how can play notes with 3 steps in cthulhu

i want do a sequence that play in step 1 and step 2 a note. how can this done ?. other arps have a length parameter or have a button to tie the note. i can only play a note for 1 step. in other step the note is stop or if step active retrigger.

alt-click in the top half of the note sel graph.

thanks, this important feature work, when click with alt on deactive steps on top. there is a arrow right show on top. seem you forget add this important feature to manual

Some problems i notice on win 10 64

The value on the rate knob (1/16 or 1/8 and all other)is not redraw, when i move and release knob. so see the value it have is not see. i need change between display size. so if display currently show 100% i need switch to 200% then the rate value the steps have is correct show.

copy and paste work only in same cthulhu . when i want copy the content to another cthulhu,  this not work.

i did not see in manual(from cthulhu menu) that low keyboard keys can switch between  arp patterns. but it work. for live play i think it is usefull that the pattern change or transpose  or key release can set to 1/1,  so it happen only at end of pattern or other choosable values, that it transpose, stop arp play, or change pattern.

This was fixed in 1.11b

It's not a bug, the clipboard is inside the plugin I'm afraid.  Saving presets / reloading is the only way (or manual copying).  However you can use one Cthulhu to control several destinations if you're really trying to mirror things.

>fo__r live play i think it is usefull that the pattern change or transpose  or key release can set to 1/1

Programs such as ableton Live or Bitwig can contain clips to do that sort of thing for you at whatever quantize action you choose.

I'll make sure the manual contains the new features you mention!

I notice what happen, wy get the gaps. it is because cthuhulu delay the start of note to next step. but the release of the note is not quantize to next step

can hear good when use 1/1 step for chords. when press a key the start of note is delay to fit in the 1/1 raster. But when release the key, the note is immediate switch off.  Wy does the note not play until step end, when the note off come ?. when start of note and end of note are in same way quantize, give the problem not

Note Ons aren't quantized (delayed) if Note Retrig is enabled..  Re: durations, It's more useful that way, because one might want shortened notes without having to use the gate graph, and one can always quantize source notes/durations.  

ok thanks,  the hold mode can enable, here is same, when press another key, the note stop immediate and on next step start the new note. maybe in hold mode it is usefull that old note is not stop immediate ?

I notice that it seem not possible even if gate knob full right (long) that notes are overlap play. overlap play is need for legato play and slice portamento. I use sample tank 3(but all synths can do this i guess) and when set to legato monophonic mode(for lead sounds), the note is slide into new note when the new note is set to on before the old note is set to off.

in theory this should work in cthulhu too, when i set the  gate knob a little to right and reduce the length in gate tab for notes i want not play legato. but even at full right, the notes do not overlap. only all reduce is possible

Well the arp is fundamentally monophonic streams.  You could use a secondary MIDI plugin (such as Ableton's note length) if you need overlaps for portamento.  Or, print the MIDI and do it in the host.

So is there a magic trick to getting rid of the delay in logic 9? So times its on time sometimes not. That first note. hmmmmmm

I play it on time it record but on playback there is a delay. So I just have to +Delay the plugin?

Yes, Logic X has much more accurate timing as they added MIDI FX support.
