Hello

Im in the learning curve with mine 1 week old motif and have a quest regarding arp in pattern mode.

I have recorded a performance in pattern mode and are in the process of filling up with sounds on the other tracks (5-16)

Is there a smooth way to put an arp on voice in pattern mode or has this to been done in the voice mode, it would be kind of nice if your in pattern mode could rehearse a voice with different arps, is this possible ?

/Jack

well, I goggled and found that this is done thru the Mixer and edit function, in the meny I’m tried to do some experiments, on part one I’m trying to turn the arp of on a a part but its still playing, what I’m I missing here?

I turned the switch of but the arp still playing.

Best R

From Pattern mode, press [MIXING] > [EDIT]
Press [1]~[16] to select Part number
Press [F2] ARP Main
Press [SF1]~[SF5] (Arp 1~5)
Scroll down, select Arp Bank, Category, Sub Category, Type
--- or ---
Press [CATEGORY SEARCH], select Main, Sub, Arp

STORE to keep choices.

Note that only four Arps can be active simultaneously. If four are already active, turn one off to turn another on.

EDIT: I was typing while Jas65 posted.

Did you turn “Hold” off also?

yes, everything is turned of in all four parts and still its playing as it was from the beginning with the arp on, this kind of confusing me..:)

Basically what i did was that i recorded a performance in pattern mode with several arp and since I’m in the basic learning I’m experimenting with different settings but the arp want go off in any part where I’m turning the switch and hold as you described to off

If an Arp was turned on when you recorded the Performance, then the MIDI data recorded by the sequencer will include the direct notes that you played, and the sorted ones the arpeggiator played. The arpeggiated note data will be sequenced when the Pattern is played back, no matter if you turn off the Arp that originally produced it.

Is that what you’re referring to?

ah, that explains it, thanks for you help, it started with that I wanted to turn on a arp on voice in pattern mode and ended with me starting to mess with existing and recorded arps,

Thanks for the answer

You’re welcome. Arp operation can be complicated. The support articles I provided links to should help, but of course please post again if you have further questions.

Thanks for the links, interesting reading.
