The Gapper happens on the final output of the synth after the FX. The Gapper is used for  manipulating the volume in a rhythmic way to create a stuttering effect often heard in Electronic Music.



This view is always visible at the top of the synth next to the Keyboard and has the basic Gapper Settings:

• Attack - Attack Time of each Gapper Slice
• Release - Release Time of each Slice
• Width - Pulse Length of each slice
• Mix - Mix between the Gapper and the Synth Output, at 0 the synth goes fully through the Gapper.
• DEFAULT - Sets the Section to its default values
• RANDOMIZE - Randomizes the most useful settings in the Section.

The Buttons represent 32 positions of the sequence, blue indicates that  this slot will send a retrigger.  The pulses cycle through the top 16 left to right and the through the second row (assuming forwrd and 32 steps is selected; see below).

• RESET BUTTONS - Green button to the left will switch all to ON or a subsequent click will set all to OFF.
• SHIFT LEFT/RIGHT - The Triangle buttons will move the pattern either left or right by 1 step.
• DEFAULT - Sets the Section to its default values
• RANDOMIZE - Randomizes the most useful settings in the Section.

• FLIP - This will reverse the Buttons, if RND Lock is ON, it will only reverse the active section, otherwise it will reverse the full range.
• RND LOCK - Locks the random mode to only affect the active steps when using Randomize, Flip or Shift Range, otherwise they will all affect the entire range.
• RETRIGGER - Restarts the sequencer  with each note press, this is usually best left on for most purposes.
• RANDOMIZE - Randomizes the Buttons.

• TEMPO - Selects the current clock tempo for the sequencer.
• STEPS - Decides how many steps will be used.
• DIRECTION - Selects the play direction from the following:
• Forward - Plays notes start to end and then restarts.
• Reverse - Plays End to Start and the starts from the end again.
• Random - Selects a random value for each step, same notes can occur.
• Alternate - Plays front to back and then back to front.
• POLARITY - Affects the Gapper Output Mode:
• Normal - Plays All ON positions.
• Full Polarity -  Will play all Off positions.
• Single Note -  Will play only the first off position of a row of off positions.
