First Steps

Let’s deal with the simple Arpeggio patterns “Up/Down” and “Random” first. These are by no means unique

to the CS2x, but can be found on many a synthesizer and therefore serve well as an introduction as to how

Areggiators automatically break up chords. What this actually sounds like isn’t important right now. We want

to concentrate exclusively on the sequence of notes produced. We recommend Performance TP060 or a

similar percussive sound for reference.

EXPERIMENT:

Select a 1/16 resolution and a tempo between 100 and 120bpm. You can of course also set the tempo via MIDI Clock

synchronization – actually that’s a good idea, as you can then use the sequencer as a reference to help you understand

the Arpeggio beats and rhythms better. Use the four note C major chord for all Arpeggios (triad + octave root note). Now

listen how the Arpeggiator translates this chord:

“UpOct1-4” – here each chord note is playing from the bottom note to the top note over 1, 2 or even 4 octaves if desired.

The opposite sequence results from type “DownOct1-4”, i.e. the notes are played starting with the highest down to the

lowest. “Random Oct1/2/4” however selects the chord notes randomly from a 1 to 4 octave range.

Whilst the above Arpeggio types hardly require further explanation, there is one noteworthy difference in the

case of the combined Up/Down Arpeggio type. As you might expect, in both cases the Arpeggiator begins

with the lowest note, ascends to the top, and then descends back down again, regardless of whether 1, 2 or

4 octaves are selected. Still, the note sequence produced is slightly different.

EXPERIMENT:

Play the C major chord using Performances TP061 and TP062. If you now follow each sound i.e. the sequences gener-

ated by “UpDwAOct2” and “UpDwBOct2”, you will notice a small irregularity with type B: the root note is not played again

after the highest note has been reached – all the other Arpeggio types in the last EXPERIMENT did! This results in an

unwanted “shifting”, i.e. the Arpeggio’s root note doesn’t always fall exactly on the correct beat. The following Note

Examples should make this a little clearer.

Note Example: UpDwBOct2

Note Example: UpDwAOct2

1 2 ... 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 ... 76 77
