You can use keyboard ranges or playing velocity to
operate the arpeggiator, or to switch between arpeg-
giators A and B. By setting the COMBI 3.3: Ed-Key
Zone, Key page and COMBI 3.4: Ed-Vel Zone, Vel
page to set keyboard ranges and velocity ranges in
conjunction with each other, you can create even
more variations.
9 If you wish to save the edited combination settings
in internal memory, turn off memory protect in
Global mode ( p.37), and write the combination.
( p.38).
0 The "Status," "MIDI Channel" and "Assign" set-
tings shown in the LCD screen of steps 2 and 3
can be made so that certain timbres will sound
only when the arpeggiator is On, and will be silent
when the arpeggiator is not Off.
Although this is a somewhat sophisticated editing
technique, we will describe the settings of one of the
preset combinations as an example.
Combination I–A003: Drum'n'Bass Set
Select combination I–A003: Drum'n'Bass Set, and play
it.
Before you play, make sure that the global MIDI chan-
nel (GLOBAL 2.1: MIDI "MIDI Channel") is set to 01.
• Arpeggiator A is assigned to T (timbre) 7 and 8.
When you play the keyboard, the arpeggio pattern
U158 (I-A/B): Drum'n'Bass 6 will sound only the
T8 program I-B068: Drum'n'Bass Kit.
• The arpeggio pattern uses the Fixed Note setting,
which is appropriate when playing a drum
arpeggio. ("Fixed Note" is checked in, GLOBAL
6.1: Arp.Pattern, Setup page.) With this setting, the
arpeggio pattern will always play the specified
pitches regardless of the note numbers received
from the keyboard. ( PG p.121)
• The A "Key Btm" and "Key Top" (COMBI 6.1: Ed-
Arp. Scan Zone page) are set so that arpeggiator A
will operate only for notes B3 and lower.
• Arpeggiator A is also assigned to T7, but this is so
that the T8 program I–B068: Drum'n'Bass Kit will
sound only when the arpeggiator is on.

• If the arpeggiator is off, playing the keyboard will
sound the timbre(s) that are set to Gch or to the
global MIDI channel (in this case, 01). Since the
"MIDI Channel" of T8 is set to 02, it will not sound.
T7 is set to Gch, but since "Status" is Off it will not
sound.
• Any MIDI channel that is assigned to a timbre will
trigger the arpeggiator. In this case, these will be
"MIDI Channel" 02 and Gch (global MIDI
channel). When the arpeggiator is on, playing the
keyboard will trigger arpeggiator A which is
assigned to T7 (Gch). T8 will be sounded by

arpeggiator A. Since the "Status" of T7 is Off, it
will not sound.
• Since the "Status" of T7 is Off, it will not sound,
regardless of whether the arpeggiator is on or off. It
is a dummy timbre that causes T8 to sound only
when the arpeggiator is on.
Combination I–B086: [<Moon Jam>]
Select and play combination I–B086: [<Moon Jam>].
Before you play, make sure that the global MIDI chan-
nel (GLOBAL 2.1: MIDI "MIDI Channel") is set to 01.
• Arpeggiator A is assigned to T3, and arpeggiator B
is assigned to T6 and 7. When you play the
keyboard, the T3 program I–A012: Smooth Sine
Lead will be sounded by the arpeggio pattern P000:
UP. The T6 program I–A020: House Kit will be
sounded by the arpeggio pattern U161 (I–A/B):
House 1 BD&SD.
• The A and B "Key Btm" and "Key Top" (COMBI
6.1: Ed-Arp., Scan Zone page) are set so that
arpeggiators A and B will operate only for the C4
note and above.
• Arpeggiator B is assigned to T7 as well, but this
setting is so that the T6 program I–A020: House
Kit will sound only when the arpeggiator is on.
Refer to the preceding section "Select and play
Combination I–A003: Drum'n Bass Set."
Linking the arpeggiator to the combi-
nation
If you want the arpeggiator settings of a combination
to become active when that combination is selected,
check "Combi" for "Auto Arp" (GLOBAL 1.1: System,
Basic page).
