Octave
1...10
Determines the range of the single notes in octaves. When
it is set to 1 Oct, the note list will be played back in the

The octave in which the arpeggio starts is determined by
the Direction parameter. If you play notes that span more
than one octave, they are still kept in the note list and
played back before the note list is transposed. The
following table shows some possible arpeggios:

Arpeggio results depending on note input
Length
1/96…48 bars / Legato
Sets the length of the generated arpeggio notes. However,
when Length is set to legato, all arpeggio notes are
played without pauses between each step and
Arpegiator Length
therefore has no effect.
Overlap
on / off
Due to the various Length parameters, it might happen
that two notes having equal pitch overlap, e.g. when you
