OB-6 OS 1.5.5 Addendum
OB-6 OS version 1.5.5 adds a number of new features not covered in the main
Operation Manual.
New Features in OS 1.5.5
• Arpeggiator Beat Sync. This Global parameter quantizes keyboard perfor-
mance of the arpeggiator so that notes are quantized to the current clock
divide setting.
• MIDI note output from the arpeggiator and sequencer. This allows you to
use the OB-6 arpeggiator or sequencer to drive other sound modules.
• When in Unison mode, you can now transpose Sequencer playback without
having to hold down the rec button.
