Select Period (sync division) for the Arpeggiator in relation to the Master Clock rate with the knob. Ac-
tivate/stop the Arpeggiator with the radio buttons below the knob. Note that the Master Clock doesn’t
have to be active for the Arpeggiator to run. Select Direction with the right knob and Range with the
radio buttons below the knob.
The Arpeggiator uses MIDI Song Position Pointer when synched to an external MIDI Clock, which
means that if you record an arpeggio in an external sequencer, it will always play back the pattern exactly
the same way it was recorded - even if you start the sequencer in the middle of the sequence.

The Glide function is mainly intended for use in mono or legato (see
). The
glide characteristics can be described as “constant rate”. “Constant rate” means that the greater the “dis-
tance” between two subsequent notes, the longer the glide time. Turn the knob to adjust the glide rate
and press the radio buttons to select glide mode. ‘Normal’ means the glide is always active and ‘Auto’ that
glide is active only when you play legato (you press a new key before you release the previous key).
Note: If you use Glide in polyphonic mode, the glide will be unpredictable and perceived as more or
less random. This is because the glide is between voices rather than between keys. The glide will there-
fore be from the available voices’ latest note values to the new notes rather than from the previously
pressed keys.
