4.6 Arpeggio Pattern settings (Pattern Define)
Each arpeggio
pattern
contains arpeggio parameters that specify
how
arpeggiation is performed. Let's
try modifying these settings.

Use the PAGE keys to move to the UP-1 [Arpeggio Par am] page. Notice the setting of
StB:
)l. This means that a Step Base of a eight note will be used to arpeggiate the notes. Rotate
knob 1 to modify this setting. This will affect the interval of the arpeggio notes.
Notice the setting of Sort:ON. This means that the notes
you
press
on
the keyboard will
be sorted from lowest note to highest note before arpeggiation. Play a chord
and
notice
that the arpeggio is played from low to
high
note. Rotate knob 2 to set this to Sort:OFF,
and
play
a chord again. This time the notes of

Use the PAGE keys to
move
to
the
UP-2 [Velocity Param] page. Notice
the
setting of
Vel:KEY. This
means
that
the
velocity of
the
arpeggiated
notes
will
depend
on
the
velocity
with
which
you
played
the
notes
on
the keyboard. Play a
chord
with
notes of
different velocity,
and
notice
how
the
arpeggio
playback
changes. Rotate knob 1
and
make a setting of Vel:001-127,
and
the arpeggio will be
played
with
a constant velocity
regardless of strongly
you
played the keyboard.
Use the PAGE keys to move to the UP-3 [Gate Param] page. Notice the setting of Gt:80%.
This means
that
the length (gate time) of the arpeggio notes will be 80% of the length of
the Time Base. Rotate knob 1 to
modify
the setting
in
the
range
of
Gt:OOl-100%,
and
notice
how
the gate time changes.
The velocity
and
gate
time
of
the
arpeggio
notes
can
be
controlled
by
the
various
controllers while you play. Select the controller that
you
wish to use
in
the Global section
page
GLB-6 [Arpeggio Controller].
Press
the
PATTERN DEFINE key.
Next
press
the
PERFORMANCE/EDIT key to
make
the
lower
LED blink. Press
the
GLOBAL key to
enter the Global section. Use the PAGE keys to move to GLB-6.
With
the factory settings, velocity will
be
controlled
by
Control
Change
#24,
and
gate
time will be controlled
by
Control Change
#25.
Use knob 2 to set "Vel:ATouch"
and
use
knob 4 to set
"Gate:ATouch". Press the PATTERN DEFINE key to make the LED light.
Use the PAGE keys to
move
to UP-3 [Gate Param],
and
use knob 1 to set "Gt:20%"
and
knob 3 to set "Int+99".
Hold
down
the notes
on
the keyboard
that
you
wish
to arpeggiate,
and
then
press
down
on
the keyboard more firmly to modify
the
gate time.
Now
let's change the velocity of the arpeggio notes. So that the effect will easy to notice,
reset UP-3 [Gate Param] to "Gt:80%"
and
"Int+OO". Then use the PAGE keys to move to
the
UP-2 [Velocity
Param]
page.
Use
knob
1 to
set
"Vel:020"
and
use
knob
3
to
set
"lnt+99". As
you
did
earlier, play a chord
and
then
play
harder
on
the keyboard to notice
how
the velocity of the arpeggio notes will change.
