Echo Category (Echo, Tremolo, Trill) The Echo, Tremolo or Trill effect is applied to the note played in the right-hand section of the keyboard in time with the currently set tempo, regardless of the [ACMP] and the LEFT part on/off status. Keep in mind that Trill works when you hold down two notes on the keyboard simultaneously (or the last two notes, if more than two notes are held), and it plays those notes alternately. 3 Play the keyboard. The effect selected in step 2 is applied to the right-hand melody. To turn off the effect, turn the [HARMONY/ARPEGGIO] button off. Triggering Arpeggios with Your Right Hand The Arpeggio function lets you play arpeggios (broken chords) by simply pressing the notes of the chord. For example, you could play the notes C, E and G to trigger interesting phrases. This feature can be used for music production as well as performance. 1 Turn the [HARMONY/ARPEGGIO] button on. 2 Select the desired Arpeggio type. 2-1 Call up the operation display.

For details on the Voice Set function, refer to the Reference Manual on the website. NOTE By using the Arpeggio Quantize function, Arpeggio playback can be synchronized with Song/Style playback, allowing any slight imperfections in the timing to be corrected. This can be set in the display: [FUNCTION] TAB [E] MENU 1 [J] UTILITY TAB [E][F] CONFIG 2. 2-2 2-3 You can set the Arpeggio volume and select the part for playing the Arpeggio in the display called up via the [7 ] (DETAIL) buttons.
