Changing the way that the Arpeggio sounds
By changing the octave range or accenting of a phrase, you can add variety
to a repeating phrase. Even if you continue holding down the same chord on
the keyboard, you can make the phrase keep evolving by continuing to turn
the knobs.

Press [ARPEGGIO] to turn on the Arpeggio function.
2.
Press the button located at the right of the panel knobs to make the "ARP/RHY" indicator light.
3.
Hold down a chord on the keyboard.

Explanation and suggestions for use
Changes the octave range of the phrase:
This specifies the range of pitches in which the arpeggiated phrase will
sound, in units of one octave. Since the range can be extended as much
as three octaves, you can produce phrases that have dramatic changes
in pitch. You can also use this knob to adjust the Octave Range while
you perform.
Changes the way in which accents occur:
This adjusts the volume accents of the arpeggiated phrase. Increasing
this value will emphasize the loud/soft dynamics. Lowering this value
will produce flatter dynamics, but may give you a greater sense of
"speed" for techno-style phrases.
Adjusts the accent of the rhythm pattern. Refer to "Using the Rhythm
Pattern function to create phrases" (p. 28)
Adjusts the tempo.
It adjusts the tempo of the Arpeggio. This tempo is the same as the tem-
po of the sequencer. This means that when you use the Arpeggio togeth-
er with the sequencer, the arpeggio will always stay in synchronization
with the song tempo.
