CHORD Type, CHORD Mode Set to Harmonizer
The CHORD parameter Type, set value 1-3-5 (Mode set to Harm).
If CHORDMode is set to Harm , then CHORDType will offer you a selection of individual notes
present in the selected SCALEType . This means that for all scales except the 12-tone Chrom
scale (see further below), you can select the interval of notes that will make up your chord.
The note interval is added onto the key of an incoming MIDI note, either from the KOM-
PLETE KONTROL keyboard or from the host. For example, you can select to play a C minor triad
by setting
Root Note to C , SCALEType to Minor , CHORDMode to Harm , and CHORDType to
1-3-5 .
When CHORDMode is set to Harm , the CHORDType setting includes the following values:
Chord Type Interval Added to Played Note
Octave Octave
1-3 3rd
1-5 5th
1-3-5 3rd and 5th
1-4-5 4th and 5th
1-3-5-7 3rd, 5th and 7th
1-4-7 4th and 7th
CHORD Type, CHORD Mode Set to Chd Set
The CHORD parameter Type, set value Maj 1 (Mode set to Chd Set).
If CHORDMode is set to Chd Set and, for example, the Root Note is set to C , then the
CHORDType menu presents you with a list of selectable chords. Values are, e.g., Maj 4 and
Min 7 , which would generate a major and minor chord, respectively—both using C as the chord’s
root note.
When CHORDMode is set to Chd Set , the CHORDType setting includes the following values:
• Maj 1 , Maj 2 , Maj 3 , Maj 4 , Maj 5 , Maj 6 , Maj 7 , Maj 8 , Min 1 , Min 2 , Min 3 , Min 4 , Min 5 , Min
