Arpeggio Settings Synchronizing an Arpeggio to Song/Style/Riyaz Playback- Arpeggio Quantize When you play the keyboard to trigger an Arpeggio (page 21) along with Song/Style/Riyaz playback, you'll need to play the notes with correct timing to keep the Arpeggio in synchronization with the other playback tracks. However, your actual timing may be slightly ahead of or behind the beat (or both). The "Arpeggio Quantize" function of this instrument will correct any slight imperfections in the timing (according to settings below), and then play back the Arpeggio appropriately. • No synchronization • Synchronizing to 8th notes • Synchronizing to quarter notes Although the Arpeggio Quantize value is pre-programmed for each Arpeggio Type, you can change the value manually. 1 Press the [FUNCTION] button.
