Special Programs

The airSynth has a few Programs that act differently than the others.

This section describes their special operation.

Sequencers

Programs 2, 42, 43, 44, 45

The Programs listed above are Sequencer programs. A sequencer is a

device that records in a loop, remembering which notes you play. You

can keep adding notes each time the sequencer loops around. When

you’re finished recording, the airSynth allows you to filter or adjust the

loop.

When you recall one of these programs, the first thing you will hear is

a metronome click. As you move your hand towards the sensor from

different sides, you will trigger one of several pitches or drum sounds.

After one measure has passed (8 clicks) you will hear this tone played

again. The airSynth corrects the timing so that it plays back in the

nearest 1/16

note. It’s easier to think about your timing falling on a

grid:

Open HH

Click

Closed HH

Snare

Kick

The grid above shows the 16 different timing locations where a drum

hit or pitch can fall. If you play a note a little bit early or late, the

airSynth will move it so that it falls right on a beat.

The airSynth will continue looping as you add notes. When you think

you’ve finished creating your loop, turn on the Hold function by

pressing the Program knob for one second. You will notice that the

click goes away and that a decimal point appears between the first and

second digits of the Program number in the display.
