Voice Mode s Switch Switch the Arpeggiator on or off. You can also set this using the [ARPEGGIO ON/OFF] key on the front panel of the CS6x. t Settings: off, on s Hold Switch the Arpeggiator Hold on or off. You can also set this using the [ARPEGGIO HOLD] key on the front panel of the CS6x. t Settings: syncoff, off, on Details about this are given on Page 44. ARP Limit (Arpeggio Note Limit) s Vel Mode (Velocity Mode) Set the playback velocity of the Arpeggio. There are 2 modes. t Settings: original: Preset velocities are used in the Arpeggio sequence. thru: Velocities of the notes you play are used in the Arpeggio sequence. ARP PlayEF (Arpeggio Play Effects) You can set Play Effects for the Arpeggio. Play Effects can be used to temporarily adjust the timing and velocity of MIDI notes, thus affecting the groove of the Arpeggio pattern. ARPíLimit) C 1234 Note Limit C-2 - G 8 ARPíPlayEF) C 1234 Unit 50% Vel 200% Gate 200% s Note Limit Set the lowest and highest notes in the Arpeggiator's note range. t Settings: C-2 ~ G8 (lowest and highest set separately) If you specify the highest note first and the lowest note second, for example "C5 to C4," then the note range covered will be "C-2 to C4" and "C5 to G8." You can set the lowest and highest notes in the range by pressing notes on the keyboard while holding down the [SHIFT] key. ARP Mode (Arpeggio Mode) These parameters control the way in which notes are played back by the Arpeggiator. ARPíMode) C 1234 Key Mode sort Vel Mode thru s Key Mode Set how the Arpeggio is played back when keys on the keyboard are pressed. There are 3 modes. t Settings: sort: Plays back notes in ascending order from the lowest key pressed to the highest. thru: Plays back notes in the order in which the keys are pressed. direct: Plays back the notes exactly as you play them. If changes to Voice parameters (such as Pan or Cutoff frequency) are included in the Arpeggio sequence data, they will be applied and reproduced whenever the Arpeggio plays back. If the Arpeggio Category is set to Ct, you will not hear any sounds unless you select "direct" here. With the "sort" and "thru" settings, the order in which notes are played back will depend on the Arpeggio sequence data. s Unit Adjust the Arpeggio playback time. For example, if you set a value of 200%, the playback time will be doubled and the tempo halved. Alternatively, if you set a value of 50%, the playback time will be halved and the tempo doubled. Normal playback time is 100%. t Settings: 50%, 66%, 75%, 100%, 133%, 150%, 200% s Vel (Velocity) Set the Velocity offset value (the strength at which the keyboard is played). This determines how the original Velocities are increased or decreased during Arpeggio playback. A setting of 100% means the original values are used. Settings below 100% will reduce the velocity of the Arpeggio notes, whereas settings above 100% will increase the velocities. t Settings: 0% ~ 200% If the Velocity value falls below 1, it will be limited to 1. If it exceeds 127, it will be limited to 127. s Gate (Gate Time) Set the Gate Time Rate value (the length of a note). This determines how the original Gate Times are increased or decreased during Arpeggio playback. A setting of 100% means the original values are used. Settings below 100% will shorten the gate times of the Arpeggio notes, whereas settings above 100% will lengthen them. You can also set this using the [GATE TIME] knob on the front panel of the CS6x. t Settings: 0% ~ 200% If the Gate Time value falls below 1, it will be limited to 1. 83
