Hi.
I'm at the point where I master Spire quite well (my favorite synth by the way) but there's one thing that still escapes me. On some patches, I hear a modulation that seems to be coming from a stepper, but if I turn off all steppers and the modulation's still there. You also see a yellow "thingy" moving through the steps on the stepper, but here, nothing.
Take for example the preset "Arp Abstraction" in the "Seq & Arp" category. I turned off all Steppers but it's still stepping. I checked all other modulators too, but this type of modulation can only be created by a stepper. Is there a mysterious modulator hiding somehere?
Thanks
Does Spire have a hidden modulator?

Hi!
The visual stepping in the stepper is present, but it does not necessarily affect the sound.
In the “Arp Abstraction” preset, modulation can come from multiple sources, not just the stepper. Other modulation sources such as LFOs, envelopes, or modulation matrix routings may be responsible for the effect.

Hi.
That was one of ny biggest Duh! moments. I swear I've been using Spire for years (not enough as I should obviously) and I've never noticed the Arp. Probably because there's none on the left side, so I just assumed that the right side was exactly the same as the left.
I'm stupid.
