EFFECTS
The Arpeggiator effect lets you automatically create a variety of patterns
and arpeggios in the Main voice, simply by holding one or more keys in the
PERFORMANCE section of the keyboard. A total of sixteen different
Arpeggiator types are available.
The speed of the Arpeggiator depends on the BPM setting (page 41). The
speed can also be controlled as you play with the ASSIGN knob or RIBBON
CONTROLLER (when either of those controls are set to “Arpeggiator
Speed”; see pages 64 and 67).

saved when you turn off the
power. If you wish to save
them, save them to a User
bank in the Performance
Setup feature (page 56).

when the Arpeggiator is
turned on, the Arpeggiator
effect begins only when
another key is pressed. If
