How exactly does the note configuration text files work with the Built-in Arpeggiator?
In the header I see:
' ARPEGGIATOR CONFIGURATION FILE
' ------------------------------
' a list of up to 16 relative positions:
' e.g. ArpIndexes = +2, -1 means jump 2 notes
' upwards, then one note down etc.
ArpIndexes = <numbers here>
What is the baseline from where these notes jump up or down?
For instance if I have 3 note chord playing G#-C-D# together and in the arp config file I have ArpIndexes = 1, 2, -3 and the Range is set to 3, what would/is happening?

Arpeggiator Questionsthose numbers refer to semi tones up (+) or down (-) from the root note.
Check out some of the other text files, this should help. Last edited by ufo on Sun Nov 21, 2010 9:32 pm, edited 1 time in total.

Arpeggiator QuestionsThank you for responding.. But unfortunately that doesn't help actually.. perhaps you could further explain?
lets make my example more simplistic.. if I was playing a chord consisting of C E G and the arp pattern said 1 2 3 does this mean its going to play C E G in that order? what about if it only has 3 ? surely its not just playing C I can hear more notes being played.. I'm a bit lost as to what is happening.. The manual says 'try it yourself' but thats not an explanation I've been 'trying' it for 8 years.. a solid explanation would be handy.

Arpeggiator QuestionsI think the header of that configuration file along with ufo's explanation should give you a clue what's happening.
If I understood that right, if you have arp pattern +1, +2, +3, it will jump 1 notes up, then 2 up, then 3 up. Playing a three-note chord should do that for all the notes, I think, so playing C E G at the same time should give you: 1st note: C# F G# 2nd note: D F# A 3rd note: D# G A# I think... not sure though.

Arpeggiator QuestionsThat's not quite right. Say you're holding down C E G, the first note played will be C. If the arp pattern is +1 +2 +3, E will be the next note played (+1) followed by G (+2). +3 will be ignored as that would require a 4th note to be pressed so the arp goes back to 0 instead then E and G again ad infinitum or until you release the keys.

Thats weird. So its not playing my original chord at all?? Can anyone confirm this is exactly what is happening? Rich, how about you, you coded it. Would you explain please in more detail?

It's not right. My description is the correct one (I hope )
Arpeggiator QuestionsHeck, I said I wasn't sure :hihi:

Thanks to both for responding at least :c ) But yours does make a bit more sense.. so the arp text file just defines note order based off of what is being played in the piano roll? What do you think would happen if I plopped in a negative value in the arp list? say +1 +2 -3 on C E G? Does it now play C E G E (reverting back 3 semis from G to E) or does it go C E G G (going back from root C down to the next lowest G) ? or something completely different?
