SPECTRALIS 2
Setting the transpose settings for the current songstep
Press and hold the [Transpose]-button and select the desired transpose
setting with the Spectralis "Mini-Keyboard". Pressing the CFlat will
play the original pitch.
Setting the Solo-Settings of the current songstep
Press and hold the [Solo]-button and select the parts with the num-buttons
to specify the solo-seting for the current songstep.
Set repeats for the current songstep
With the encoder underneath the display you can set the number of times,
a songstep will be played. The length of a single songstep is dependent
on the pattern length you specified in the edit pattern section. Changing
the pattern length is described below. You may should specify the lengths
of all patterns before starting the song-chain editing. Otherwise you always
have to jump between songchain editor and pattern editor. It's much faster
and easier to do the pattern editing as the first job. By default, all patterns
are set to a length of 4 bars.
Truncate the beginning of a songstep pattern
Sometimes, you want a pattern play only a truncated version of itself.
The beginning truncate function allows to cut the beginning of a pattern
in steps of quarter notes.
Truncate the end of songstep pattern
Sometimes you want to truncate the end of an pattern in order to jump to
the next songstep earlier than after a completed pattern. The End truncate
function allows to truncate the end of an pattern in steps of quarter notes.
Navigate inside the songchain
Enter jumps to the next songstep. At the end of a song-chain, the display
reads New of XX. That means that the end of the song-chain was reached
and the song-chain editor added a new songstep at the end.
If you already have programmed some songsteps you can navigate back
and forth with the [Tempo/Shuttle]-encoder. By pushing the [Tempo/
Shuttle] encoder button the functionality of the encoder toggles between
Tempo and songstep selection.
Specifying the pattern length
Please select [Pattern] in the num button assignment section, select the
pattern, you want to change and press the Encoder button next to the
[Edit]-entry of the diplay menue. Now you see the following display
menu:
