Little Phatty Arpeggiator

Post by JakeBrown » Sun Aug 19, 2012 9:20 am

Hey guys just a quick question and thought you'd be best to answer it.

I know i can save a patch with the arpeggiator settings, i was just wondering if you can save it so the arpeggiator is already turned on when you go to that patch. I'm playing for an artist where the bassline goes straight from arpeggiated to whole notes but turning it off stops the note from sounding. It's getting frustrating.

Any ideas?

Change the arp length to whole note or longer via midi CC.

You would need an external midi controller with buttons/knobs/faders you could assign that specific CC and value.

All the menu options need an external controller if you want easy access for live performance.

Another method I just thought of: Set up an identical patch with the arp length set to whole note. When you need to change the note length change presets. If they are saved right next to each other or you use performance sets it should be seamless. The arp in the newest OS does continue to run when presets are changed (On older OSs it would stop).
