20 MM6/MM8 Owner’s Manual
The arpeggio function lets you create arpeggios (broken chords) by simply playing the required notes on
the keyboard. For example, you could play the notes of a triad—the root, third, and fifth—and the arpeggio
function will automatically create a variety of interesting arpeggio-type phrases. By changing the arpeggio
type and the notes you play it is possible to create a wide range of patterns and phrases that can be used for
music production as well as performance.
1Press the [ARPEGGIO ON/OFF] button to turn Arpeggio
on.
2Play a note or notes on the keyboard to trigger Arpeggio
playback.
The rhythm pattern or phrase that plays depends on the actual notes or
chords you play, as well as on the selected Arpeggio type.
3When you have finished using with the arpeggio function,
press the [ARPEGGIO ON/OFF] button to turn it off.

Using the Arpeggio Function

• The Arpeggio function can only

ted via MIDI channel 2.
