Using the Arpeggiator Hold
With Arpeggiator Hold switched on, the arpeggiator will continue to play back, even after you have released your fingers from the notes on the keyboard. The same arpeggio pattern will be played back until you press another set of notes on the keyboard.
You can switch Arpeggiator Hold on/off by using Knob [2] to change the Hold parameter of the ARP Type screen.
Press the ARPEGGIO [HOLD] key for the Voice you edited earlier (for which you set the Note Limit parameter). With Arpeggio Hold switched on, the Arpeggiator will continue to play back, even after you have released your left hand from the keyboard. This leaves your left hand free to perform other tasks, such as adjusting the Sound Control knobs.

2Using Controllers
The S30 is equipped with Pitch Bend and Modulation Wheels. Either of the S30 is equipped with front panel Knobs [A], [B], [C], [1] and [2], with which you can control many different parameters.
Pitch Bend Wheel
This wheel’s prime function is to control pitch. Roll the wheel upward/downward to bend the pitch upward/downward. The effect can also be reversed.

Pitch Bend Range can be set for each Voice. The wheel can also be assigned other parameters (Page 69).
Even if a different parameter is assigned to the wheel, Pitch Bend messages are still transmitted through the MIDI Out when it is being used.
Modulation Wheel
The more you roll this wheel upwards, the greater the modulation that is applied to the sound.

Modulation depth can also be set beforehand. Also, the wheel can be assigned different parameters, such as Volume or Pan (Page 69).
