With the SINGLE/MULTIPLE TRIGGER switch (1.4) on, the keyboard will put out a new trig-
ger for every note played, regardless of whether or not any other note is still being held down. You'll
notice that if you try to play legato, the keyboard will still put out new triggers, foiling your every
attempt to avoid them. MULTIPLE TRIGGERING is great for playing those pyrotechnic runs where
you want every note to stand out. It covers up for any note you hit sloppily, whereas with SINGLE
TRIGGERING, you have to be sure to hit every note distinctly in order for it to be articulated
clearly.

THE HOLD FUNCTION

The HOLD switch (1.8) is used for building chords that you can subsequently control in parallel
motion from the keyboard. Play a chord. Continue holding it while you press the HOLD button. Let
up on the chord and then play a single note. You should hear the chord and be able to transpose it up
and down by playing the keyboard. If you want to build chords that are too wide to simultaneously
play while pressing the HOLD switch, push the HOLD switch, continue holding it and play the
chord you want, one note at a time. When the HOLD switch is released, the chord pattern is stored.
Since the HOLD function is not programmable, you can switch to other programs while retaining
the "held" chord.

THE ARPEGGIATOR

Turning the ARPEGGIATOR switch (1.9) on puts the keyboard immediately into a MONO-
PHONIC ARPEGGIATION MODE. However, if the instrument is in MONOPHONIC MODE al-
ready, no arpeggiation will occur. You'll hear the highest, lowest, or last note you've hit retrigger de-
pending on the MONO KEYBOARD MODE you're in. The rate of the arpeggiation is set by the
LFO RATE knob (5.0).
When you first turn on the arpeggiator, the Alphanumeric Display will read "MODE (1-9)" (the
arpeggiator modes are listed below). To change the ARPEGGIATION MODES, hit the desired
MODE NUMBER followed by ENTER immediately after you turn on the ARPEGGIATOR.
