Arpeggiator Global (ArpGlobal)
With the ArpGlobal parameter, you can set each zone’s Arpeggiator to act as if they all have the
same parameters on the ARPZON page. In addition to
OFF
, there are as many ArpGlobal setting
as there are zones in the current setup. For example, in a seven-zone setup, you can select a
value of
OFF
, or
Arp 1–7
for ArpGlobal. The number of the ArpGlobal setting indicates which
zone’s Arpeggiator is being globalized. Thus, in this same seven-zone setup, with ArpGlobal set
to
Arp 4
, all seven zones will behave as specified by the ARPZON page parameters for zone 4.
Arpeggiator Sync (ArpSync)
Setting ArpSync to
Sync Mode
allows you to arpeggiate across zones boundaries. There are two
important points to keep in mind when using
Sync Mode
:
•
Make sure that the ARPZON keyranges of each zone that you want to sync cover the entire
keyboard, rather than covering the range of the current zone. If the ARPZON keyranges do
not coincide, then playing keys in separate zones will sound no different from having
ArpSync set to
Not in Sync
.
•
For “regular” arpeggios, make sure the Beats parameter settings on the ARPZON page of
each zone that you want to sync are the same. Different Beats values result in irregular—but
potentially very interesting—arpeggios.
Aux FX Channel
The Aux FX Channel determines the FX channel through which all of the zones in the current
setup are sent. For example, if a zone 2 in a setup has a program with
25 Basic Delay 1/8
as an
Aux FX, and is assigned to channel
5
, then setting the Aux FX Channel to
5
sends the programs
of all of the zones in the setup through zone 2’s Program’s Aux FX (i.e., through
25 Basic Delay
1/8
).
Mutes
The Mutes parameter gives you manual control over the behavior of the buttons above the
programmable sliders. There’s really only one case in which you’d need to worry about this
parameter: when you have a setup that contains both VAST programs and a KB3 program, and
you want the buttons to control KB3 features.
By default, the PC3 uses the Mute buttons (the buttons above the sliders on keyboard models) to
control the muting and unmuting of zones—which means you don’t have real-time control over
any KB3 features. Change the Mutes parameter to KB3 Control to use the Mute buttons as real-
time KB3 controllers. The white labeling above the buttons describes their functions.
