Creating Arpeggios
The Arpeggio function lets you create arpeggios (broken chords) by simply pressing
the notes of the chord. For example, you could play the notes of a triad—the root, third,
and fifth—to trigger interesting phrases. This feature can be used for music production
as well as performance.
1
Press the [ARPEGGIO] button to turn on
the Arpeggio function.
2
Press a note or notes to trigger Arpeg-
gio.
The Arpeggio phrase differs depending on the
number of pressed notes and the area of the key-
board.
When Split is on, Arpeggio is applied only to the
Split Voice. When Split is off, Arpeggio is applied
to the Main and Dual Voices. Arpeggio cannot be
applied to the Split and Main/Dual Voices simulta-
neously.
