ArpeggiatorAn arpeggiator is a device that splits an incoming MIDI chord into its single notes andrepeats them rhythmically. Different sequence modes can be defined for the arpeggiator tocover a wide range of applications.In addition to the synthesis features, the MicroWave II/XT/XTk offers a separatelyprogrammable arpeggiator for every sound program. The arpeggiator can be usedindependently or synced to MIDI clock. It can play a wide range of different rhythmpatterns, including a user programmable.The arpeggiator uses an internal buffer that can store up to 20 notes. The buffer is clearedeach time a new chord is played. There are two ways of entering a chord:• Press all keys of the chord simultaniously.• Press and hold the first key of the chord. While holding this key, enter the otherkeys sequentially. After playing all keys, release the first key again. On one handthis method is practicable for playing difficult chords, on the other hand it isessential when using theas played setting of the Direction parameter. This settingallows you to create arpeggios in the sequence of played notes.m When you use the sound as part of a multi program, you can either use the sound’sarpeggiator described here, or the dedicated arpeggiator of the multi program’sinstrument. Use the instrument parameter Arpeggiator Active to select which one touse. As a default the sound’s arpeggiator is not activated and therefore no arpeggiowill be generated when turning on the arpeggiator here.Arpeggiator 1Arpeggiator 2Arpeggiator 3Arpeggiator User PatternActiveoff / on / holdEnables or disables the arpeggiator or activates thehold mode. Whenhold is activated,incoming MIDI chords generate continuous arpeggios even when the chord is released. TheMicroWave II/XT/XTk will continue to do so until you play a new chord or this parameter isset back tooff oron. You can also stop the arpeggiator by performing the panic function orsending an All Notes Off message from your sequencer.Position | Trigger03 | on [*-*--**-]Reset on Pattern Start | Lengthoff | 08Pattern |Direction|NoteOrder|Velocityon |alternate|as played|last noteActive | Tempo | Clock | Rangeon | 126 | 1/16 | 0468 User’s Manual MicroWave II • MicroWave XT • XTk |
