ARPEGGIATOR/SEQUENCER category
The arpeggiator and sequencer have the following features:
! The sequencer has a maximum of 64-steps, with the ability to add
ties and rests.
! The arpeggiator has a range of three octaves and several operating
modes including, UP, DOWN, UP & DOWN, etc.
ARPEGGIATOR/SEQUENCER parameters
BPM
The [BPM] (Beat Per Minute) parameter sets the tempo at which
the arpeggiator and sequencer operate when [MIDI Clock Mode] of
[GLOBAL SETTING] is set to master mode ([Off]/[Master]).
! When [MIDI Clock Mode] is set to slave mode ([Slave]/[Slave Thru]/
[Slave No S/S]), this [BPM] setting is ignored and synchronizes with
the external MIDI clock.
! The [BPM] setting is linked with the [CLOCK TAP] button on the
control panel, and the [CLOCK TAP] button flashes according to the
set tempo.
! You can also set [BPM] by tapping the [CLOCK TAP] button on the
control panel at least three times at your desired tempo, or by turning
the [CLOCK BPM/DIVIDE] dial.
! The setting range of [BPM] is between 30 and 250.
! The [BPM] setting will affect the frequency of the LFO and the
BBD effect when [Sync] of the [LFO] category or [FX 1 Sync] of the
[EFFECTS] category is set to [On].
TimeDiv
Sets the time value for each sequencer/arpeggiator step relative to the
BPM. This value applies to both internal and external clock sources. The
following table lists the values:

ARPEGGIATOR category
When you turn on the arpeggiator and hold a chord on the keyboard, the
TORAIZ AS-1 will play a pattern based on the individual notes held.
You can choose a mode (up, down, random, etc.), an octave range (1, 2,
or 3), and a tempo.
! If you turn on the [HOLD] button on the control panel, the arpeggio
continues to play even if you release your fingers from the keyboard.
When the [HOLD] button is On, the arpeggio performance will be as
follows.
— If you play a new chord, the current arpeggio play is replaced by
the new one.
— If you press another key while pressing down more than one key,
the pitch of the newly pressed key will be added to the current
arpeggio by the auto latch feature.
! The sequencer cannot be used while the arpeggiator function is On.
ARPEGGIATOR parameters
On/Off
The [On/Off] parameter turns on/off the arpeggiator function.
This parameter is linked with the [ARP] button on the control panel.
Mode
The [Mode] parameter sets the behavior of the arpeggiator
corresponding to the played chord.
You can choose from the following five modes.
Mode Arpeggio behavior
Up
A played chord is arpeggiated from the lowest pitch to higher
pitches.
Down
A played chord is arpeggiated from the highest pitch to lower
pitches.
Up+Dwn
Repeatedly plays from lowest to highest and back to lowest.
Random
The notes of a chord are played in random order.
Assign
Plays notes in the order the keys were pressed.
Range
The [Range] parameter sets the range from one octave to three octaves
in which a chord is arpeggiated.
The settings and arpeggio behavior are as follows.
[Range] setting In octave unit Arpeggiated behavior
10ct
1 octave Only the held notes are arpeggiated.
20ct
2 octaves
The held notes and the same notes one
octave above them arpeggiate.
30ct
3 octaves
The held notes and the same notes one
and two octave above them arpeggiate.
SEQUENCER category
The sequencer allows you to create a single sequence of up to 64 steps,
including rests and ties. Saving a sound saves any sequence you have
created for it.
! When the sequencer is playing, the arpeggiator is disabled.
! For how to create sequencer patterns and play them, see “Using the
sequencer” (page 10).
SEQUENCER parameters
Length
The [Length] parameter sets the number of steps in the sequence.
! Up to 64 steps can be set.
Note
The [Note] parameter sets notes for each step.
! From [C0] to [C10] can be set.
! See “Using the sequencer” (page 10) for adding ties.
Vel
The [Vel] parameter sets the velocity for each step.
! To create a rest, set the value to [Rest].
Slew
The [Slew] sets the slur setting to [On]/[Off].
When set to [On], you can smoothly connect adjacent different pitches.
