Seq66 Basic Tutorial Pattern Tools
The Tools button provides for note selection, quantization, pitch and harmonic transposition, an LFO generator, and a "pattern fixer". The figure below shows the LFO and Pattern-fix dialogs.
LFO Generator. The LFO generator allows one to apply modulation to the events shown in the data pane. The following adjustments can be made: DC Offset. Provides the basic level of the adjustment. Depth. Provides the modulation depth. Period. Provides the number of periods in the modulation, where period applies. Phase. Provides the modulation phase, if applicable. Use Measures (vs Lenght). Determines the duration to use. Wave Type. Determines the wave to use, such as sine and triangle waves. Pattern Fix. This dialog allows for multiple ways to alter/fix a pattern, useful for people with lousy timing, etc. The following adjustments can be made: Length Change. One can change the number of measures, the time-signature (tricky), and the scale factor. Note that here, changing measures rescales the pattern, unlike changing the measure in the pattern-editor. Quantization. Provides tightening/full quantization, and also time jitter. Other Fixes. Provides left-alignment, pattern reversal, and the option to preserve note length. period applies. |
