8.2. Pitch and transposition
A Sequencer pattern can be transposed during playback, either by octaves or by chromatic
steps. But an active arpeggio cannot be transposed. To construct an arpeggio with different
notes, change the octave range of the pads and play the notes you want the arpeggio to
contain.
♪
: If you like a certain arpeggio and want to be able to transpose it, record it into a pattern and then
transpose the pattern.
The Scale you've selected for the pads makes only those notes available to the Arpeggiator.
The Scale selection also affects the notes being played by a Held arpeggio.
Here are two reference charts for the pitch-based features of the Sequencer and the
Arpeggiator. The top chart lists the shared features; the bottom chart lists the independent
features.

features
Description
Selecting a scale affects the note assignment of each pad and the notes that the Seq and Arp play.
It does not affect the recorded data in a pattern, but acts as a filter for that data.
Independent features
Description
Independent transposition for Seq and pads; no special Octave shift feature for Arp
An active arpeggio does not transpose when Seq is transposed.
