Phase Change occurs. This can be used to simulate the
Triton Arpeggiator setting “Arpeggio Type”:
Up&Down.
4: B-cycle back from beginning of Phase
Allows “cycling” to occur at the beginning of the
playback portion of the Phase. For example, if the
movement specified by the Index Pattern causes the
index to go backwards beyond the beginning of the
playback portion, “cycling” will occur (the index will
automatically be jumped back into the playback
portion by a calculated amount). If the Phase “Length
Mode” is 0: AC-Actual, no cycling is performed and a
Phase Change will immediately occur.
5: E-cycle back from end of Phase
Allows “cycling” to occur at the end of the playback
portion of the Phase. For example, if the movement
specified by the Index Pattern causes the index to go
forwards beyond end of the playback portion,
“cycling” will occur (the index will automatically be
jumped back into the playback portion by a calculated
amount). If the Phase “Length Mode” is 0: AC-Actual,
no cycling is performed and a Phase Change will
immediately occur.
6: BE-cycle back from beginning & end of Phase
Allows the behavior described above at both ends of
the playback portion of the Phase.
Phase Specific Parameters
For each of the two Phases, a group of Phase Specific
Parameters allow control of some performance
characteristics within each Phase. If settings of the
Phase Pattern indicate a particular Phase is not being
used, the Phase Specific Parameters for that Phase will
not be operable.
Direction [0, 1]
Selects the basic direction for movement through the
Note Series in a particular phase. Works in conjunction
with the parameters in the Index Group, which control
how the index(es) move through the Note Series. For
example, when the Direction is 0: Forward, the Index
Pattern values are added to the index to move it
through the Note Series from left to right; when
Direction is 1: Backward, the Index Pattern values are
subtracted to move the index through the Note Series
from right to left.
Not available when “GE Type” (p.897) = 1:
Generated-Gated. If 2: Generated-Drum, the Note
Series can be applied as pitch bend, discussed
elsewhere.
Phase Transpose [–36…+36 (semitones)]
Allows each Phase to be transposed individually.
This applies to each time the Phase occurs in the
overall Phase Pattern, unlike the Step Transpose
Value. Has no effect on Direct Indexing effects,
which have a separate Transpose parameter (see
Direct Index Group) or when “GE Type”(p.897) =
2: Generated-Drum. The Phase Transpose value is
cumulative with the Step Transpose value discussed
above. For example, if a Step Transpose Value is –12,
and the Phase Transpose Value for the Phase in use
during that step is +24, the overall transpose would
be +12.
Octave Phs. Transpose [–36…+36]
Allows the Phase’s Transpose value to be quantized to
the nearest octave, so that when being changed in real-
time, only transposition by octaves is possible. In this
case, the value of the parameter changes by semitones,
but the actual transpose value will only change at
certain points within the range:
Oct/5th Phs. Transpose [–36…+36]
Allows the Phase’s Transpose value to be quantized to
the nearest octave or fifth, so that when being changed
in real-time, only transposition by octaves or fifths is
possible. In this case, the value of the parameter
changes by semitones, but the actual transpose value
will only change at certain points within the range:
Events [1…96]
TSig Numerator [0…31]
TSig Denominator [0…4]
The parameters for determining when a Phase Change
should occur vary according to the setting of the Phase
“Length Mode” (
p.9), described in General
Parameters above. When the Phase “Length Mode” is
1: TS-Time Signature, “TSig Numerator” and “TSig
Denominator” are available which allow you to specify
various time signatures for each Phase. A certain
number of beats is then performed in the Phase,
regardless of any other circumstances which might
trigger a Phase Change. When the Phase “Length
Mode” is 2: EV-Events, a events is available which
allows you to specify a certain number of events (an
event being a note or cluster of notes). The specified
