Registering a Song Scene and Arpeggio type simultaneously to the [SF1] - [SF5] buttons
Song Scenes and Arpeggio types can both be registered to the [SF1] - [SF5] buttons (when the ARP1 - ARP5 menu items are shown
at the bottom of the display). These settings are stored as Song data. Song Scene is a powerful function that allows you to store five
different "snapshots" of important Song related parameters – including transpose, tempo, track mute status, and the basic sound/
mixing controls (all parameter settings controllable from the Knobs with the [PAN/SEND] or [TONE] lamp turned on, and the Control
Sliders). The Arpeggio function and Arpeggio types are discussed in detail in the Voice mode, on page 66. You can call up both the
Song Scene and Arpeggio type simultaneously by simply pressing one of the [SF1] - [SF5] buttons (when ARP1 - ARP5 are shown at
the bottom of the display in the Song mode).
