SETTING THE SCALE

There are five (5) possible scale types that may be selected on the FADERBOARD. Major, Minor, Arabic, Gypsy and 
Blue Note. For specific information regarding these scales plase refer to the following chart.

In addition to each root octave of the seven (7) scales / keys 
and variants the OCTAVE SWITCH allows you to adjust up 
one octave or down one octave.  In combination with a synth 
sound it is possible to produce highly melodic compositions.

If you make a change to either the key/scale type or the 
octave the output signal will reflect this change immediately.

There are only eight (8) tones to a normal scale in any 
given octave. As there are ten KEY FADERS on the 
FADERBOARD following a complete octave progression 
there will be an additional two full tonal steps.  This is 
only the case for Synth Programs and User Defined 
Programs.

Unfortunattely it is not possible to select either harmonic or melodic minor on the FADERBOARD. In order to achieve 
this scale type, please use the SHARP (

) SWITCH to affect the 6

th

 and 7

th

 notes as and when required.

To set the pitch use the TUNE / BPM SWITCH located 
next to the CONTROL FADER. When activated the LED 
will be illuminated.

Once activated, by using the CONTROL FADER you will 
be able to increase or decrease the playback speed of 
any KEY FADER controlled sound by up to 

±

 100%. The 

adjustment mechanism allows for 2% incremental changes. 
You are also able to use the EXIT / + and ENTER / - SWITCHS 
to control the changes.

The primary setting is 0%.

Any change will affect the output signal immediately.
