Retrigger Mode
Here you can determine whether the sequence restarts when you play a note. The
Retrigger Mode parameter is only available when Sync mode is set to “Off” or “Tempo
+ Retrig”. The following parameters are available:
Slope
Depending on the setting you select here, the step modulator jumps from step to step
or ramps between the steps. You can define a slope for rising, falling or all edges of
the steps. The setting “None” produces hard steps. Use the Slope Amount parameter
to set the time it takes to ramp from one step to the other. The following settings are
available:
Amount
When Slope is set to “Rising”, “Falling” or “All”, the Amount parameter determines the
time it takes to ramp from one step to the other. The higher the setting, the smoother
the transitions between steps.
Step
Use this to select a step. The Level text field updates accordingly.
Level
This shows the level of the currently selected step.
Snap
When Snap is activated, the level of each step can only be adjusted in quantized
steps of 1/12th. This feature can be used to produce modulations in steps of
semitones, for example.
Producing Modulations in Steps of Semitones
To produce modulations in steps of semitones, proceed as follows:
1. On the StepM subpage, activate the Snap option.
2. In the Modulation Matrix, assign the Step Modulator to Pitch (see below).
3. Set the Modulation Depth to +12.
Now, the levels of the steps represent intervals in semitones.
4. Go back to the step modulator and adjust each step to the new interval.
Option Description
Off The sequence is not restarted. Instead, it resumes playback at the
last position when you released the key.
First Note The sequence restarts when a note is triggered and no other notes
are already held.
Each Note The sequence restarts each time a note is triggered.
Option Description
None Hard Steps.
Rising Only rising edges are ramped.
Falling Only falling edges are ramped.
All All edges are ramped.
