Sounding an arpeggio in the order of the pitches in
the chord you played
• The Sort parameter lets you select whether the notes of
the arpeggio will be sounded in the order of the pitches
in the chord you played (regardless of the order in which
you actually played the notes), or in the order that you
played the notes.
Checked: the arpeggio will play each note in the order of
its pitch, regardless of the order that you actually played
the notes.
Unchecked: the arpeggio will trigger each note in the
order that you actually played the notes.
Setting the arpeggio to continue playing even after
you have taken your hand off the keyboard
• The Latch parameter lets you select whether the
arpeggio will continue playing when you take your hand
off the keyboard, or whether the arpeggio will stop.
Checked: The arpeggio will continue playing even after
you remove your hand from the keyboard.
Unchecked: The arpeggio will stop playing when you
remove your hand from the keyboard.
Synchronizing the arpeggiator to your keyboard
timing
• The Key Sync. parameter lets you specify whether the
arpeggio will begin at the moment you play the
keyboard, or whether it will always play in
synchronization to the MIDI clock tempo.
Checked: The arpeggio pattern will start from the
beginning when you press a key. This setting is suitable
when you want the arpeggio to start from the beginning
of the measure as you are playing in realtime.
Unchecked: The arpeggiator will synchronize to the
MIDI clock timing.
Sounding both the arpeggio notes and the notes you
play
• The Keyboard parameter lets you specify whether the
notes that you play on the keyboard will be sounded
along with the arpeggiated notes.
Checked: The notes you play on the keyboard and the
notes played by the arpeggiator will both be heard.
Unchecked: Only the arpeggiated notes will sound.
Specifying the zone where the arpeggiator
will function
In P-ARP> SCAN ZONE page you can specify the range of
notes (keys) and velocities where the arpeggiator will
function.
Using the arpeggiator in
Combination mode
In Combination mode the KROSS provides dual arpeggiators,
allowing you to run two arpeggio patterns simultaneously.
1. In Combination mode, select a combination. (see
“Selecting Combinations” on page 41)
2. Each time you press the ARP button, the arpeggiator
will turn on or off.
Tip: As you select various combinations, you’ll notice
that the ARP button LED will light up for some
combinations. (see “Linking the arpeggiator to programs
or combinations” on page 71)
3. If the arpeggiator is on, an arpeggio will start playing
when you play the keyboard.
In some combinations or songs, depending on the
arpeggiator A and B settings, the arpeggiator might not
start even if you turn on the ARP and play the keyboard.
(see page 71)
4. Use the TEMPO knob or the TAP button to set the
tempo.
The ARP button, TEMPO knob, and TAP button will
apply to both arpeggiators A and B. Their state is saved
when the combination is written.
Selecting an arpeggio pattern and adjusting
settings
You can select an arpeggio pattern and specify how the
arpeggiator will function.
1. Access the COMBI> ARP page.
2. Notice how the arpeggio changes as described in
“Arpeggiator control (MOD)” on page 67, and
“Arpeggio pattern selection and operation settings”
on page 68.
