Arpeggiator
The Arpeggiator plays the notes of a musical
chord in succession, across a selected octave
range, at a selected tempo. Use the controls in
this section to specify the Arpeggiator’s parame-
ters.
Mode This selects the arpeggiator mode. The op-
tions are:
• Off: arpeggiation is off.
• Up: notes are arpeggiated upward.
• Down: notes are arpeggiated downward.
• Up & Down: notes are arpeggiated upward
and downward.
• As Played: notes are repeated in the exact
order played.
• Random: shuffles the order of notes played.
• Chord: chords are repeated instead of sin-
gle notes.
Pattern Selects among 64 different rhythmic
patterns for the arpeggiator. A setting of 0 sets
the arpeggiator to the pattern selected in the
Mode pop-up menu.
Note Length Controls the decay envelope of
notes so that you can add a staccato or legato ef-
fect to arpeggiation.
Swing Adds a triplet-based, “shuffle” feel to ar-
peggiation.
Oct Range Selects the range of arpeggiation,
from 1 to 4 octaves.
Clock Selects a beat-based arpeggiation rate.
Choices range from 1/64 to 1/1. Using the Clock
control overrides the Rate control. The arpeggia-
tor clock can be synchronized to MIDI Beat
Clock. See “Synchronizing LFO Clock to MIDI
Beat Clock” on page 47 for more information.
Hold When selected, the arpeggiator continues
to play the most recently held notes even after
the keys have been released.
The ModMatrix Page
The ModMatrix page has controls for routing
the sources, destinations, and amount of modu-
lation in a patch. Three separate routing ma-
trixes let virtually any control source be routed
to virtually any Virus Indigo parameter.
Typical modulation routings include:
• Controlling filter cutoff frequency with the
mod wheel of a MIDI keyboard
• Controlling an oscillator’s waveshape with
a breath controller
• Controlling filter or amplifier envelope pa-
rameters with key velocity
• Controlling LFO frequency with a foot
pedal
