RE: [xl7] Grid mode note resolution / gate.

2011-08-19 by Andrew

When you're in grid mode, the Track Enable/Mute button above the 16 "grid" buttons is used to select between the 4 different resolutions available. 16th, 32nd, and 8th triplets, 16th triplets. The display still only has room for 16 positions, so if you're using a resolution other than 16th, you'll have to manually advance the cursor to the next screen to see the available positions in that measure beyond what would be numbered 16.

It gets kind of complicated, but you can change the resolution of your grid recordings... mixing and matching them, but I don't think you can control the durations with any of the knobs... and the gate only applies to the arpeggiator. You might also try recording in step mode... it makes working with different durations quite a bit easier than grid mode. Grid mode works well for programming beats, and rhythmic things like that... it's not really intended for melodic parts with varying note durations.
