Adding Arpeggio
The Arpeggiator command applies an arpeggio to its input and plays it
back in real time. You can make it arpeggiate with a swing feel, or straight
and staccato or legato, vary its speed and direction, and specify its range.
The parameters used to specify the arpeggiator effect are as follows:
Parameter/Option... Meaning...
Swing (%) The distortion of timing used to produce a swing feel.
A value of 0% indicates a straight rendition; negative
and positive values produce distortion of the timing
grid. For more information on swing, see Swing.
Rate The delay between successive notes.
Units The units used to specify the delay. You may specify
delay in ticks, in milliseconds, or as a note duration.
Legato (%) The smoothness of the notes of the arpeggio. 1
percent plays each notes and releases it instantly. 99
percent plays each note up to the start of the next
note.
Path The direction of the arpeggio. Options are Up, Up
(arpeggios go up), Up, Down (arpeggios go up, then
down), Down, Down (arpeggios go down), Down, Up
(arpeggios go down, then up).
