The Arpeggio plays back at the preset velocities included in the
Arpeggio sequence data.
thru
The Arpeggio plays back according to the velocity of your playing. For
example, if you play the notes strongly, the playback volume of the
Arpeggio increases.
Output Octave Shift

displays. You can set the parameters in the lower half of the
display for each of the five Arpeggio settings by pressing
one of the [SF1] – [SF5] buttons. The 8th note icon shown
in the tab menu indicates that any Arpeggio Type (other
than "off") is selected in the display corresponding to the
Sub Function button.

n For details about how to use the Arpeggio Type List, see
page 16.
Velocity Rate
Determines the offset value by which the Arpeggio notes
will be shifted from their original velocities. If the resultant
velocity value is less than zero it will be set to 1, and if the
resultant velocity is greater than 128 it will be set to 127.
This parameter can be changed via the Knob directly.
Settings: -100% – +0% – +100%
Gate Time Rate
Determines the Gate Time (length) of the Arpeggio notes.
The Gate Time cannot be decreased beyond its normal
minimum of 1; any values outside that range will
automatically be limited to the minimum. This parameter
can be changed via the Knob directly.
Settings: -100% – +0% – +100%
Arpeggio settings—[F3] ARP Other
(Arpeggio Other)
By changing the timing and velocity of the notes, you can
change the rhythmic "feel" of the Arpeggio playback.
Unit Multiply
Adjusts the Arpeggio playback time based on tempo. By
using this parameter, you can create a different Arpeggio
type from the original one. For example, if you set a value of
200%, the playback time will be doubled (tempo is halved).
On the other hand, if you set a value of 50%, the playback
time will be halved and the tempo doubled. Normal
playback time is 100%. This parameter can be changed
via the Knob directly.
Settings: 50%, 66%, 75%, 100%, 133%, 150%, 200%
Quantize Value*
Determines to what beats the note data in the Song will be
aligned, or determines to what beats in the Song the swing
is applied.
This parameter can be changed via the Knob directly.
Settings: 2 60 (32nd note), 63 80 (16th note triplet), 6 120 (16th
note), 83 160 (8th note triplet), 8 240 (8th note), 43 320
(1/4 note triplet), 4 480 (1/4 note)
