down notes) press the hold button.
4. On the front panel, adjust settings such as mode, octave range, repeats,
and bpm.

Arpeggiator “Momentary Sustain” Mode
The TEO-5 allows you to use the sustain pedal to turn the Arpeggiator’s
Hold function on and off and perform other Arpeggiator-related func-
tions. To access this feature, use the foot function setting in the global
menu.
ere are three modes to choose from:
• sustain - With the Arp running in this mode, pressing and holding the
Sustain pedal sustains the notes, as the Sustain pedal normally would.
• arp hold - With the Arpeggiator running in this mode, pressing the
Sustain pedal once causes the Arpeggiator to hold the sequence (even
when you release the notes on the keyboard). Pressing it again stops the
Arpeggiator.
• arp hold mom - With the Arpeggiator running in this mode, pressing
and holding the Sustain pedal causes the Arpeggiator to sustain (even
when you release the notes on the keyboard) for as long as you hold
down the pedal. Releasing the Sustain pedal stops the Arpeggiator.
To select the Arpeggiator’s sustain pedal mode:
1. Press the global button then use the select knob to scroll to foot func-
tion.
2. Use the value knob to select sustain, arp hold, or arp hold mom,
depending on your preference. Press the global button again to exit the
Global menu.
