# 9.7 ARPEGGIATOR MENU

9. PATTERNS, KITS AND PRESETS
VELOCITY MOD
Opens a menu where you can assign up to four parameters to the velocity parameter. Both the VEL
parameter on the TRIG menu and the velocity of incoming MIDI notes sent to the Digitone II from ex
ternal devices affects the assigned parameters. Press [YES] to open the menu. Selecting parameters
and setting modulation depth works in the same way as for KEY TRACKING.
AFTERTOUCH
Opens a menu where you can assign up to four parameters to the MIDI aftertouch command. Press
[YES] to open the menu. Selecting parameters and setting modulation depth works in the same way
as for KEY TRACKING.
PITCH BEND
Opens a menu where you can assign up to four parameters to the MIDI pitch bend command. Press
[YES] to open the menu. Selecting parameters and setting modulation depth works in the same way
as for KEY TRACKING.
MODULATION WHEEL
Opens a menu where you can assign up to four parameters to the MIDI mod wheel command (CC #1).
Press [YES] to open the menu. Selecting parameters and setting modulation depth works in the same
way as for KEY TRACKING.
BREATH CTRL
Opens a menu where you can assign up to four parameters to the MIDI breath controller command
(CC #2). Press [YES] to open the menu. Selecting parameters and setting modulation depth works in
the same way as for KEY TRACKING.
RENAME
Opens the NAMING menu and let you rename the preset of the active track.
9.7 ARPEGGIATOR MENU
The ARPEGGIATOR menu controls the preset's arpeggiator. These settings are part of the preset and
saved together with the preset. The arpeggiator is not available for the MIDI tracks. Press [ARPEGGIATOR]
to open the ARPEGGIATOR menu. Press [TRIG 1–16] to select the presets whose arpeggiator are edited.
Press [FUNC] + [ARPEGGIATOR] to toggle the ARPEGGIATOR on and off.
9.7.1 MODE
Activates the arpeggiator and controls how the arpeggiated notes are sorted.
OFF deactivates the arpeggiator.
TRUE plays the notes in the same order as they are inserted.
UP plays the notes in ascending order, from the lowest note to the highest, on a per octave basis.
DOWN plays the notes in descending order, from the highest note to the lowest, on a per octave basis.
CYCL plays the notes first in ascending order, then in descending order.
9.7.2 SPEED
Speed sets the speed of the arpeggiator. The options are synchronized to the BPM of the project.
9.7.3 RANGE
Range sets the octave range of the arpeggiator. After each completed arpeggiator cycle, the arpeggiat
ed notes are transposed one octave up. When the notes have reached the octave offset specified by the
RANGE setting the notes are reset to their initial values. From there the octave transpose is started all
over again.

9.7.4 N.LEN
Note Length controls the length of the arpeggiated notes.
9.7.5 LEN
Turn DATA ENTRY knob F to select the length of the arpeggio. The max length is 16 sequencer steps.
9.7.6 OFS
Offset selects the offset (note) value of the chosen arpeggiator step in semi-tones. The offset is from the
original note trig.
1. Press [LEFT] or [RIGHT] to select which arpeggiator step to offset.
2. Use DATA ENTRY knob E to set the offset.
3. Press [DOWN] to mute an arpeggiator step. Press [UP] to activate an arpeggiator step that has
been deactivated.
• Press [FUNC] + [LEFT]/[RIGHT] to rotate the created arpeggiator pattern forward or
backward.
• Copy, Paste, Clear commands are available in the arpeggiator menu. For more informa
tion, please see “6.4 COPY, CLEAR, AND PASTE” on page 19.

10. THE SEQUENCER
10. THE SEQUENCER
The sequencer of the Digitone II stores information in patterns. A pattern controls the playback of the
tracks and various pattern-specific aspects of the tracks. Patterns are stored in projects. A project contains
8 banks (A to H) with 16 patterns each, which means 128 patterns are available for each project. For more
information, please see “13.3 PATTERN MENU” on page 73.
A pattern contains:
• General trig settings on the TRIG page (default note pitch, velocity et cetera).
• The kit with all parameter settings on the SYN, FLTR, AMP, FX and MOD pages.
• The settings on the DELAY, REVERB, CHORUS and MIXER pages.
• The settings in the SETUP menu.
• Quantization settings.
• Note trigs and Lock trigs for all tracks.
• Parameter/preset locks.
• Length and time signature for the tracks.
10.1 PATTERN OPERATIONS
Digitone II can seamlessly switch between patterns. This, together with the ability to chain patterns, is a
handy feature when improvising live. For more information, please see “10.1.3 CHAINS” on page 41.
10.1.1 SELECTING BANK AND PATTERN
Press [PTN] and then use the [LEFT]/[RIGHT] keys to select a bank (if you want to select a pattern
from another bank than the current). Then press [TRIG 1–16] to select a pattern.
There is a secondary way to change bank and pattern, more similar to earlier Elektron devices. Press
[FUNC] + [PTN], and then press [TRIG 9–16] to select a bank. Then press [TRIG 1–16] to select a pat
tern within that bank.
If you just want to select a pattern within the current bank, press [PTN] + [TRIG 1–16].
Press [PTN] or [NO] to exit bank/pattern selection.
White [TRIG] keys indicate pattern positions that contain data. A red [TRIG] key indicates the current
active pattern. Empty patterns are unlit.
When a pattern is playing, and a new pattern is selected, the new pattern number will be shown flashing
in the upper left corner of the screen. Once the last step of the pattern has played, the new pattern will
start, and the pattern number will cease to flash.
• Patterns can be changed while the sequencer is running.
• Patterns can be changed and queued by sending program change messages.
• It is possible to copy a pattern, and then paste it to one or several locations without
leaving the active pattern. You can also clear one or several non-active patterns.
- To copy, first press [PTN]. Then press [TRIG] + [RECORD] to select the pattern you
wish to copy and copy it. Then press [TRIG] + [STOP] to select to where you want to
paste the pattern and paste it.
- To clear, first press [PTN]. Then press [TRIG] + [PLAY] to select the pattern you wish
to clear and clear it.
10.1.2 PATTERN CONTROL
Press [PLAY] to start the playback of a pattern. Press [STOP] to stop the playback of all tracks. The
sound will be cut off, but effects like Delay will continue to be audible until the delay repeats have faded
out. Quickly press [STOP] + [STOP] to stop playback of all tracks and get just a short fade out of the
send effects.
When a pattern is playing, press [PLAY] to pause the playback. Press [PLAY] to resume the playback.
If a pattern contains more than 16 sequencer steps, the <PATTERN PAGE> LEDs will indicate this. When
a pattern is playing, the currently active pattern page is shown with a flashing, <PATTERN PAGE> LED.
10.1.3 CHAINS
Chains are sequences that consist of more than one pattern. You can use chains to preselect and auto
mate the order in which you want your patterns to play
