Arpeggio playback types

There are three main Arpeggio playback types as described below.
Arpeggios for Normal Voices
Arpeggio types (belonging to all categories except for DrPC and Cntr) created for use of Normal Voices
have the following three playback types.
Playback of played notes only
The Arpeggio is played back using only the played note(s) and octave notes.
Playback of a programmed sequence according to the played notes
These Arpeggio types have the several sequences each of which is suited for a certain chord type.
Even if you press only one note, the Arpeggio is played back using the programmed
sequence—meaning that notes other than the ones you play may be sounded. Pressing another note
triggers a transposed sequence using the pressed note as the new root note. Adding notes to those
already held changes the sequence accordingly. Arpeggios with this playback type have "_ES" at the
end of the type name.
Playback of a programmed sequence according to the played chord
These Arpeggio types created for use with Normal Voices are played back to match the chord type
determined by detecting the notes you play on the keyboard. Arpeggios with this playback type have
"_XS" at the end of the type name.
NOTE
When the "KeyMode" parameter is set to "sort" or "sortdirect," the same sequence is played back no matter
what order you play the notes. When the "KeyMode" parameter is set to "thru" or "thrudirect," a different
sequence is played back depending on the order you play the notes.
NOTE
Since these types are programmed for Normal Voices, using them with Drum Voices may not produce
musically appropriate results.
