If you want to use phrases with notes not found in the chord
(such as diatonic or chromatic notes) for the instruments Acc. 1
through 4, it is necessary to specify Scalic for the corresponding
track. Within this subdivision four different voicing modes are
available:
Chordal Close
The first specification voices chord in close harmony, also known
as "close voicing". Using suitable inversions, the voices move
through the chord progression in as even a position as possible.
This voicing roughly corresponds to a chordal accompaniment as
played with the left hand and stays mainly in the range of
intervals playable with one hand (approx. within one octave).
You can vary the setting of the keyboard register range (see "Turn
Range" below).
Chordal Open
With open voicing, also known as "open harmony", which
produces a relatively wide harmonization, chords can be formed
in a range that exceeds the intervals playable with one hand.
Chordal open voices the harmonic progression by using
transpositions. You can specify a transposition limit for the root
notes (see "Transpose Limit" below).
Scalic Chord
Use this preset is you want to use notes in the accompaniment
phrase that do not occur in the C major chord (C-E-G). It would
be possible, for instance, to create an accompaniment pattern in
the blues or jazz style, in which the major seventh or other fourth
or fifth chord voices are sounded already together with the basic
chords.
