About arpeggiator synchroniza-

tion

The note timing of the arpeggiator will depend on the setting of its “Key Sync.” check box.

If this is checked, the arpeggiator will operate at the timing that you play the first note-on after having released all notes.

If this is unchecked, the arpeggiator will synchronize to the timing of the internal/external MIDI clock.

The following paragraphs explain how synchroniza- tion occurs when the “Key Sync.” check box is not checked.

Arpeggiator and sequencer synchronization in Sequencer or Song Play mode

When MIDI Clock (Global P1: MIDI “MIDI Clock”) is set to “ ” EXT in Sequencer mode, the arpeggiator will synchronize to the external MIDI sequencer etc. connected via a MIDI cable.

In Song Play mode, it is not possible to synchronize to an external MIDI clock.

When the song is stopped:

The arpeggiator will synchronize to the “ ” based on the timing of the internal/external MIDI clock.

When a Sequencer mode RPPR pattern is playing, the arpeggiator will synchronize to the “ ” based on that timing.

When the song is playing or recording:

The arpeggiator will synchronize to the “ ” based on the timing of the song.

In Sequencer mode when the ARPEGGIATOR [ON/OFF] key is on, and you press a note during the pre-count before recording to start up the arpeggiator, the arpeggiator will start from the beginning of the pattern simultaneously with the start of recording, and will be recorded.

Synchronization with song start

When the arpeggiator is on (ARPEGGIATOR [ON/ OFF] key is set to on) and is running, an incoming Song Start message will cause the arpeggiator to reset to the beginning of the pattern.

Synchronization with an external sequencer in Program or Combination mode

When MIDI Clock (Global P1: MIDI “MIDI Clock”) is set to “ ” EXT in Program or Combination modes, the arpeggiator will synchronize to MIDI Clock or Start messages etc. received from an external MIDI sequencer etc. connected via a MIDI cable.

Synchronization with external MIDI clock

The arpeggiator will synchronize to the “ ” based on the timing of the external MIDI clock.

Synchronization with song start

If the arpeggiator is on and running, receiving a song start will reset the arpeggiator to the beginning of the pattern.

Synchronizing arpeggiators A and B

In Combination, Sequencer, or Song Play modes, the two arpeggiators can be operated simultaneously. At this time if one arpeggiator is running and the other arpeggiator (whose “Key Sync.” is not checked) is started, the second arpeggiator will synchronize to the “ ” based on the timing of the first arpeggiator.

If “Key Sync.” is checked, arpeggiators A and B will operate with independent timing.
