19.1. ARPEGGIATOR 276

parameter effectively rotates this circle counter-clockwise one note at a time, changing

where in the pattern play begins.

With the Repeats parameter, the pattern can be set to repeat a specied number of times

until it is retriggered. A setting of inf will repeat the pattern indenitely. Hint: This

feature provides an excellent way of emulating the strum of a guitar or playing a chord as

an arpeggio once or twice. Another interesting effect can be achieved by combining this

feature with the Retrigger parameter, which we will explain in a moment. This can be used

to create rhythmically generated arpeggios separated by pauses.

The Retrigger parameter resets the pattern so that it starts again from the beginning.

Retriggering can be deactivated (Off), set to occur when new notes are pressed (Note) or

set to occur at a specied song position or beat-time (Beat). Beat retriggering can be

specied in terms of notes or bars and is aligned with song position. An LED in the upper

right corner of the section indicates when the pattern has been retriggered.

19.1.2 Transposition and Velocity Sections

The pattern generated by Arpeggiator can be transposed; the device's transposition controls

allow forcing this transposition into a specic major or minor key or (using the Transpose

chooser's Shift option) doing it in semitones. The distance between transposition steps is

set in scale intervals (for Major and Minor transposition) or semitones (for Shift transposition)

with the Distance control. Using the Steps parameter, you can choose the number of times

the sequence is transposed: A setting of 8 will transpose the sequence a total of eight times,

playing it in higher notes each time.

The dynamics of Arpeggiator are controlled using the velocity section. With Velocity set

to On and Target set to 0, for example, the sequence will gradually fade out, eventually

reaching 0 velocity. The Decay control sets the amount of time Arpeggiator takes to reach

the Target velocity. With Retrigger activated, retriggering of the sequence will also retrigger

the velocity slope.
