18.3. BEAT REPEAT 241

Gate denes the total length of all repetitions in sixteenth notes. If Gate is set to 4/16,

the repetitions will occur over the period of one beat, starting at the position dened by

Interval and Offset.

Activating the Repeat button bypasses all of the above controls, immediately capturing

material and repeating it until deactivated.

The Grid control denes the grid size  the size of each repeated slice. If set to 1/16, a

slice the size of one sixteenth note will be captured and repeated for the given Gate length

(or until Repeat is deactivated). Large grid values create ryhthmic loops, while small values

create sonic artifacts. The No Triplets button sets grid division as binary.

Grid size can be changed randomly using the Variation control. If Variation is set to 0,

grid size is xed. But when Variation is set to higher values, the grid uctuates considerably

around the set Grid value. Variation has several different modes, available in the chooser

below: Trigger creates variations of the grid when repetitions are triggered; 1/4, 1/8 and

1/16 trigger variations in regular intervals; and Auto forces Beat Repeat to apply a new

random variation after each repetition  the most complex form of grid variation in Beat

Repeat (especially if triplets are also allowed).

Beat Repeat's repetitions can be pitched down for special sonic effects. Pitch is adjusted

through resampling in Beat Repeat, lengthening segments to pitch them down without again

compressing them to adjust for the length change. This means that the rythmical structure

can become quite ambiguous with higher Pitch values. The Pitch Decay control tapers the

pitch curve, making each repeated slice play lower than the previous one. Warning: This is

the most obscure parameter of Beat Repeat.

Beat Repeat includes a combined low-pass and high-pass lter for dening the passed

frequency range of the device. You can turn the lter on and off, and set the center

frequency and width of the passed frequency band, using the respective controls.

The original signal (which was received at Beat Repeat's input) is mixed with Beat Repeat's

repetitions according to one of three mix modes: Mix allows the origial signal to pass

through the device and have repetitions added to it; Insert mutes the original signal when
