The Arpeggiator (ARP) Page
Overplay: Notes are arpeggiated only when the Latch switch is turned on while notes are
held. Overplay latches any keys that are being held when the Latch switch is turned on.
Latched keys continue arpeggiating after they are released until the Latch switch is turned
off. Any notes that you play after the Latch switch is turned on do not get arpeggiated.
Arpeg: Notes are arpeggiated only when the Latch switch is turned on while notes are held.
Arpeg latches any keys that are being held when the Latch switch is turned on. Latched keys
continue arpeggiating after they are released until the Latch switch is turned off. Any notes
that you play after the Latch switch has been turned on become part of the arpeggiation, and
they drop out of the arpeggiation as soon as you release them.
Add: Notes are arpeggiated only when the Latch switch is turned on while notes are held.
Add latches any keys that are being held when the Latch switch is turned on, and also latches
any notes played after this. Latched keys continue arpeggiating after they are released until
the Latch switch is turned off.
Auto: Every note you play is automatically latched, and the Arpeggiator runs as long as you
hold at least one arpeggiated note. As long as you keep holding on at least one note (it doesn't
have to be the same note the whole time), every note you play in the arpeggiation range gets
latched.
Autohold is similar to Auto. Holding at least one arpeggiated note on and playing other
notes latches those notes. Unlike in Auto mode, if you stop holding at least one arpeggiated
note on, the arpeggiation continues playing (although you can't latch any more notes). In
this case, if you strike another key within the arpeggiation range, you start a new arpeggiation
sequence. Autohold is useful for arpeggiating chords: when you play a chord, it gets latched,
and continues arpeggiating after you release the chord. When you play another chord, the
previous chord gets unlatched, and the new one gets latched. You can use the front panel
ARP button to stop arpeggiation at any time.
1NoteAuto is similar to Autohold, except only the last note played is latched (even if
previously played notes are still being held). 1NoteAuto is specifically designed for use with
Shift Patterns (see
played from one note at a time (though you can use 1NoteAuto without a Shift Pattern
as well). Using 1NoteAuto ensures that Shift Patterns will sound correct by only allowing
one note at a time to trigger the pattern. You can use the ARP button in the front panel
ARPEGGIATOR section to stop arpeggiation at any time.
1NoteAutoLow and 1NoteAutoHi are also designed for use with Shift Patterns. They work
similarly to 1NoteAuto, except 1NoteAutoLow always latches the lowest note when holding
multiple notes, and 1NoteAutoHi always latches the highest note when holding multiple
notes. You can also use these latch types without a Shift Pattern if desired. You can use the
ARP button in the front panel ARPEGGIATOR section to stop arpeggiation at any time.

Limit Option

This parameter determines what the Arpeggiator does when it has shifted the currently
arpeggiated notes up (or down) to the value set by the Shift Limit parameter.
