Velocity
Tie
This function extends the duration of notes beyond the values given in the
duration field by “tying” notes together. You can tie together any number
of consecutive steps.

IMPORTANT: The Gate
function in the arpeggiator
MUST be set to 100% when
using the tie function, otherwise
the tied note is retriggered
instead of extended.
Rest
Instead of playing a note, you can define the step as a Rest. The Duration
parameter specifies the length of the rest. Rests can be tied together to form
longer rests.
Skip
This command simply removes the step from the pattern. The Skip feature
makes it easy to remove an unwanted step without rearranging the entire
pattern. You’ll be happy to know that the velocity, duration and repeat
parameters are remembered if you decide to put the step back later.
End
This command signals the end of the pattern. Any steps programmed after
the step containing the End command are ignored.
Velocity Each note in the pattern plays using either a preset velocity value (from
1 through 127), or using the actual velocity of the played note (ply).
Note: Velocity values will not have an effect on the sound unless velocity is
programmed to do something in the preset.
