Variation (Arpeggio Variation)
The arpeggiator provides several variations (performance patterns)
for each arpeggio style. This parameter selects the variation number.
The number of variations will differ according to the arpeggio style.
Motif (Arpeggio Motif)
Sets the order in which notes of the chord will sound.
Value
UP:
Notes you press will be sounded, beginning from
low to high.
DOWN:
Notes you press will be sounded, from high to low.
UP&DOWN:
Notes you press will be sounded, from low to high,
and then back down from high to low.
RANDOM:
Notes you press will be sounded, in random order.
NOTE ORDER:
Notes you press will be sounded in the order in
which you pressed them. By pressing the notes in
the appropriate order you can produce melody
lines. Up to 128 notes will be remembered.
GLISSANDO:
Each chromatic step between the highest and
lowest notes you press will sound in succession,
repeating upward and downward. Press only the
lowest and the highest notes.
CHORD:
All notes you press will sound simultaneously.
AUTO1:
The timing at which keys will sound will be
assigned automatically, giving priority to the
lowest key that was pressed.
AUTO2:
The timing at which keys will sound will be
assigned automatically, giving priority to the
highest key that was pressed.
PHRASE:
Pressing a single key will sound the phrase based
on the pitch of that key. If multiple keys are
pressed, the last-pressed key will be valid.
Accent Rate (Arpeggio Accent Rate)
Modifies the strength of accents and the length of the notes to adjust
the “groove” feel of the arpeggio. A setting of “100%” will produce
the most pronounced groove feel.
Value:
0–100%
Shuffle Rate (Arpeggio Shuffle Rate)
This setting lets you modify the note timing to create shuffle
rhythms.
With a setting of “50%” the notes will be spaced evenly. As the value
is increased, the note timing will have more of a “dotted” (shuffle)
feel.
Value:
0–100%
fig.Shuffle Rate
Shuffle Resolution (Arpeggio Shuffle Resolution)
Specify the timing resolution in terms of a note value. The note value
can be specified as either an 16th note or a eighth note.
Value:
,
Keyboard Velocity (Arpeggio Keyboard Velocity)
Specifies the loudness of the notes that you play.
If you want the velocity value of each note to depend on how
strongly you play the keyboard, set this parameter to “REAL.” If you
want each note to have a fixed velocity regardless of how strongly
you play the keyboard, set this parameter to the desired value (1–
127).
Value:
REAL, 1–127
Octave Range (Arpeggio Octave Range)
Sets the key range in octaves over which arpeggio will take place. If
you want the arpeggio to sound using only the notes that you
actually play, set this parameter to “0.” To have the arpeggio sound
using the notes you play and notes 1 octave higher, set this
parameter to “+1.” A setting of “-1” will make the arpeggio sound
using the notes you play and notes 1 octave lower.
Value:
-3– +3
Key Trigger (Arpeggio Key Trigger)
Turn this “ON” if you want the arpeggio to start at the moment that
you press the key. If you want the arpeggio to start playing in
synchronization with the sequencer, turn this “OFF.”
Value:
OFF, ON
You can create your own original Arpeggio Style by importing SMF
or phrase data into an arpeggio user style.
If you want to import SMF data, you must first copy the
Standard MIDI File (SMF) from your computer to the Fantom-G
as described in
“Copying a Standard MIDI File (SMF) from
Your Computer to the Fantom-G”

Hold down [SHIFT] and press [ARPEGGIO].
2.
Press [F1 (Import Style)].
3.
Press [F2 (SMF List)] or [F3 (Phrase List)] to switch the list
from which you want to import.
4.
Turn the VALUE dial to select the SMF or phrase that you
want to import.
By pressing [F7 (Preview)] you can audition the selected SMF or
phrase.
If you decide not to import, press [F8 (Exit)].
