Using I-ARPEGGIO
18
Automatically Changing the Arpeggio
(PLAY DETECTOR)
PLAY DETECTOR is a function that varies the arpeggio in real time by
detecting your keyboard playing.
* If both KEYS and BEAT are
“OFF,”
the current loop performance is repeated.
This is convenient when you want to continue performing for a while with
the same accompaniment.
Changing the arpeggio according to the harmony you play
(KEYS)
You can set whether the pitch of the arpeggiated notes changes
according to the pitches that you play on the keyboard.
* If you want to layer the sound of your keyboard performance without
changing the chord, turn KEYS off.
Changing the arpeggio at the timing of your playing
(BEAT)
You can specify whether the pattern will change according to the
rhythm inferred from the timing interval between the notes you play.
* The pitch of the notes you play on the keyboard is detected even if BEAT
is off. If you want to maintain the sense of beat while you play a chord
progression, turn BEAT off.
Editing Individual Steps of the Arpeggio

You can also create a user pattern from a blank state without using
