VELOCITY TO VOL select how velocity will aect volume when playing the Sound on the [PADS] or
with an external MIDI unit.
• OFF means velocity will not aect the volume of the Sound.
• ON means the volume will correspond linearly to velocity.
VELOCITY MOD gives access to a menu where up to five PARAMETER page parameters can be
assigned to the velocity mod parameter. Open the menu by pressing [YES]. Use DATA ENTRY knobs
A-D to select parameters from any of the PARAMETER pages. Press [YES] to confirm selection. Use
DATA ENTRY knobs E-H to set the modulation depth for the chosen parameters. Use the TRACK
LEVEL knob to set the overarching velocity range.
AFTERTOUCH gives access to a menu where up to five PARAMETER page parameters can be as-
signed to the [PADS] or external MIDI unit aftertouch command. Open the menu by pressing [YES].
Use DATA ENTRY knobs A-D to select parameters from any of the PARAMETER pages. Press [YES]
to confirm selection. Use DATA ENTRY knobs E-H to set the modulation depth for the chosen param-
eters. Use the TRACK LEVEL knob to set the overarching velocity range.
SMP: displays the full name of the sample loaded to the active track.
LEGACY FX SEND will when checked lower the FX send levels slightly to make Sounds made for an
earlier Analog Rytm OS sound as they were intended.
• Copy, clear and paste operations are available in the SOUND BROWSER and SOUND
MANAGER.
• Use the TRACK LEVEL knob for faster scrolling in the SOUND BROWSER and
SOUND MANAGER.
10.6 PLAYING A SOUND
Press [PLAY MODE] to use the [PADS] to trigger the drum track Sounds, and then tap any of the [PADS]
to play the Sounds of the active kit. The <PADS> will briefly flash when pressed. Each pad is velocity sensi-
tive, so a gentle yap and a decisive stab on the pad will produce drum sounds of dierent intensities.
Use [FUNC] + [PADS] to trig the Sound at the velocity set on the trig page for each track (the VEL param-
eter). You can also set the pads to trigger with a fixed velocity. For more information, please see “11.8 FIXED
VELOCITY” on page 42.
The [TRIG] keys 1-12 can also be used to play the Sounds of the twelve tracks, also at the velocity set on
the trig page for each track.
Press and hold [RTRG], then press and hold any of the [PADS] to continuously retrig the track Sound for
as long as the pad is held. Play drum rolls in this manner on one or several of the pads, each with its own
assignable retrig settings. Pressure controls retrig velocity. Aftertouch is disabled during retrig. See “11.4
RETRIG MENU” on page 39.
Sounds that are designed for aftertouch play may be played by tapping and then pressing a pad without lift-
ing your finger in between. Settings controlling this can be found in the SOUND menu. For more information,
please see “10.5 SOUND MENU” on page 31.
PLAYING A SOUND WITH AN EXTERNAL MIDI UNIT
Besides using the [PADS], the Sounds can also be played using an external MIDI controller or keyboard
connected to Analog Rytm MKII. Which MIDI tracks the voices respond to are set up in the MIDI CHAN-
NELS menu, covered in the section “14.5.3 CHANNELS” on page 58.
10.7 EDITING A SOUND
Select one of the drum tracks for editing by pressing [TRK] + one of the [PADS]. The information bar on
the screen, showing which kit is loaded, will briefly change to show the name of the drum track Sound.
When editing, the MACHINE, Sound and sample settings of the track can be changed, and any changes
made will be stored as part of the active kit.
Adjust the overall volume level of the active drum track with the TRACK LEVEL knob.
The current MACHINE in use will determine which SYNTH parameters will be available for Sound modula-
tion. Press [FUNC] + [SRC] or quickly press the [SRC], key twice to open a menu for MACHINE selection.
