Tempo Section
In the Tempo section, you can set the playback speed for the arpeggiator or synchronize playback to the tempo of the host.
- Sync
-
Synchronizes the phrase to the tempo of your host application.
NoteIn addition, you can set Restart Mode to Sync to Host. This aligns the phrase with the beats and measures of your host application.
- Tempo
-
If Sync is deactivated, you can use the Tempo control to set the internal playback speed of the arpeggiator. The playback speed of the phrase is specified in BPM.
If Sync is activated, the Tempo parameter is not available.
- Loop
-
Allows you to play the phrase in a loop.
- Tempo Scale
-
Defines the rate at which notes are triggered, that is, the speed at which the phrase is running. In addition to the Tempo parameter, this gives you further control over the playback speed. You can specify a value in fractions of beats. You can also set dotted and triplet note values.
For example, if you change the Tempo Scale setting from 1/16 to 1/8, the speed is cut in half. If you set it to 1/32, the speed is doubled.
- Groove Quantize
-
To adapt the timing of a phrase to an external MIDI file, you can drop this MIDI file on the Groove Quantize drop field.
The Groove Quantize Depth parameter to the right of the drop field determines how accurately the phrase follows the timing of the MIDI file.
