Random Sequencer Pattern (Record+Reason)
This menu item is used for the Thor synthesizer. It will assign random values to the pattern sequencer steps, but only
for the property selected with the Edit knob. For example, if “Note” is the edited property, only the note pitches will be
randomized; leaving velocity values, lengths, durations and curves intact.
D Randomized note pitches will be kept within the range set with the Octave switch.
D The “Steps” setting (pattern length) will not be changed by randomizing.
D Steps outside the current pattern length will not be affected.
Randomize Pattern (Record+Reason)
This menu item is used for the Redrum, Matrix and RPG-8 Arpeggiator (when the Pattern editor is activated).
The Randomize Pattern function create random patterns. These can often be great starting points and help you get
new ideas.
! Note that for the Matrix, Randomize affects both the Gate, Note and Curve CV!
Randomize Drum (Record+Reason)
The Randomize Drum functions creates random patterns for the selected drum sound channel in the Redrum drum
machine.
Alter Pattern (Record+Reason)
This menu item is used for the Redrum, Matrix and RPG-8 Arpeggiator (when the Pattern editor is activated).
The Alter Pattern function modifies existing patterns. Note that there must be something in the pattern for the func-
tion to work on - using an Alter function on an empty pattern will not do anything.
! Note that for the Matrix, Alter affects both the Gate, Note and Curve CV!
Alter Drum (Record+Reason)
This function modifies existing patterns for the selected drum sound in Redrum. Note that there must be something
in the pattern for that channel for the function to work - using an Alter function on an empty pattern will not do any-
thing.
Invert Pattern (Record+Reason)
This menu item is used for the RPG-8 Arpeggiator device, when the Pattern editor is activated. This inverts the pat-
tern, so that active steps become rests and vice versa.
Arpeggio Notes to Track (Record+Reason)
This menu item is used for rendering the arpeggio from an RPG-8 to actual note clips. For this to work, you must
have recorded chords or notes on the RPG-8 track and set the locators (so that an arpeggio is generated when you
start playback from the left locator).
“Arpeggio Notes to Track” will create a note clip between the locators on the selected track, containing the gener-
ated arpeggio notes. You can then mute the original note clip(s) on the RPG-8 track and edit the rendered arpeggio
notes as usual.
