Arpeggiator
An ARPEGGIATOR — hold a chord and it plays the notes back as a rhythmic line in time. Wire a Keyboard, MIDI In, or Chord Progression into the Notes input (the chord it arpeggiates), bind a Clock to Sync, and wire its Pitch/Gate/Velocity into a synth voice (or a Synth Voice rig). MODE picks the order (up / down / up-down / down-up / random / as-played / chord); OCTAVES spreads it across 1–4 octaves; RATE is the note division; GATE the note length; LATCH keeps it arpeggiating after you let go. Hold a chord, press play. (The deluxe step pattern — per-step velocity / ratchet / probability / tie — is the next slice.)
