Please, don’t forget to submit your feedback here, as it’s a beta version.
Thank you!

I have noticed a couple of minor grammatical things in what I have read so far and will log them here when I go through it again, but in general it is a very nice manual to read, it is written in a really engaging style!

Carlos

ZackDelta Do you find it engaging? That’s a first 😆
Thanks!

I finally got round to reading the manual again, keeping an eye out for any things which might not be clear. Here is what I spotted, sorry if any of it sounds pedantic but I guess it is 🙂

Page 14 - ‘1-shoot’ should probably be ‘1-shot’
Page 20 - should probably be ‘engine’ not ‘motor’
Page 20- lfo rate - is 2 bars the slowest rate, I can imagine people wanting it to go slower?
Page 22 - ‘resetted’ should be ‘reset’
Page 24 - the sentence about holding arps is repeated twice. It seems a bit odd that you can’t record arps in chord mode?
Page 30 - it sounds like the number of repeats goes up to 19 then jumps to infinite? Is that enough repeats? Would 32 or 64 be possible?
Page 30 - it says that changes to patterns are lost when the arranger loads a new pattern, I guess that also happens if you manually change pattern?

I lost concentration after that, might try again another time…

ZackDelta Thanks a ton for the feedback.

ZackDelta Page 20- lfo rate - is 2 bars the slowest rate, I can imagine people wanting it to go slower?

Probably yes. Right now 2 bars seems slow enough but should be easily added.

ZackDelta It seems a bit odd that you can’t record arps in chord mode?

ARP and the sequence are independent events. Both can be active at the same time. However, the sequence doesn’t have the ability to arpeggiate the chords at the moment, that’s why they can’t be recorded that way. A current workaround could be to reroute MIDI out from Chord ARP to MIDI in of a Polyphonic mode sequence and record there, but we will consider alternatives for it.

ZackDelta it sounds like the number of repeats goes up to 19 then jumps to infinite? Is that enough repeats? Would 32 or 64 be possible?

Think that repeats here refers to Pattern repeats. Having up to 128 steps in a pattern we haven’t seen the need to loop it for more than that amount, and it also easier to reach “infinity” or looping behavior which would be a very used setting. On the other hand a Pattern can be 1 step long as well, which of course you may want to repeat it for more than 19 times. Adding repetitions is not an issue, it just takes longer to reach the highest value. We’ll study that too.

ZackDelta it says that changes to patterns are lost when the arranger loads a new pattern, I guess that also happens if you manually change pattern?

Yes, unsaved changes are lost. We are aware that this is not ideal for all cases, so we’ll try to find a solution. The opposite, autosave is not always the ideal either.

Thanks again for the time taken!

I have read through the rest of the manual with my pedantic glasses on 😉

Page 32: ’there’re’ probably should be there are
Page 35: Repetition of the description about each row representing a particular chord.
Page 36: ’The inversions are then set for every
degree in order the chord voices are more musically balanced.' is a bit confusing especially
as ordered is used in a different way in the next sentence, perhaps ‘to ensure’ is better than
‘in order’
Page 37: ‘big’ could be changed to ‘large’
Page 37: ‘spliited’ should be ‘split’
Page 37: in the same sentence as above, need a ‘the’ between ‘are’ and ’perform.
Page 41: there is no text for Gate at the bottom of the page, although it is obvious what this will do.
Page 43: I don’t really understand this page properly, I will come back to it again…
Page 44: I guess this page isn’t finished?

Manuel

ZackDelta thanks a lot! 😊
