Briefly hold the Arpeggiator switch down to latch arpeggiated notes. (The light
will blink when latched.) Playing additional notes while latched adds them to the
notes already playing.
The Arpeggiator can also be latched with a footswitch connected to the Sustain
jack. See “Sustain” in Global Parameters on page 7.
Note: You can only have any specific key play one time in the arpeggio.
That is, if you are latching keys, and hit the same note twice, it will only
latch the most recent hit.
