About user arpeggio patterns
ThepatternsthatcanbeselectedontheKROME’s
arpeggiatorarecalled“arpeggiopatterns.”Thereare
twotypesofarpeggiopatterns:presetarpeggio
patternsanduserarpeggiopatterns.
Presetarpeggiopatterns:
Therearefivepatterns;UP,DOWN,ALT1,ALT2,and
RANDOM.
Thefunctionalityofthesepatternsisfixed,andcannot
beedited.

Editing a user arpeggio pattern
Ifyouwanttoeditauserarpeggiopattern,you
mustfirstmakesurethatmemoryprotectis
unchecked.(Seepage 197oftheParameterGuide)
IfyouenterthismodefromtheProgrammode,your
editingwillapplytothearpeggiopatternspecifiedfor
theselectedprogram.
1. InProgrammode,selectaprogramwhichusesthe
arpeggiopatternyouwishtoedit,oraprogram
thatyouwishtouseasabasisforeditingthe
