Playing with iRig KEYS 37
You can start playing as soon as you connect iRig KEYS 37 to your computer and launch a virtual instrument
plug-in. Pressing the keys on the iRig KEYS 37 keyboard sends MIDI note messages. iRig KEYS 37 has a
37-note keyboard that is approximately centered in the middle of a full 88-note piano keyboard.
Octave Shift
6
By default, iRig KEYS 37 plays notes between C2 and C5. If you need to play notes lower or higher than this
range, you can shift the whole keyboard in octaves using the OCT up and down buttons
6
.
When the LEDs for both OCT buttons are off, no octave shift is applied. You can shift a maximum of 3 octaves
up or 4 octaves down. OCT up or down buttons will illuminate when an octave shift is active.
The OCT up or down buttons will flash each time you press them.
The number of times they flash corresponds to the number of octaves up or down the keyboard is shifted.
