13.5.1 Scale Root Note
The first SCALE parameter is Root Note . On the keyboard, it is mapped to Knob 1 of the Con-
trol section in Scale Edit mode. Setting the root note of a scale means deciding what key the
scale will begin with. The following notes of the scale depend on which scale pattern you se-
lect with the
SCALE Type parameter (see below). You can transpose any scale pattern up or
down by selecting a different Root Note .
The Light Guide indicates the selected Root Note via fully lit LEDs, while other active
keys are half-lit.
