Polyphonic Sequences
MeloDICER can generate patterns with up to three voices. Voices 2 and 3 are only available via MEX3’s MIDI
output.
Like the first voice, the second and third voice depend on the settings of the RHYTHM and MELODY sections.
MELODY
Voices 2 and 3 share the settings of the Octave Range and Semitone Probability Faders. This makes it easy to get
sequences that follow an intended chord structure.
There are some logical limitations:
• If you raise only one semitone probability fader and the pitch range is just one octave or lower, meloDICER
cannot generate a second or third voice.
• Voices 2 and 3 could generate the same pitch as voice one. In this case, meloDICER sends only one MIDI note.
RHYTHM
All three voices share the RHYTHM section’s NOTE VALUE, VARIATION and LEGATO parameters. But you will
have to set REST individually for each voice. This works as described in chapter "REST" on page 9 for voice 1:
• The more you turn the knob clockwise, the higher the probability for musical rests (= fewer notes).
• The far-right position means 100% musical rest probability. As a result, you won’t hear any note at all.
• The far-left position means 0% musical rest probability. As a result, all events are note events. There won’t be
any musical rest at all.
