RADICAL DELTA CEP A, Owner'S Manual, Page: 22 / 63

when you need to target the notes of a specific musical scale exactly. For this purpose, the
DELTA CEP A has a musical scale quantizer. The Oscillator section only outputs pitches
that correspond to a selectable scale. The scales can be selected by holding down the
[PARAPHONIC] button while selecting the scale with the OSC-LEVEL knob in the Mixer
section. In the center position of the knob setting, the quantizer is switched off. The
selection is visualized by the eight LEDs in the left interpolator section. If the bottom LED is
lit white, the quantizer is off. Below the middle position are minor and above the middle
position major scales visualized by blue and red colors. The following tone scales are
available:
TIP: Minor tone scales are displayed in blue, while major scales are displayed in red.
The origin (root) of the tone scales can be shifted by any semitones. To do this, turn the
MOD-DEPTH knob of the Oscillator section while holding down the [PARAPHONIC] button.

-7 : Pentatonic minor
-6 : Blues minor
-5 : Gipsy minor
