Sequencer
Sequential
step through available settings and select either cas or nas. Your choice
depends on whether you were previously using CC or NRPN to send
MIDI controller data to your external device, as either setting will send
MIDI notes out. Choose cas if CC. Choose nas if NRPN.
3. Once you’ve chosen the desired setting, press the globals button again to
exit.
To control an external MIDI device:
1. Connect the MIDI or USB output of the Trigon-6 to the MIDI or USB
input of the external device, depending on which type of connection the
external device requires.
2. On the Trigon-6, press the globals button, then press program selector
button 9 (midi out) to select nid (midi) or usb (usb).
3. Press the globals button again to exit the Global menu.
4. On the external device, set the MIDI Channel and MIDI Receive port to
match the Trigon-6.
5. Hold down a chord on the Trigon-6 or start sequencer playback. The
external device will be triggered by the arpeggiated or sequenced notes.
Using the Sequencer in a Poly-Chained System
In a poly-chained system, the sequencer functions nearly the same as
it does in a non-poly-chained system. In other words, you can create a
single sequence of up to 64 steps with a maximum of six notes (6-note
chords) per step.
The 6 extra voices are simply added into the total pool of available
voices so that any notes with long release times are less likely to be cut
off as additional notes are played.
Additionally, the six extra voices can be used to play live along with the
sequence as it runs.
