TYPE

Specifies what note of the arpeggio should be
played in the currently selected step, in relation to
the lowest note (L1) of the keyboard keys pressed.
• If the value specified for a step is greater than the

number of keyboard keys pressed, the
corresponding notes of the arpeggio will be
played one octave higher. For example, if L4 is
specified here, pressing only three keyboard
keys will play L1, one octave higher.

• After one octave, the corresponding note will

return back to the original octave.

L1 to L8

Specifies what note of the arpeggio should be
played in the currently selected step, in relation to
the highest note (U1) of the keyboard keys pressed.

corresponding notes of the arpeggio will be
played one octave lower. For example, if U4 is
specified here, pressing only three keyboard
keys will play U1, one octave lower.

• After one octave, the corresponding note will

return back to the original octave.

U1 to U8

Specifies what note should be played in the
