Arpeggio Settings—[F2] ARP Main
(Arpeggio Main)
This display determines the basic settings of the Arpeggio.
The settings of parameters (! or more) shown at the
bottom of the display can be registered to the [SF1] – [SF5]
buttons.
n The Four-Part display cannot be called up from this display.
n The KBD icon is shown on the tab corresponding to the [SF6]
button depending on the selected parameter. In this condition,
you can enter the note number or velocity by pressing the
appropriate note on the keyboard while holding the [SF6] KBD
button. For details, see page 82.
1 Switch*
Determines whether Arpeggio for each Part is on or off.
Settings: off, on
2 Hold*
When this is set to “on,” the Arpeggio cycles automatically,
even if you release your fingers from the keys, and it
continues to cycle until the next key is pressed.
Settings: sync-off (see below), off, on
sync-off
When set to “sync-off,” the Arpeggio playback continues to run silently,
even when you release the keys. Pressing any key turns the Arpeggio
playback on again.
n For details about how to use the Arpeggio Type List in Data
List 2 (separate online documentation), see page 63.
3 Change Timing*
Determines the actual timing at which the Arpeggio type is
switched when you select another type during Arpeggio
playback. When set to “realtime,” the Arpeggio type is
switched immediately. When set to “measure,” the
Arpeggio type is switched at the top of the next measure.
Settings: realtime, measure
4 Velocity Limit
Determines the lowest and highest velocity which can
trigger the Arpeggio playback. This lets you set the velocity
range with which you press the note to trigger the Arpeggio
playback. You can also create separate low and high
trigger ranges for the Arpeggio playback, with a velocity
“hole” in the middle, by specifying the maximum value first.
For example, setting a Velocity Limit of 93 – 34 lets you play
the Arpeggio from two separate velocity ranges: soft (1 –
34) and hard (93 – 127). Notes played at middle velocities
between 35 and 92 do not play the Arpeggio.
Settings: 1 – 127
n Please keep in mind that no sound is produced when the Key
Mode is set to “sort” or “thru” and notes are played outside the
Note Limit setting here.
5 Note Limit
Determines the lowest and highest notes in the Arpeggio’s
note range. Notes played in this range trigger the
Arpeggio. For example, setting a Note Limit of “C5 – C4”
lets you trigger the Arpeggio by playing notes in the two
ranges of C -2 to C4 and C5 to G8; notes played between
C4 and C5 have no effect on the Arpeggio.
Settings: C -2 – G8
n Please keep in mind that no sound is produced when the Key
Mode is set to “sort” or “thru” and notes are played outside the
Note Limit setting here.
6 Voice with ARP
To each type of the Arpeggio, the appropriate Voice is
registered. This parameter determines whether or not the
appropriate Voice registered to each Arpeggio type is
assigned to the edited Part. When set to “on,” the appropriate
Voice is assigned to the edited Part in place of the currently
assigned Voice. When set to “off,” the appropriate Voice is not
assigned to the edited Part. The currently assigned Voice is
maintained. The name of the Voice registered to the Arpeggio
Type is shown at the right side.
Settings: off (not copied), on (copied)
7 Tempo*
Determines the Arpeggio Tempo.
Settings: 5.0 – 300.0
