gram

Arpeggiator on/off

Each time you press the ARPEGGIATOR [ON/OFF] key, the arpeggiator will be switched on or off. When on, the LED will light. When you play the keyboard, an arpeggio will play according to the selected arpeggio pattern.

The on/off setting is stored when the program is written.

Arpeggiator settings

1In Program P7: Edit-Arpeggiator, select the Arpeg.Setup tab.

2In “Arpeggiator Tempo,” set the tempo.

You can also rotate the ARPEGGIATOR [TEMPO] knob to adjust this. The LED will blink at the speci- fied timing.

If “MIDI Clock” (Global P1: MIDI) setting is set to External MIDI or External PCI/F, this setting will be displayed as “ =” EXT. This allows the tempo to synchronize to an external MIDI device. In this case, it is not possible to adjust the tempo on the TRI- TON.

Select from preset arpeggio patterns P000–P004and user arpeggio patterns U000–231. You can use numeric keys [0]–[9] to select user arpeggio patterns U000–231.

The way in which the pattern is played will depend on settings such as “Octave” and “Sort.” P000–P004in the following diagrams show how the arpeggio will be played when “Octave” is set to 1, and “Sort” is checked. P004: RANDOM is one possibility.
