17.4. RHYTHM Parameters
The RHYTHM parameters Rate, Sequence, and Swing allow you to create interesting rhythms for
the arpeggiator sequence.
The RHYTHM parameters Rate, Sequence, and Swing.
17.4.1. RHYTHM Rate
The first RHYTHM parameter, Rate, is available in both Arp and Note Repeat mode. On the key-
board, it is mapped to Knob 3 of the Control section in Arp Edit mode. It sets the beat of the Arpeg-
giator in relation to global tempo in musical values, ranging from 1/1 to 1/128. All note values (ex-
cept 1/1 and 1/128) are available as basic notes, dotted notes, and triplets. Dotted notes are 1.5
times longer than the corresponding basic notes. Triplets are 2/3 the duration of their correspond-
ing basic notes, so that e.g., three 1/4 notes are equal in duration to two basic 1/4 notes.
The Rate setting includes the following values:
• 1/1
• 1/2 Dotted (1/2 D)
• 1/1 Triplet (1/1 T)
• 1/2
• 1/4 Dotted (1/4 D)
• 1/2 Triplet (1/2 T)
• 1/4
• 1/8 Dotted (1/8 D)
• 1/4 Triplet (1/4 T)
• 1/8
• 1/16 Dotted (1/16 D)
• 1/8 Triplet (1/8 T)
• 1/16
• 1/32 Dotted (1/32 D)
• 1/16 Triplet (1/16 T)
