SPECTRALIS 2
Next select a note-line (TGrp1) with the first encoder and set the values for
pitch, length and velocity in the display menu. By hitting numeric buttons 1-
16, you can copy the defined parameterset to the corresponding stepnumbers.
If you want to erase one of the steps, simply push the according numeric button
again.
If you want to change an existing step, adjust the values in the display and push the
desired numeric button again. The step won’t be erased but changed, if it's values
differ from the display parameterset.
In this mode you can additionally change the pitch of the steps with encoders 1-16
3.5.3 Option 2: Setting pitch, length, probability and dynamic value
separately
On menu-page 1/7 you may already have noticed a little arrow pointing upwards in
front of the entries “Pitch”, “Length” and “Velocity”. This arrow indicates, that there
is an additional menu page which you can access by pushing the according
encoderbutton.
Changing the pitch
Push the encoder button (Note). The following menu will open:
1/4: Pitch->TGrp1 Stp:01-16
Seq:L11 Pitch:A3 [SetAll]
In this menu you can determine the pitch, which you can apply to individual
steps by pushing the according numeric buttons 1-16 or use as a global overwrite
for all steps by using control button [SetAll]. In the menu all numeric buttons
with a parameter value different from the displayed value will blink. Buttons
with conforming value will be lit.
You will find this blink/lit display in all of the following menus.
Changing the trigger-probability
Using the [Page-Up]-button will get you to the next menu-page:
2/4:Probability->TGrp1 Stp:01-16
Seq:L11 Prob:100% [SET All]
In this menu page you can adjust the probability for the triggering of a note
separately for each step. At 100% the note will be triggered during each pass.
The lower the set value the less the probability that the note will actually be
triggered. Use the numeric buttons to copy the value displayed to additional
steps. You will also be able to see in this menu as well which steps conform
with the value shown in the display by looking at the blink/lit indicator of the
numeric buttons . If the step value conforms the button will be lit (light on).
Using the button [SET ALL] the probability for all notes can be set to the same
value simultaneously.
