11.5. Build a multi-octave arpeggio
Previously we explained that the
allows you to keep the arpeggiator
running after you take your fingers off the pads.
But there’s a second use for the Hold function: when Hold mode is active, you can keep
adding notes to an arpeggio as long as you continue holding down at least one pad.
♪
: As you go through the following section, don’t forget: after you let go of all of the pads the arpeggio
that’s playing will be replaced as soon as you press another pad.
11.5.1. Add up to 16 notes
You can add as many as 16 notes to your arpeggio. Here’s an example of how to do it.
• Activate the Hold function (hold Shift, press the On button)
♪
: Keep at least one pad down at all times until the final step.
• Press one or more pads; the arpeggio will play those notes.
• Keep at least one pad down and then press the Oct+ button.
• Add more notes the arpeggio from the higher octave.
• Being sure to keep at least one pad pressed, press the Oct- button.
• Add more notes the arpeggio from the lower octave, and so on.
• You can keep adding notes to the arpeggio for quite a while: the limit is 16 notes.
When you are done adding notes, you may release all pads. The multi-octave arpeggio will
continue until you press another pad or stop the arpeggiator.
♪
: It’s possible to let go of the original note(s) at any stage in the process as long as you keep holding
down at least one of the new notes you add.
