MIDI Bank Mode (BankMode)
TheBankModeyouchoosedetermineshowbanknumberswillbesentoverMIDIwhenthe

Arpeggiator
TheArpeggiatorparameterdeterminesifthecurrentZonecanbeplayedbyanarpeggiator.
Normally,theArpeggiatorparametershouldbesettoOn,andthearpeggiatorforeachZone
shouldbeturnedonoroffwiththeActiveparameterontheARPEGGIATORpageforeachZone
(seeTheARPEGGIATORPage on page 7
‐35fordetails.)IftheArpeggiatorparameterissettoOff,
thezonewillnotbearpeggiatedeveniftheActiveparameterontheARPEGGIATORpageisset
