Exploring the Master 
Arpeggiator

Xtreme Lead’s multi-channel Pattern Generator/Arpeggiator is one of the 
greatest features ever put in a synth. Let’s explore the Master Arpeggiator.

þ  

To Arpeggiate a Single Preset:

1.

Select a preset. Note that the factory presets all have prefixes which 
describe the type of sound. For this investigation it might be best to 
choose a preset with the prefix “arp,” for arpeggiator. These presets are 
optimized for use with the arpeggiator.

2.

Set the Arp parameter in the main screen to “M” for Master 
Arpeggiator.

3.

Press the Arp/Beats menu button on the front panel to access the 
master Arpeggiator menu, then use the Data Entry Control to scroll to 
the screen shown below.

4.

Make sure the arpeggiator Status is “on.” Play the keyboard to start 
arpeggiating.

Try using the control 

knobs to change the 
arpeggiator parameters. 

5.

Press either cursor key repeatedly to move the cursor below the Status 
field. 

6.

Turn the Data Entry Control clockwise one click. The Mode screen 
appears.

7.

Use the cursor keys to move the cursor to the 

Mode

 field (up, down, up/

down, forw asgn, backw asgn, forw/backw, random, pattern). Try out 
the different modes as you play the keyboard.

8.

Move the cursor back to the lower left position and explore the other 
parameters. The 

Note Value

 parameter changes the rate of the arpeggios. 

By the way, note value is a divisor based on the Master Tempo (which 
has its own front panel button). Try changing the tempo, but come 
right back.
