Playing Arpeggiator Sequences
1. Switch on the Arpeggiator by pressing the ARP (Edit) button on the keyboard.
2. Press a number of keys to start the Arpeggiator.
3. The Arpeggiator automatically plays back the notes corresponding to the pressed keys as a
sequence, rather than simultaneously.
Editing Arpeggiator Parameters
You can also edit the Arpeggiator parameters in the Control section for further tweaking of the se-
quence:
1. Press SHIFT + ARP (Edit) to map the knobs of the Control section to the Arpeggiator pa-
rameters.
2. To change the direction of the sequence to e.g., UP-DOWN, turn Knob 2 (TYPE, by default
set to UP).
3. To adjust the OCTAVES reach of the Arpeggiator, turn Knob 6 (by default set to 1) to e.g., 4.
The notes corresponding to any keys you press are played back as a sequence, up and then
down again over four octaves.
4. To map the knobs to Instrument parameters again, press PLUG-IN. The Arpeggiator will still
be switched on.

peggiator sequence, use the MAIN parameters Mode and Type.
