Click the Pattern button to open the Arpeggiator pattern parameters.
The Pattern parameters are divided into two distinct functional modes: Live and Grid. The modes are mutually exclusive, so turning on one turns off the other. It also provides a unique Live Capture to Grid facility.
When Grid mode is active, it controls the arpeggio velocity, cycle length, step length, rests, ties, and chords. All live input of available grid parameters, such as velocities, is ignored.
When you switch to Live mode, the arpeggio performance is controlled live by your input. For example, the velocities of arpeggiated notes are determined by the way you played them. Any existing grid values are retained but are disabled until you return to Grid mode.
Note: When you capture a live performance, grid values are not retained.
Live button: Turn on Live mode. See Arpeggiator Live mode.
Arrow button (Live mode only): Capture the currently playing velocities, rests, ties, and chords. Grid mode is automatically turned on and the captured performance can be edited in the grid. See Arpeggiator Grid mode.
Grid button: Turn on Grid mode.
