About Arpeggio Styles
An Arpeggio Style is a series of data for basic arpeggio patterns
and chord styles recorded in the form of a grid consisting of a
maximum of 32 steps x 16 pitches.
fig.GRID
Each grid contains one of the following kinds of data.
• ON: Note On (with Velocity data)
• TIE: Tie (hold of the previous note)
• REST: Rest (no sound played)
The keys that are pressed along with the sequence in which they
are pressed is referenced to the “lowest-pitched key during
input.” Thus, you can use a single Arpeggio Style in different
Patches and Performances at the same time.
A Arpeggio Style is not part of any patch or Performance, but
rather independent data; you can store up to 64 Arpeggio Styles.
