804| KAOSS Effects
Using the KAOSS effects
Using the KAOSS effects is just a matter of letting the instrument play,
or playing some notes, and swiping your finger in the KAOSS pad area to
change the music flow.
Starting the original music flow
Transformation vs. Arpeggiator
There are two general categories of KAOSS effects:
▪ Transformation effects, where the music flow generated by the Arranger or
Player is processed to create new music.
▪ Arpeggiator effects, where the latest recognized chord, or the notes you
play on the Upper part of the keyboard, are used to generate an arpeggio.
The name of these presets begin with Arpeggio.
Choose the original music flow
▪ Go to the Style Play or Song Play mode, and either choose a Style or a MIDI
Song.
▪ If you want to play an arpeggio, choose a Keyboard Set including the Sounds
you want to arpeggiate.
Choose a KAOSS preset
▪ Choose a KAOSS Preset or Favorite Preset, as seen above.
▪ If you want to play an arpeggio, choose a preset whose name begins with
Arpeggio.
Start the accompaniment or the Song
▪ Depending on whether you are in Style Play or Song Play mode, start the
accompaniment or the Song as usual.
▪ If you are using an Arpeggiator preset, play a chord or some notes on the
Upper part of the keyboard and touch the pad. You do not need to start the
accompaniment or Song.
