e Creating Arpeggios
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 arpeg-
gio 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.

Press the [ARPEGGIO ON/OFF] button to turn the arpeg-
gio function on.
● Voices and the Arpeggio Function
This instrument lets you select a variety of “voices” that you can play
via the keyboard. When you select a voice number between 129 and 143
the arpeggio function will automatically be engaged so you can start
playing arpeggios immediately. The arpeggio function will automati-
cally be turned off when you select any other voice.
If you want to use voices 129–143 for normal performance without the
arpeggio function, press the [ARPEGGIO ON/OFF] button to turn the
arpeggio function off after selecting the voice.
