Arpeggio related settings
There are several methods for triggering and stopping the Arpeggio playback. In addition, you can set whether or not
SFX sounds and special Accent Phrases are triggered along with the normal sequence data. This section covers the
Arpeggio related parameters which can be set in the Voice, Performance and Mixing modes.
The following three settings are available for turning the Arpeggio playback on/off.
NOTE
For the displays including the “Hold” and “TriggerMode” parameters, see MAIN display and PLAY FX display
of the Arpeggio Edit for Voice mode (page 28), Performance mode (page 58), and Song/Pattern mode (page
83).
NOTE When receiving the MIDI sustain message (control change #64) with “Arp Sw” set to “on,” you can obtain the
same result by setting “Common Switch” and “Part Switch” to “on.”
When the ARP lamp is turned on by pressing the Knob Function 2 button a few times, you can use
knobs 5 – 8 to control Arpeggio playback. Try this out and listen for the changes in the sound. For
details regarding the effect of the knobs 5 – 8, see “Knob Functions” of the Voice mode (page 54).
Accent Phrases are composed of sequence data included in some Arpeggio types, sounding only
when you play notes at a velocity higher (stronger) than that specified in the Accent Velocity Threshold
parameter. If it is hard to play at velocities necessary to trigger the Accent Phrase, set the “AccntVelTh”
(Accent Velocity Threshold) parameter to a lower value.
NOTE
For the displays including the “AccntVelTh” parameters, see PLAY FX display of the Arpeggio Edit for Voice
mode (page 28), Performance mode (page 58), and Song/Pattern mode (page 83).
NOTE For information on Arpeggio types that use this function, refer to the “Arpeggio Type List” in the “Data List”
PDF document.
