Arpeggiator and Note Repeat
Rate
The Arp/Repeat Rate parameter determines the timing value that notes are played at.
• Move the pot labelled “Rate” and position the indicator to point at any rate of 1/4, 1/8, 1/16, 1/32 or 1/64 as shown by the screen
printing.
• To select triplets, hold [Function] while pressing [Pad 6], labelled “Triplets”, until the pad is illuminated red. When triplets are active
the rate values are 1/4T, 1/8T, 1/16T, 1/32T or 1/64T.
• Press [Function]+[Pad 6] again to switch triplets off (illuminated yellow).
Swing
Swing moves every second note closer to the next or previous note. This results in a shuffle rhythm. By default the swing value is 0%
which means that swing is off.
• Move the pot labelled “Swing” counterclockwise to select a value from 0 to -50%. A negative value will move every second note
closer to the preceding note.
• Move the Swing pot clockwise to select a swing value from 0 to +50%. A positive value will move every second note further away
from the preceding note.
• When the Swing pot is at 0 (center position) swing is off.
Accent Level
An accent plays a repeated note at its played velocity +/- accent level. The accent level range is set from 0 to -/+50 in increments of 10.
• Move the “Accent Level” pot clockwise to increase the accent velocity level.
• Move the pot ccw (counterclockwise) to set accent level to 0.
Interval
Sets the repeat interval for the set Accent Level (from 2 to 8). An interval setting of 2 means every second note will be played with
the accent offset value, and a setting of 8 plays every 8th note with the accent offset value, etc.
• Move the “Interval” pot. The pad LEDs are updated to indicate the currently selected value from 2-8.
Tempo & sync
Tempo can be set between 30 and 240 BPM using 3 different methods:
• Move the pot labelled “Tempo” to change tempo in real-time.
• Hold [Function] and strike [Pad 7 - Tap Tempo] in a steady rhythm until the tempo is set.
• Enter a specific tempo value in Setup mode. See page 19.
MIDI clock
Impact LX Mini automatically detects if MIDI clock is received on USB MIDI port 1. Clock will then switch from internal clock to MIDI clock.
When the Arp/Repeat engine is sync‘ed to MIDI clock, tempo can only be set on the master clock device (such as a DAW or MIDI
equipment sending MIDI clock).
To learn how to route MIDI clock to Impact LX Mini’s USB MIDI port 1, read the documentation of the product acting as master clock
source. If you want to send MIDI clock from your DAW to LX Minit, check this page for setup instructions.
