Arpeggiator function

Changing the length of the arpeggiated notes
• By selecting the arpeggiator control [GATE] and
adjusting the value, you can change the duration of the
arpeggiated notes.
Negative “–” values make the notes shorter, and positive
“+” values lengthen them. If this is 00, the note length
will be as specified by the program parameter Gate (P-
ARP> SETUP page).
Note: It is effective to adjust the Release on the PROG>
TONE page.
Note: You can also change the duration of the arpeggiated
notes by adjusting ARP-GATE (the KNOB 2 knob) in the
TEMPO row of REALTIME CONTROLS. (Please see
page 308 of the Parameter Guide)
Changing the strength of the arpeggiated notes
• By selecting the arpeggiator control [VEL] (Velocity)
and adjusting the value, you can change the strength of
the arpeggiated notes.
Negative “–” values make the notes weaker, and positive
“+” values strengthen them. If this is 00, the strength of
the notes will be as specified by the program parameter
Velocity (P-ARP> SETUP page).
Note: It is effective to adjust Cutoff, Resonance, and EG
Intensity in the PROG> TONE page.
Giving a shuffle feel to the arpeggio pattern
• By selecting the arpeggiator control [SWING] and
adjusting the value, you can shift the timing of the even-
numbered arpeggiated notes forward or backward.
Negative “–” settings will make the even-numbered notes
earlier; positive “+” settings will make them later. If this
is at the center position (12 o’clock), the setting will be as
specified by the program parameter Swing (P-ARP>
SETUP page).
Note: Swing has no effect on the preset patterns.
