In Live mode, you can add rests, ties, and chords in real time by clicking the onscreen buttons or by using equivalent MIDI keyboard remote keys. See Arpeggiator keyboard parameters.
The grid acts as a display only. Incoming MIDI velocities, rests, ties, and chords are displayed in real time but cannot be edited in the grid. To edit individual arpeggiator steps, click the Grid button to turn on Arpeggiator Grid mode.
Note: Rests, ties, and chords are active only when Latch mode is turned on. See Arpeggiator control parameters.
Rest button: Insert a rest at the current arpeggiator step position. A position identification number is assigned to the rest, ensuring that its rhythmic position (step number) within the arpeggio is retained, even when different note order presets are chosen.
Note: Rests can only be added while building the arpeggio, which means that at least one key must be held if you want to add a rest. Once all keys are released, the Arpeggiator acts in accordance with the rules of the set Latch mode and expects to receive a MIDI note for transposition and so on. In Latch Add mode, this restriction does not apply because it allows you to add MIDI notes, rests, ties, and chords after all keys are released.
Tie button: Insert a tie at the current arpeggiator step position. A position identification number is assigned to the tie, ensuring that its rhythmic position (step number) within the arpeggio is retained, even when different note order presets are chosen.
Chord button: Insert a chord at the current arpeggiator step position. When the arpeggiator encounters a chord step, it simultaneously plays all notes, including their unique velocities, currently in memory (latched or held). A position identification number is assigned to the chord, ensuring that its rhythmic position (step number) within the arpeggio is retained, even when different note order presets are chosen.
