When people say ratcheting what are they meaning exactly?
I'm really looking at getting a sequencer these days or at least a few of them. I'm big on the sequencing methods of Tangerine Dream and I'm curious if the sequencer on the Pro 2 can ratchet steps and also chain together sequences or should I be looking at a stand alone sequencer for this type of techniques?
Cue lets you continuously run the sequencer while you switch from program to program. The sequence and sound associated with each program will play until it reaches its end, then change to the next program (and the sequence associated with it). If you save multiple versions of the same program, each with a different sequence, you can use Cue to switch through them in real time, effectively stringing multiple sequences together to create a “song” in real time.

It only allows the notes of an arpeggio to be repeated up to 3 times.You can chain together sequences with the cue function. This is what the manual says about it:QuoteCue lets you continuously run the sequencer while you switch from program to program.

Darn.

Just set the LFO's frequency to a synced clock division timing and have its amount controlled by the steps at which ratcheting should occur. Or: have each step modulate that LFO at full so that you can easily activate or deactivate the ratcheting for each step on the fly by pressing the step buttons. Easy fix.

Easy fix.Not sure if this would work somewhat- Delays being set short, synced to bpm and sequenced only to sound on certain notes.
