Chord Sets

In PLAY Mode, you can access eight independent chord sets, each containing eight chords, giving ARP a total of 64 chords that you can access at any time.

Chord set 1 is enabled by default.

Selecting a Chord Set:

  1. Press Load

  2. Press any Chord button (1-8) to select the corresponding chord set

Operation:

  • Chord sets can be switched at any time, including during active playback

  • New chord assignments take effect only when a Note button is pressed

  • The active chord set is automatically saved at the bank level

Default Configuration: Each chord set initially contains the same factory chord assignments (Major, Minor, etc., as labeled on the panel). Any modifications to chord assignments are automatically saved.

Bank Integration: Chord set selection is saved per bank. Patches copied between banks with different chord sets may sound different.

Note: Chord set selection is persisted across power cycles and is recalled with each bank.
