MULTI-ARP
Multi-arpeggiator is a unique feature of Orchestra Enigmatica, while it may look enigmatic at first sight, it’s not really complicated. It just offers a lot of options. The basic idea is to make it possible to run several different arpeggios originating from a single chord.
There are 8 arpeggiators which can be stacked (play simultaneously) or queued (play a number of steps one after another). The instrument has keyboard split functionality, part of keyboard can be used to trigger arpeggios and at the same time you can play a melody using the other region of the keyboard. Arpeggiator region is colored green on virtual keyboard and non-arpeggiated region is colored blue.
Each arp has “OFF” option as a mode of operation. When all arps are off, the whole key range can be played normally. You can also turn the whole arpeggiator engine on/off without disabling arps one by one, using arp on/off switch.
Normally when you press a key in arp region only the arpeggio can be heard. However you can play both, arpeggio and sustained notes in the arp region, when you turn on “thru” switch. You can use the switch to turn sustained sounds on/and off while holding a chord.
