There is a button combination trick that makes the arpeggiator a retrigger rather than an arpeggiate.
On the hardware you can of course hold down buttons whilst pressing other buttons that you shouldn't be able to (and indeed on the software you cannot do these combinations, press one button, the last one pops out as expected.). What this means is that you can hold a chord or single note and it repeats at the arp tempo but doesn't arpeggiate across the octaves.
This is the combination of pushed buttons that achieve this I believe:
Any arpeggio button plus UNISON 1 plus HOLD for repeating notes
Any arpeggio button plus POLY 1 plus HOLD for repeating chords
Of course it would easier to have a dedicated button that does this for you. What do you think Cherry Audio team?

Feature Request: The "Non-Arp Arp" retrigger trick
Mercury-4 is a detailed emulation of one of the best-sounding and quirkiest polyphonic synthesizers of the late 1970's, the Roland Jupiter-4.
