Step 2
3
Select the Category, Sub Category and Type of the
Arpeggio for each of the Parts 1 – 4.
The Category determines the instrument type, the Sub
Category determines the rhythm type, and the Type
determines the Arpeggio type itself. Set the BANK to "PRE"
when using a Preset Arpeggio type.
Note that the Arpeggio Hold parameter is useful as well as
the Arpeggio type selection. When this parameter is set to
"on," the Arpeggio playback continues even if the note is
released. This parameter should be set to "on" when the
Drum Voice is assigned to the Part and you wish to have
playback of the Arpeggio (rhythm pattern) continue
regardless of whether you hold the note or not.

NOTE
Categories and Sub Categories can easily be selected by
calling up their respective lists on the display. When moving
the cursor, for example, to the Category and pressing the
[SF6] button, the Category List appears at the cursor
location. You can select the desired one by using the data
dial, [INC/YES] and [DEC/NO] buttons. After selecting,
pressing the [ENTER] button actually calls up the selected
Arpeggio type. This operation is very useful and convenient
in selecting from the huge variety of available Arpeggios.
Go on and assign Arpeggio types in the same way to the
other [SF] buttons as desired.
Storing the Performance
After editing, make sure to store the created Performance to
internal memory by pressing the [STORE] button to call up
the Performance Store window.
The Store operation is the same as that of Voice Store
(page 27).
NOTICE
If you are editing a Performance and you select a different
Performance without storing the one being edited, all the edits you've
made will be erased.
NOTICE
The preset data of the Performances is stored in the User Bank
memory. Storing the Performance data you've created erases the
preset Performance data. If you wish to restore the preset data of the
Performance, execute the Factory Set Job in the Utility mode, which
results in the erasing of your original data. Consequently, make sure
to save any important data to an external USB storage device to avoid
losing important data.
For more information about Performances, refer to the
Performance mode chapter in the Reference Manual.
