CC Arp
Purpose
Modulate per-step CC values (filter cutoff, resonance, decay, …) with short repeating patterns. Each CC-assigned row has an 8-step multiplier pattern and its own length. CC output is trig-checked. It only fires when the row’s trig fires.
Interaction
LHS LP: overview of all 8 CC rows (top = row 8 … bottom = row 1), lit steps use the row’s palette colour, position colour marks the playing step; unassigned rows stay dark. RHS LP: value editor for the selected row (column = step 1–8, row = value 1–8), one lit pad per step at the value’s height rather than a filled bar. The LHS LP also carries row selection: a single press selects, a double-tap on the same column confirms a new arp length. Sequencer 13 has two variants (main / alt kit) on separate views with independent tables.
Shortcuts
LHS: overview / row selection
| Gesture | Where | Action | Modifiers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Press column N (2–8) | Where LHS LP | Action Select that row (length unchanged) | Modifiers none |
| Double-tap column N (2–8) (≤350 ms) | Where LHS LP | Action Set the row’s arp length to N | Modifiers none |
| Press column 1 | Where LHS LP | Action Select the row only (length unchanged) | Modifiers none |
| Double-tap column 1 (≤350 ms) | Where LHS LP | Action Toggle the row’s length 0 ↔ 1 | Modifiers none |
| SHIFT + press column N (2–8) | Where LHS LP | Action Set the row’s length to N on a single press | Modifiers shift |
| SHIFT + press column 1 | Where LHS LP | Action Toggle the row’s length 0 ↔ 1 | Modifiers shift |
| SHIFT + press | Where LHS LP col 9 | Action Disable the row (length → 0) | Modifiers shift |
| SHIFT + MUTE + press | Where LHS LP col 9 | Action Hard reset: length → 0, all 8 step values → default 4 | Modifiers shift+mute |
| SHIFT + SOLO + press | Where LHS LP col 9 | Action Randomise all 8 step values (length unchanged) | Modifiers shift+solo |
RHS: value editor
| Gesture | Where | Action | Modifiers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Press | Where RHS LP | Action Write the pressed row’s value into the selected row’s arp step (column 1–8) | Modifiers none |
| SHIFT + press column N | Where RHS LP | Action Write the value and set the row’s arp length to N (this can shrink the length) | Modifiers shift |
| SHIFT + MUTE + press | Where RHS LP | Action Reset: fill selected arp with the row’s constant value | Modifiers shift+mute |
| SHIFT + SOLO + press | Where RHS LP | Action Randomise: gaussian fill of the selected arp | Modifiers shift+solo |
Length writes on unassigned rows are silently ignored (focus still follows the press). Unmodified, an RHS press never touches the length: only the SHIFT variant does.
