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.

The Four-Part display cannot be called up from this display.

1 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%

2 Quantize Value*

Determines to what beats the note data in the Arpeggio

sequence data will be aligned, or determines to what beats

in the Arpeggio sequence data the swing is applied. This

parameter can be changed via the Knob directly. The

number shown at right of each value indicates the length

assumes that the quarter-note resolution is 480.

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)

3 Quantize Strength

Sets the “strength” by which note events are pulled toward

the nearest quantize beats. A setting of 100% produces

exact timing set via the Quantize Value parameter above. A

setting of 0% results in no quantization. A setting of 50%

results in the note events being pulled halfway between 0%

and 100%. This parameter can be changed via the Knob

directly.

Settings: 0% – 100%

4 Swing*

Delays notes on even-numbered beats (backbeats) to

produce a swing feel. Settings above 1 delay the Arpeggio

notes, whereas settings below 1 advance them. A setting

of 0 produces exact timing set via the Quantize Value,

resulting in no swing. Judicious use of this setting lets you

create swing rhythms and triplet feels, such as shufﬂe and

bounce. This parameter can be changed via the Knob

directly.

Settings: -120 – +120

5 Velocity Rate

Determines how much the velocity of the Arpeggio

playback is offset from the original value. For example, a

setting of 100% means the original values are used.

Settings below 100% will reduce the velocities of the

Arpeggio notes, whereas settings above 100% will

increase the 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: 0% – 200%

6 Gate Time Rate

Determines how much the Gate Time (length) of the

Arpeggio notes is offset from the original value. For

example, a setting of 100% means the original values are

used. Settings below 100% will reduce the velocities of the

Arpeggio notes, whereas settings above 100% will

increase the velocities. 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: 0% – 200%

7 Octave Range

Speciﬁes the maximum Arpeggio range in octaves.

Positive value settings increase the octave range of the

Arpeggio playback upward, whereas negative value

settings increase it downward.

This parameter can be changed via the Knob directly.

Settings: -3 – +0 – +3

8 Loop

When this is set to “on,” the Arpeggio cycles while notes

are held. When this is set to “off,” the Arpeggio plays only

once even if notes are held.

Settings: off, on

9 Trigger Mode

When this is set to “gate,” pressing the note starts

Arpeggio playback and releasing the note stops it. When

this is set to “toggle,” pressing the note starts/stops

Arpeggio playback and releasing the note does not affect

Arpeggio playback. Normally, this parameter should be set

to “gate.”

Settings: gate, toggle

n The Trigger Mode “toggle” setting overcomes the Hold “on”

setting in the Arpeggio Main display (page 154). In other

words, even when the Hold parameter is set to “on,” pressing

the note start/stops Arpeggio playback when the Trigger Mode

is set to “toggle.”
