DESCRIPTION
SYNC
SYNSRC
Sync Source
Allows you to select the clock source that will
drive the sequencer.
LOCAL
Uses the sequencer’s dedicated clock for its
tempo.
CLOCK
Uses the A6’s global Clock for tempo.
MIDI
Uses an external MIDI device for tempo.
STPSIZ
Size of
Sequencer Steps
2 ··· 11904
Allows you to designate the size of each
sequencer step. The default is a quarter note or
24 clock ticks. Using the soft pot to adjust this
parameter gives you the most commonly used
values. The increment and decrement buttons
allow finer adjustment for odd values.
Note that in Mix Mode, each mix channel’s step
size setting will override the program’s step size
setting. This allows you to have a different step
size setting for a program in Mix Mode than in
Program Mode.
About Tempos and STPSIZ
The
SYNC page features a tempo display that can help you match the speed of the
clock to musical values. This display calculator assumes that 24 ticks equals a
quarter note, and that the music is in 4/4 time. If
SYNSRC is set to CLOCK, and
STPSIZ is set to 24, the display will read:
Qtr Note
and each step of the sequencer will last a quarter note. If you want the sequencer to
play twice as fast, set
STPSIZ to 12 and the display will read 8th Note.
If you want odd step values, use the increment and decrement buttons to adjust the
length by one tick increments.
MOD Parameters
The modulation page for the sequencer is identical to the
SYNC/MOD page for the
Clock. See page 71.
