User Manual

14.5.1 Main Mode
The first MAIN parameter is Mode. On the keyboard, it is mapped to Knob 1 of the Control
section when Arpeggiator Edit mode is selected. lt lets you select either Arp or Note Repeat.
Depending on your selection, a different set of Arpeggiator parameters will be available for fur-
ther editing.
The Mode setting consists of the following two modes:
▪ Arp mode, which generates arpeggiator sequences based on chords you play on the key-
board, or the output of the Scale engine. With ARP switched on and Mode set to Arp, any
chord you created using the Scale engine will play as an arpeggiated note sequence. In this
case, you only need to press one key on the keyboard to hear the arpeggiated notes play out
according to the selected scale.
▪ Note Repeat mode, which deactivates the Arpeggiator and instead repeats whichever note
is input until KOMPLETE KONTROL receives a MIDI note-off message. Use the parameters
Rate, Swing, and Gate to change the rhythm of the repeats.
14.5.2 Main Type
The second MAIN parameter, Type, is only available in Arp mode. On the keyboard, it is map-
ped to Knob 2 of the Control section when Arpeggiator Edit mode is selected. It sets the se-
quential order of the arpeggiated notes. Choose whether your arpeggiated chord should be
played from the root note and up, the other way around, or even simultaneously. Selecting Or-
der Played will play back the notes in the order you pressed down the corresponding keys on
the KOMPLETE KONTROL keyboard. Automating the Type parameter in the host can create in-
teresting variations and textures.
The Type setting includes the following values:
▪ Up
▪ Down
▪ Up & Down (UP-DOWN on the keyboard)
▪ Order Played (PLAYED on the keyboard)
▪ Chord
