Korg Speaker System owner manual Select the arpeggiators that will run, Settings in the LCD screen

●Press the “Key Sync.” check box in the LCD screen to make this setting.

Checked: When you take your hand completely off of the keyboard and then play the first note-on, the arpeggio pattern will start from the beginning. This setting is suitable when you want the arpeggio to start from the beginning of the measure as you are playing in realtime.

Unchecked: The arpeggio will always be synchro- nized to the MIDI clock tempo.

Sounding both the arpeggio notes and the notes you play

●Press the “Keyboard” check box to make this set- ting.

Checked: The notes you play on the keyboard and the notes played by the arpeggiator will both sound. Unchecked: Only the arpeggio notes will sound.

Other settings for the arpeggiator

You can also set “Gate,” “Velocity,” “Swing,” and “Scan Zone.” These parameters are set in Program P7: Arpeggiator (☞p.97).

Linking the arpeggiator to programs

You can specify whether the arpeggiator settings writ- ten in a program will change when the program is switched (check “Auto Arpeggiator”), or whether the state of the arpeggiator will not change (uncheck “Auto Arpeggiator”).

With the factory settings, the former is selected. Use the latter when you want to keep the same arpeggio pattern running, and change only the program sound. This setting is made in “Auto Arpeggiator” (Global P0: Basic tab).

Creating an user arpeggio pattern

Arpeggio patterns that you create can be written to U000–231.

These can be created in Global P6: User Arpeggio (☞p.100).

Using the arpeggiator as you play in Combination mode

In Combination mode the TRITON provides dual arpeggiators, allowing you to run two arpeggio pat- terns simultaneously.

1Press the [COMBI] key to enter Combination mode, and select a combination. (☞p.23 “Select- ing and playing a combination”)

As you select various combinations, you will notice that the ARPEGGIATOR [ON/OFF] key LED will light for some combinations. (☞p.32 “Linking the arpeggiator to combinations”) When you press the keyboard, the arpeggiator will start.

For other combinations, you can press the ARPEG- GIATOR [ON/OFF] key (the LED will light) to turn on the arpeggiator.

2As described in the preceding section “Settings using controllers” and the following section “Set- tings in the LCD screen,” move the controllers or modify the parameters to change the way in which the arpeggios are played.

The ARPEGGIATOR [ON/OFF] key, ARPEGGIA- TOR [TEMPO] knob, ARPEGGIATOR [GATE] knob, and ARPEGGIATOR [VELOCITY] knob will apply to both arpeggiators A and B. Their state is saved when the combination is written.

Settings in the LCD screen

●In Combination mode P0: Play, press the Arpeggio Play A tab.

Select the arpeggiator(s) that will run

Use the “Arpeggiator Run” check boxes to specify the arpeggiator(s) that you want to run. The arpeggiator(s) that are checked here will operate when the ARPEG- GIATOR [ON/OFF] key is on. However, the arpeggia- tor will play a timbre only if the table displayed beside the check boxes assigns arpeggiator A or B to a T (tim- bre) 1–8. These settings are made in Combination P7: Edit-arpeggiator Setup tab “Arpeggiator Assign” (☞p.98).
