Using the Arpeggio
The arpeggio function is used to make the notes of the chords you play sound separately (with “chords” meaning any stack of two
or more different pitches).
Turn the arpeggio on to arpeggiate what you play, using various patterns.
1. Press the [ARPEGGIO] button to make the indicator light.
2. Press more than one key at the same time (in other words, play a chord).
You can also use the step buttons on this unit as a keyboard.
For details, refer to “ 5. Using the [1]–[13] Buttons as a Keyboard (NOTE) (P.22).”
