It processes held notes received from MIDI IN and transmits them as arpeggios through MIDI OUT. You can process the output of the sound generator through the MPX 1, but this is not necessary to hear the effect of the arpeggiator. To use the arpeggiator, first make the MIDI connections: <br \/>Connect a keyboard or other source of MIDI notes to the MPX 1 rear panel MIDI IN. Connect the MPX 1 rear panel MIDI OUT to a MIDI sound generator. Make sure everything is on the same MIDI channel. At this point you can load either of two presets that have the arpeggiator connected (MIDI Arp 1, or MIDI 16th Arp), or you can set up the arpeggiator from scratch. To set up a basic arpeggiator: Press Edit to display the Edit Select menu and select Arp. Set the Arp parameters as follows: <br \/>Mode: Up-Dn <br \/>V Src: 0 <br \/>Clock: Puls1 <br \/>OnSrc: LGate <br \/>OnLvl: 64 <br \/>Press Edit to return to the Edit Select menu and select LFO 1. <br \/>Set the LFO parameters as follows: <br \/>Mode: On <br \/>Rate Options: cycles : beat <br \/>Rate: 2:1 <br \/>PW: 50% <br \/>Depth: 100% <\/p>\n<p>Play two or more notes at once on the MIDI keyboard and you will hear them arpeggiated on the sound generator. Press Tap twice to change the arpeggiation rhythm. Change the Arp Mode parameter to hear different note <br \/>orderings. Change LFO1 PW to experiment with staccato and legato phrasing. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[],"tags":[],"storecat":[],"itemids":[26156],"manufacturers":[33499],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.9 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Check out the How do I get the arpeggiator to work on the MPX1? page at Sweetwater \u2014 the world&#039;s leading music technology and instrument retailer!\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sweetwater.com\/sweetcare\/articles\/arpeggiator-work-mpx1\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"How do I get the arpeggiator to work on the MPX1? - SweetCare\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Answer: In using the arpeggiator in the MPX 1 you need to have a controller (like a keyboard, a controller that sustains notes *** THE CONTROLLER MUST BE ABLE TO SUSTAIN NOTES OR THE ARPEGGIATOR WILL NOT WORK******), and you need a separate sound module.
