Making Arpeggio Settings (Arpeggio)

The function that allows you to perform arpeggios (chords whose notes are played sequentially rather than together) from a chord’s constituent notes, just by playing the chord, is called “Arpeggiater.”

You can make more detailed arpeggio settings, including tempo and range.

For more on switching the Arpeggiator on and off, refer to

“Creating Arpeggios from the Chords You Play

([ARPEGGIO])” (p. 49).
