MIDI
NOTE When you play the keyboard in the Mixing mode, the selected Part will not sound, but the Part assigned to the
same numbered Track as the selected part will sound, For example, when setting as in the above illustration,
playing the keyboard sounds Part 1 even if Part 2 is selected in the Mixing mode.
Sequencer block applied to the Performance mode
You can record your keyboard performance in the Performance mode to the Song or Pattern. You can
record knob operations, controller operations and Arpeggio playback as well as your keyboard playing
to the specified Track as MIDI events.
NOTE
In Performance recording, operating the knobs only result in the Control Change messages being recorded;
Parameter Change messages cannot be recorded. For details regarding Control Change messages, see the
“Synthesizer Parameter Manual” PDF document.
Arpeggio playback data for Parts 1 – 4 of the Performance will be recorded to the specified four Tracks
(in the REC TR display of Performance Record) of the Song/Pattern respectively. Your keyboard
performance and controller/knob operations (common to Parts 1 – 4) will be recorded to Tracks 1 – 4
separately.
NOTE
For details on operation, refer to the MOXF6/MOXF8 Owner’s Manual.
Arpeggio Block
This block lets you automatically trigger musical and rhythmic phrases using the current Voice by simply pressing a
note or notes on the keyboard. The Arpeggio sequence also changes in response to the actual notes or chords you
play, giving you a wide variety of inspiring musical phrases and ideas—both in composing and performing. Four
Arpeggio types can be played back at the same time even in the Song mode and Pattern mode.
Arpeggio categories
The Arpeggio types are divided into 16 categories (excepting “NoAsg”) as listed below. The categories are based on
instrument type.
Category List
NOTE Categories named “GtMG” and “BaMG” include Arpeggio types appropriate for using with a Mega Voice.
