Chapter 2: Presets
1-20. A variety of pre-programmed arpeggiator sequences
USR: A user programmable sequence. (See the next section, ?Effect:
The User Sequence? to learn how to program your own sequence.)
For consistency, all of the 20 preset sequences are in the key of E. To
transpose the key, edit the Frequency/Key parameter, which
transposes numerically in semitones. For example, to lower a
sequence from E to D, reduce the Frequency/Key value by 2.
If you have a MIDI keyboard, you can use it to transpose the
arpeggiator sequences in real time. Simply connect your keyboard?s
MIDI OUT to the AdrenaLinn?s MIDI IN and as the arpeggiator
sequence plays, press any key on the keyboard to instantly transpose.
Press E above middle C for no transposition, press any lower key to
transpose down; or press any higher key to transpose up.
Important information about tremolo sequences, filter sequences and
arpeggiator sequences:
While playing tremolo, filter or arpeggiator sequences, you may notice
that a specific sequence will play 1/8 notes when one drumbeat is
selected and 1/16 notes with another, or may play at a different swing
level depending on the selected drumbeat. This is because the
sequence?s timebase (1/8 notes, 1/8 triplets, 1/16 notes, or 1/16 swing)
is always the same as the drumbeat?s Timebase setting. For example,
if a sequence is playing with swing timing and you?d prefer to hear it
with straight 1/16 notes, change the drumbeat?s Timebase setting to
the desired value.
AFI: Auto filter
Also called auto-wah or envelope wah, this effect simulates, for
example, a wah pedal that automatically rocks forward and back each
time a new note is played. The variations are:
1. Auto synth filter
2. Auto wah
3. Auto-wah, down sweep
4. Auto synth filter, soft tone
5. Slow rise synth filter with resonance (Speed controls rise and fall)
6. Slow rise, synth filter soft (Speed controls rise and fall)
7. Slow rise wah (Speed controls rise and fall)
8. Sharp attack synth filter with resonance (Speed controls rise/fall)
9. Sharp attack wah (Speed controls rise/fall)
10. Peak hold synth filter
11. Peak hold wah
12. Peak hold wah, inverted
