Chapter 6. Using Arpeggiator (ARPEGGIATOR)
About Arpeggiator
The SH-32’s Arpeggiator function lets you perform arpeggios 
(chords in which notes are played in succession, one note at a time) 
just by playing the chords, using the notes in the chords you play.
Not only can you use the factory-set 
Arpeggio Styles
, which 
determine the way the arpeggio is played, but you can also freely 
rewrite Styles and enjoy performing your own original arpeggios.
Furthermore, you can also play rhythm patterns when you have a 
Rhythm Set selected. What’s more, you can perform in ensemble 
using these arpeggios and rhythm patterns in Performance mode.

them up when Arpeggiator is on, and you can easily create 
complex arpeggio sounds just by pressing a single key (or one
