Using the Keyboard’s Internal Functions
The following keyboard functions can be used when the keyboard is set to operate in either DAW or Preset
Mode.
Note:
In order to control the arpeggiator, Chord Mode, or Scale Mode functions described in the following
sections, the
Function Buttons
underneath the
Sliders
have to be set to their primary Mode. The
Function
Buttons
are set to their primary Mode when no LED to the right of the
Mode Button
is lit. If the
Function
Buttons
are not set to their primary Mode, press the
Mode Button
as many times as necessary until no
LED to the right of the
Mode Button
is lit.
In the following sections, the described LED operation for the
Function
Buttons
assumes that they are set
to their primary Mode.
Note Repeat
When this feature is activated, any pressed
Performance Pad
will repeat its Note message in rhythm with

Arpeggiator
When the arpeggiator is activated, the keyboard will repeatedly play pressed keys in sequence. The
arpeggiator’s timing and rhythm is based on the keyboard’s time division setting and either the keyboard’s
or your DAW’s tempo setting. Each note in the arpeggio will be the length you’ve selected for the time
division setting; for example, if you select
1/4
, each note in the arpeggio will be a quarter note. See
Keyboard Tempo and Time Division
for help editing these settings.
The arpeggiator can be operated in one of two Modes:
•
Momentary:
the arpeggiator will play notes only as long as the keys are pressed down; when you
release the keys, the arpeggiator will stop.
•
Latch:
the arpeggiator will play notes when you press down the keys, and it will continue to play even
after you release your fingers from the keys.
To activate or deactivate the arpeggiator,
press the
Arp Button.
When the arpeggiator is activated, the
button LED will be lit.
To toggle between momentary and latch Mode,
press the
Latch Button
.
When latch is activated, the
button LED will be lit.
To start an arpeggio
, press any keys while the arpeggiator is activated.
To start a new latched arpeggio while a previously latched arpeggio is still playing,
press a new
combination of keys.
To add notes to a latched arpeggio while it is still playing,
hold down the same keys you previously
pressed for the arpeggio while pressing the keys for the new notes you want to add.
To edit the arpeggiator’s settings
, hold
Shift
and press the
Arp Button
. The
Display
will then enter the
menu for editing the Arpeggiator. Use the
Select/Scroll Encoder
to adjust settings (as described in
). When you’re done editing settings, press the
Back Button
to exit the Arpeggiator Edit menu.
