequence.
1. Switch On-O/Rate on, hold some notes, then press Latch/Transpose to
latch them into the sequence.
2. Press Arpeggiator Option Select until the LAYER display appears.
3. Set LAYER to "ON" with the slider.
4. Hold down some other keys.
The new keys are arpeggiated while the rst arpeggiator sequence continues
unaected. If the two arpeggiations are of dierent lengths, interesting note
patterns occur which do not repeat as often as either of the two individual
sequences.
5. When nished overdubbing, switch LAYER o with the slider.
Any keys played are no longer arpeggiated. LAYER can be switched on/o as
many times as desired.
Note: If the arpeggiator mode is set to AUTO LATCH or EXTEND, the
overdubbed notes are remembered when the arpeggiator is stopped.
Rests
This option lets you insert rests in arpeggiation for syncopation. When the
RESTS option is set to "on", the top C on the VS keyboard is interpreted by
the arpeggiator as a rest. If the top C is needed in an arpeggiation, simply set
RESTS to "o".
If the arpeggiator split option is set to "DUAL" (left and right sides of the
keyboard arpeggiate separately), then the lowest C becomes the "rest key" for
the left arpeggiator, and top C becomes the "rest key" for the right arpeggiator.
This allows both arpeggiations to contain rests.
RESTS can be switched on/o at any time, as needed.
Clocks/Step
This option can be thought of as a "coarse" control for the arpeggiator rate.
The CLOCKS/STEP value determines the number of internal or external clocks
needed to step the arpeggiator. The arpeggiator rate is still adjusted from the
main arpeggiator display, but the range changes. The higher the CLOCKS/
STEP setting, the slower the arpeggiator rate range.
