the keyboard.
* You can use PART settings to specify the parts for which HOLD will or will
not be on.
* The I-ARPEGGIO [HOLD] button is either lit, blinking or off, according to
the settings of the on/off state for the button.
For details, refer to “System Parameters.
Selecting the Arpeggio Type
Heres how to change the arpeggio settings for parts 1–4. Some
arpeggio types are heard only for one part, and other arpeggio types

mind, and edit the tones and parameters to customize the arpeggio.
1. Turn the I-ARPEGGIO [TYPE] knob to select the type.
* With the factory settings, changing the type will specify a suitable sound
(TONE) and volume (PART LEVEL). If you want to keep the current tone
settings and change only the phrase, set the SYSTEM parameter Arpeggio
Set Tone to the OFF setting.
Selecting the Type of Rhythm

* With the factory settings, changing the rhythm will also set a suitable
tempo (TEMPO), sound (DRUM KIT), and volume (PART LEVEL). If you

repeated. This is convenient when you want to continue performing for a
while with the same accompaniment.
Changing the arpeggio according to the harmony you play

according to the pitches that you play on the keyboard.

changing the chord, turn KEYS off (unlit).
Changing the arpeggio at the timing of your playing
(BEAT)
You can specify whether the pattern will change according to the
rhythm inferred from the timing interval between the notes you play.
* The pitch of the notes you play on the keyboard is detected even if BEAT is
off (unlit). If you want to maintain the sense of beat while you play a chord
progression, turn BEAT off (unlit).
