LAYER PRESET
(1…128)
Using the +/- Value buttons select the sound you want to layer with your
normal play sound as long as you have the hold pedal depressed.
SEQ PATTERN
(OFF, 1…32)
If you own the ZETA SYNTHONY II, you have the option alongside the
normal Hold Preset, to set a drum pattern sequence )see UTILITY MODE,
EDIT SEQUENCE). As soon as you press the hold pedal, the selected
drum pattern will play on a separate MIDI channel. The pattern will be
repeated until you press the hold pedal two times quickly. Choose one
drum pattern of 1-32, that you want to play when you press the hold pedal,
or set this parameter to OFF.
SEQ TRACK
(OFF, 1…8)
If you own the internal sound board, you can set a complex track sequence
to play instead of a pattern (see UTILITY MODE, EDIT SEQUENCE)
parallel to the hold preset. As soon as you press the hold pedal, the selected
track pattern will play on a separate MIDI channel. The pattern will be
repeated until you press the hold pedal two times quickly. Or you can set
the number of times that you want the sequence to be played. Choose one
track pattern of 1-8, that you want to play when you press the hold pedal, or
set this parameter to OFF. Please note that you can only use one of the two
sequence possibilities at a time: either SEQ TRACK or SEQ PATTERN.
Make sure the other one is set to OFF.
SEQ TEMPO
(EXT., 41…240)
The tempo of your sequence can be set externally using Midi clock
(EXT/MIDI IN) or internally using BPM (beats per minute) between 41
(very slow) and 240 (very fast). In the case of external synchronization,
(e.g.. MIDI-Drums, sequencer software ) the sequence will only start when
the “start” command is received from the MIDI IN port.
ARPEG
In addition to the above mentioned sequencing possibilities you can use the
powerful arpeggiator in your ZETA SYNTHONY II to accompany
yourself.
Along side the function SEP, which allows you to hold a single chord as
accompaniment, the ARPEG function allows you more complex
accompaniment structures. When you press the hold pedal, and play a
series of notes, these notes are received and then played back in the same
