Using the arpeggiator while you play Creating a user arpeggio pattern

3. When you play the keyboard as shown in the
illustration, the arpeggiator will begin playing.
Tone 0 corresponds to the pitch of the lowest key of
chord you play on the keyboard. (If Sort is unchecked,
it will correspond to the pitch of the first note you
play.)
4. For steps 01–08, make settings for “Pitch Offset,”
“Gate,” “Velocity,” and “Flam.”
Pitch Offset: This offsets the pitch of the arpeggio note
in semitones up or down. You can input the same tone
for each step, and change the Pitch Offset value for
each to create a melody using a single tone. (See
“Melody pattern”)
Gate: Specifies the length of the arpeggio note for each
step. With a setting of Legato, the note will continue
sounding either until the next note of the same tone or
until the end of the pattern. With a setting of Off, the
note will not sound.
Velocity: This specifies the strength of the note. With a
setting of Key, the note will sound at the strength of
how it was actually played.
The Gate and Velocity settings you select here will
be valid if the Gate and Velocity parameters
(Program P7: ARP/DT– ARP Setup page) of the
program selected in Program mode are set to Step.
If these parameters have a setting other than Step,
the Gate and Velocity that were specified for each
individual step will be ignored, and all notes of the
arpeggio will sound according to the settings in
Program P7: ARP/DT– ARP Setup page. Be sure to
verify the settings of the program.
When editing Gate, Velocity, and Swing, use the
SELECT button to select ARP, and set knob 1
(GATE) and knob 2 (VELOCITY) to the center
position (12 o’clock).
5. To change the user arpeggio pattern name, use the
“Rename Arpeggio Pattern” menu command. (See
page 221 of the Parameter Guide)
6. If you wish to save the edited user arpeggio
pattern to internal memory, be sure to Write the
user arpeggio pattern. (See page 221 of the
Parameter Guide)
If you turn off the power without writing, the edited
contents will be lost.
7. If you wish to save the state of the program at the
same time, return to Program mode and write the
program. (See page 115)
Other examples of creating a user
arpeggio pattern
Melody pattern
1. Press the alternate button.
2. In the touch grid, set tone 0 for “Step” 01, 02, 03, 04,
05, 07, and 08 (i.e., all but 06).
3. Specify the pitch. Set the “Step” 02 “Pitch” to +10,
“Step” 05 “Pitch” to +12, and the “Step” 08 “Pitch”
to –2.
4. Play a single key; the arpeggio will begin playing.
Chordal pattern
1. Press the alternate button.
2. In the touch grid, set tone 00 of “Step” 01.
3. In “Step” 03, 04, 06, and 07, set tones 00–04.
4. Select “Step” 01, and set “Gate” to Legato.
5. Select “Step” 06, and set “Gate” to Legato.
Note: To simulate the timing nuances of a strummed
guitar chord, select Flam. In Program mode, select an
acoustic guitar program, and choose the user arpeggio
pattern that you created here. In the Arpeg. Program
P7: ARP/DT– ARP Setup page, set Gate to Step.
