About arpeggio styles

An Arpeggio Style is a series of data for basic arpeggio patterns and chord styles recorded in the form of a grid
consisting of a maximum of 32 steps x 16 pitches.
To make arpeggio settings (including arpeggio styles), you'll need to use SH-201 Editor.
The following illustration shows the Arpeggio window of SH-201 Editor.

Each grid contains one of the following kinds of data.
• On (Note On): Play a note (with velocity data)
• Tie: Hold the preceding note
• Rest: Don't play a note
This records the position of each key you play relative to "the lowest-pitched key (note) you played," and the
order in which you play each key.
* One arpeggio style can be saved for each patch.
