Swing
Arpeggiator » Swing
At the SWING control’s minimum setting, all events are aligned to the tempo grid. As the setting is increased, the events will have a greater swing groove. At high settings the swing will be exaggerated. NOTE: When you adjust / enable the SWING control to…
Sync
The Layer Pages » LFOs » Sync
The LFO SYNC switch determines how the LFO rate behaves. When Sync is enabled, the LFO will lock its rate to the host’s song tempo and the values assigned to the Rate knob will change—instead of displaying a value in Hz, the values are displayed in rhythmic…
