Arpeggiator MIDI plug-in note order variations in Logic Pro for iPad
The table outlines the Arpeggiator behavior in each note order preset when the Note Order Vari(ation) knob is set to the four available positions.
Note order | Variation 1 | Variation 2 | Variation 3 | Variation 4 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Up | Plays from the lowest to highest note in consecutive order and restarts when all keys are played. | Plays the second step first. This variation consists of four steps; all pressed keys are divided into groups of four with the note order applied to all groups. If there are fewer than four notes, the steps without an assigned key are skipped. Once all keys are played, the arpeggio restarts with the lowest note. | Plays the third step first. This variation consists of four steps; all pressed keys are divided into groups of four with the note order applied to all groups. If there are fewer than four notes, the steps without an assigned key are skipped. Once all keys are played, the arpeggio restarts with the lowest note. | This variation, which consists of three steps, plays up and overlaps; all pressed keys are divided into groups of three with the note order applied to all groups. If there are fewer than three notes, the steps without an assigned key are skipped. Once all keys are played, the arpeggio restarts with the lowest note. |
Down | Plays from the highest to lowest note in consecutive order and restarts when all keys are played. | Plays the second step first. This variation consists of four steps; all pressed keys are divided into groups of four with the note order applied to all groups. If there are fewer than four notes, the steps without an assigned key are skipped. Once all keys are played, the arpeggio restarts with the highest note. | Plays the third step first. This variation consists of four steps; all pressed keys are divided into groups of four with the note order applied to all groups. If there are fewer than four notes, the steps without an assigned key are skipped. Once all keys are played, the arpeggio restarts with the highest note. | This variation, which consists of three steps, plays down and overlaps; all pressed keys are divided into groups of three with the note order applied to all groups. If there are fewer than three notes, the steps without an assigned key are skipped. Once all keys are played, the arpeggio restarts with the highest note. |
Up & Down | Plays from the lowest to highest note in consecutive order, then plays from the highest to the lowest note, and restarts when all keys are played. | Plays from the lowest to highest note in consecutive order, then plays from the second highest to the second lowest note, and restarts when all keys are played. | This two-step variation works with pairs of notes. The second note of the pair plays first. In a four-note chord, the order is 2, 1, 4, 3. Once the pattern is played, the note order is reversed, then the arpeggio restarts. | This three-step variation works with trios of notes. The note order is 1, 3, 2. Once the pattern is played, the note order is reversed, then the arpeggio restarts. |
Outside-in | Plays the highest note, then the lowest note, then plays the second highest and the second lowest note, and so on. The arpeggio restarts when all keys are played. | Plays the lowest note, then the highest note, then plays the second lowest and the second highest note, and so on. The arpeggio restarts when all keys are played. | This is an inside-out variation. The number of played keys is divided by two (rounded up to the nearest whole number). The highest center note is played, then the low-center note, and so on. In a six-note chord, the order is 4, 3, 5, 2, 6, 1. The arpeggio restarts when all keys are played. | This is an inside-out variation. The number of played keys is divided by two (rounded up to the nearest whole number). The lowest center note is played, then the high-center note, and so on. In a six-note chord, the order is 3, 4, 2, 5, 1, 6. The arpeggio restarts when all keys are played. |
Random | Played note order is randomly generated and can include duplicate notes. | Played note order is randomly generated but no note is played twice. The arpeggio restarts when all keys are played. | This variation favors low notes. Played note order is randomly generated and can include duplicate notes. | This variation favors high notes. Played note order is randomly generated and can include duplicate notes. |
As Played | Plays all notes in the order they were played, then restarts. | Plays all notes in the reverse order they were played, then restarts. | Plays all notes in the order they were played, then plays notes in reverse order, doubling the first and last played notes. The arpeggio restarts once all notes are played. | Plays all notes in the order they were played, then plays notes in reverse order, but does not repeat the first and last played notes. The arpeggio restarts once all notes are played. |
