Playing Arpeggiated Chords - Yamaha AN1x Owner's Manual

Playing Arpeggiated
Chords
Trying out the various arpeggios is a lot of fun. Turn on the
Arpeggio Hold function, play an even-numbered note
chord, and see how the different pattern Types and
Subdivide settings react. Then play an odd-numbered note
chord and repeat the process.
There are a wealth of combinations available at your
fingertips—with relatively straightforward or even
unconventional results awaiting you. And only by rolling
up your sleeves and exploring all the options at hand can
you become an expert at how to get just the right
arpeggio for just the right track.
Keyboard Mode
Press KbdMode [UP/DOWN] to designate how the
Arpeggiator patterns respond to notes played on the
keyboard. Select "chrd" (Chord) if you want to play
arpeggiated chords across the entire keyboard. Select
"chrd&norm" (Chord & Normal) if you want to play
arpeggiated chords to the left of the Split Point and
normal chords to the right.
