Cirklon Sequencer User Manual
When an accumulator is cleared its reverse switch is also turned off, so they normally have
no effect.
But if you configure the mode to either “rvtz” or “rvbp”, when the accumulator reaches its
limit, the reverse switch is inverted – that is, if the switch is off, it is turned on; or if it is on, it
is turned off.
The effect of turning on the reverse switch is that any relative offset to the accumulator is
subtracted from the accumulator value, rather than added to it - the effect of a relative offset
is reversed.
Let’s look at what this does to the example pattern.
You have a four note arpeggio, with “offset note rel” assigned to aux A.
Aux A is adding 12 to the note accumulator every time step 1 is passed.
With the default accumulator config, the note accumulator rises to 36 (3 octaves up), then is
reset to zero.
To change the mode, press the soft-key below it on the display – encoder 8.
Each press advances to the next option, so if you press encoder 8 twice, it will step from rtz to
clip to rvtz.
This table shows what happens now:
When the offset event on the step shown in bold attempts to push the accumulator beyond its
limit, the reverse switch is turned on, and the offset value is subtracted from the accumulator.
The notes start shifting downward by an octave each time.
This will continue until the accumulator value reaches zero.
