Basic
The [STORE] button is used to store the current scene or mute
settings to one of the 5 available memory locations: [MEMORY
1] ~ [MEMORY 5]. The selected type of data is stored when a
scene/mute memory button — [MEMORY 1] ~ [MEMORY 5]
— is pressed while the [STORE] button is held. When pressed
alone the [MEMORY 1] ~ [MEMORY 5] buttons recall the
stored scene or mute data.
Store and recall operations cannot be carried out in the sampling
mode.

Arpeggiator
This function automatically plays notes and chords played on the
keyboard as arpeggios. In addition to driving the tone generator
block, arpeggio data can be sent to the sequencer block and
recorded as sequence data to a phrase or song, or transmitted to
external equipment via the MIDI OUT connectors.
Arpeggios are also sometimes known as “broken chords”, and are
used frequently in modern dance and techno styles. To play auto-
mated arpeggios press the [ARPEGGIO ON] button so that its
indicator lights and play a chord on the keyboard.

put of the tone generator block. Three effect stages are provided
