Arp/rhythm/chors triggered by Sequencer

28 Jan 2008, 11:40

I checked all the Q & A on this topic and want to see if I understand it correctly.

1. The sequencer cannot be used to play notes from a selected arp style which must be done manually.
2. The X8 will only sync/temp, start and stop with the sequencer if the Sync/temp switch is set to on with the Menu/System/sync tempo function.
3. The rhythm section will sync with the Arp if it is assigned to a part in a performance but will not start/stop with artp stop/stop and must be triggered manually.
4.It is not possible to prestore chords , arp styles or rhytm combinations (ie a Band in the Box type operation) other than to record and save them as midi data for later play along live performances.

1. The arp is a little sequencer on it's own, so yes, correct.

2. You mean sync the arp with the sequencer? If so, yes.

3. Yes.

4. You mean, recall certain settings of arp, rhythm machine and chord memory at the same time? This is possible if you save your stuff as an SVQ song. When you load it, everything will be there as it was when you savd it.

Thanks, it looks like I finally understand that part a little bit.
