Key Select

The arpeggiator scans the keyboard and writes the keys that you press into a note buffer. Depending on the selected Key Mode, this note buffer is sorted either by pitch or in the order in which you play the keys. Key Select allows you to play back a defined key from the note buffer. You can set up Key Select for each individual step, which allows you to create very elaborate phrases.

• To access the Key Select values of the steps, click Show Transpose or Key Select to the left of the editor, so that a keyboard icon is shown.

• To switch between the available Key Select values for a step, click the value, and drag up/down, or use the scroll wheel.

  The following options are available:

  • P (Phrase) plays the note of the user phrase, according to the selected mode, for example, Up, Down, Up/Down 1, etc.

  • The settings 1 - 8 play the corresponding keys from the note list. Which key is played depends on the Key Mode setting. For example, if Key Mode is set to Sort, setting 1 plays the lowest key.

  • L (Last) always plays the last key from the note buffer. Depending on the Key Mode, this is the highest note or the last note in the note buffer.

  • A (All) plays all keys from the note buffer as a chord.
