    Explanation

    Mode

    Sets the order in which notes are played by the arpeggio when you play a chord.
    UP The notes are played from the lowest key you played to the highest.
    DOWN The notes are played from the highest key you played to the lowest.
    UP&DOWN The notes are played from low to high, and then from high to low.
    RANDOM The notes are played in random order.
    NOTE ORDER The notes are played in the order in which you play them.

    Rate

    Sets the length of one note for each step that the arpeggio plays.
    1/4 Quarter note
    1/8 Eighth note
    1/8T Eighth-note triplet
    1/16 Sixteenth note
    1/16T Sixteenth-note triplet
    1/32 Thirty-second note

    Oct Range

    -3–+3

    Specifies the range of octaves in which the arpeggio is sounded.
    You can specify whether the arpeggio is sounded in the octave(s) above (+) or below (-) the notes you play.

    Transpose

    -36–+36

    Shifts the arpeggio notes in semitone steps.

    Gate Length

    0–100 [%]

    Specifies the duration that the notes of the arpeggio pattern are sounded, as a proportion of the note length.
    You can set this to make the arpeggiated notes sound briefly for a staccato feel, or at their full duration for a tenuto feel.

    Shuffle

    -50–+50

    Creates a shuffle rhythm by varying the timing at which the upbeat notes play.
    When this setting is “0”, notes are sounded at equal spacing. Increasing the value adds a shuffle feel like a dotted-note rhythm.

    Velocity

    REAL, 1–127

    Sets the velocity of notes played by the arpeggiator.
    To change the velocity (how hard the notes are played) for the arpeggio notes according to how hard you play the notes input from the external keyboard, use the “REAL” setting.
    To make the arpeggio notes play at a fixed velocity, set this to a value from 1 to 127.
