Arpeggiator Settings (Arpeggio)
fig.05-11_50
For details on the setting, refer to “How to Make the
Performance Settings” (p. 91).
Arpeggio
Switch (Arpeggio Switch)
Switches the Arpeggiator on/off.
Value: OFF, ON
Hold (Arpeggio Hold Switch)
Switch between Hold On/Hold Off for the Arpeggiator
performance.
Value: OFF, ON
Style (Arpeggio Style)
Specifies the basic way in which the arpeggio will be played.
For details regarding Arpeggio Style, refer to “Arpeggio Style
List” (Sound/Parameter List).
Variation (Arpeggio Variation)
The arpeggiator provides several variations (performance patterns)
for each arpeggio style. This parameter selects the variation number.
The number of variations will differ according to the arpeggio style.
Motif (Arpeggio Motif)
Sets the order in which notes of the chord will sound.
Value
UP: Notes you press will be sounded, beginning from low to high.
DOWN: Notes you press will be sounded, from high to low.
UP&DOWN: Notes you press will be sounded, from low to high, and
then back down from high to low.
RANDOM: Notes you press will be sounded, in random order.
NOTE ORDER: Notes you press will be sounded in the order in
which you pressed them. By pressing the notes in the appropriate
order you can produce melody lines. Up to 128 notes will be
remembered.
GLISSANDO: Each chromatic step between the highest and lowest
notes you press will sound in succession, repeating upward and
downward. Press only the lowest and the highest notes.
CHORD: All notes you press will sound simultaneously.
AUTO1: The timing at which keys will sound will be assigned
automatically, giving priority to the lowest key that was pressed.
AUTO2: The timing at which keys will sound will be assigned
automatically, giving priority to the highest key that was pressed.
PHRASE: Pressing a single key will sound the phrase based on the
pitch of that key. If multiple keys are pressed, the last-pressed key
will be valid.
Accent Rate (Arpeggio Accent Rate)
Modifies the strength of accents and the length of the notes to adjust
the “groove” feel of the arpeggio. A setting of “100%” will produce
the most pronounced groove feel.
Value: 0–100%
Shuffle Rate (Arpeggio Shuffle Rate)
This setting lets you modify the note timing to create shuffle
rhythms.
With a setting of “50%” the notes will be spaced evenly. As the value
is increased, the note timing will have more of a “dotted” (shuffle)
feel.
Value: 0–100%
fig.Shuffle Rate
Shuffle Resolution (Arpeggio Shuffle
Resolution)
Specify the timing resolution in terms of a note value. The note value
can be specified as either an 16th note or a eighth note.
Value: ,
Keyboard Velocity (Arpeggio Keyboard
Velocity)
Specifies the loudness of the notes that you play.
If you want the velocity value of each note to depend on how
strongly you play the keyboard, set this parameter to “REAL.” If you
want each note to have a fixed velocity regardless of how strongly
you play the keyboard, set this parameter to the desired value (1–
127).
Value: REAL, 1–127
Octave Range (Arpeggio Octave Range)
Sets the key range in octaves over which arpeggio will take place. If
you want the arpeggio to sound using only the notes that you
actually play, set this parameter to “0.” To have the arpeggio sound
using the notes you play and notes 1 octave higher, set this
parameter to “+1.” A setting of “-1” will make the arpeggio sound
using the notes you play and notes 1 octave lower.
Value: -3– +3
