4. Turn Encoder 2 to select the desired scale.
Selecting a scale automatically assigns a different note within that scale to a different
key. There are 12 built-in scales corresponding to the 12 LEDs on Pad 2. Tetrapad’s
scale library has the following scales:

Furthermore, selecting a scale assigns it to each of the three additional pitch outputs,
but rotates their notes diatonically. This means the notes appearing at Out 2 are
diatonically s2; the notes appearing at Out 3 are diatonically shifted by +4;
and the notes appearing at Out 4 are diatonically shifted by +6.
5. Turn Encoder 3 to set the root note of the scale.
The root note is indicated by the LED position beneath Pad 3.
