Hello. I have my arpeggiator/sequencer working on my synth or MIDI controller, is there a way in which I can plays the keys WITHOUT changing what the arpeggiator/sequencer is playing?

Hello maybe the question was not well done. What I mean is this, I have a synthesizer (or a MIDI controller) playing a line with the Arp/Seq. Can I isolate what the Arp/Seq is playing in order to play a separate line with the keys?

That depends on whether your synth/controller has that capability.olimpo wrote: Wed Mar 08, 2023 3:18 pm Hello maybe the question was not well done.

I like the ARP in D16's Phoscyon where instead of defining offsets from the first key pressed it uses key pressed in a chord (so you can define the arp to play note 1 of chord, then note 4, then note 1 one octave higher, etc). You can map the MIDI from that. Is that the sort of behavior you are asking about?

Hello, thanks, it is not about the way the Arp/Seq plays, it is about being able to play other stuff with the keyboard while the Arp/Seq is playing its own lines, even if a play a note which overlaps with the ones the Arp/Seq is playing.

That goes against the concept of what a midi keyboard's arpeggiator is. An arpeggiator is meant to be played, is not a standalone sequencer. At most you can split the keyboard so you can play one side while the other arpeggiates what you play, but it depends on your particular controller having that capability.
