Loading a Session Using Program Change
It is possible to load a Session by sending a ‘program change’ message to the device on channel 16. By default, the
indicated Session will load instantly. If 64 is added to the program ID the session load will be cued (during playback,
see Cued Session Switch).

12. Scales
A.
Enable/Disable Scales
Scales View provides an excellent entry point for beginners to start learning the fundamentals of chords and scales. It
also serves as an excellent refresher for intermediate players whose knowledge of harmony has become rusty.
Hold Shift then press the Scale button to enable/disable Scales View.
When Scales View is active notes will adhere to whatever scale you select, whether playing the keys or using the Se-
quencer. These scales range from tradi-tional scales of Western music (C Major, E Dorian etc.) to non-Western ones
like Marva. You can switch between scales in the Scale Settings (see Scale Settings).
When Scale is enabled the LEDs above the keys have the following behaviour:
•
Root notes light brightly.
•
Notes in the scale light dimly.
•
Notes outside of the scale are off (unlit).
In other words, with Scales View on, playing keys (either dimly or brightly lit) guarantees that you are playing notes
within your chosen scale.
B.
Scale Settings
Pressing the ‘Scale’ button brings many Scale Settings onto the screens.
i.
Root Note
The left-most option labelled ‘Root’, lets you change the root note of the scale. Turn the rotary knob above to set the
root of the scale from the following chromatic notes: C, C#, D, E, Eb, F, F#, G, Ab, A, Bb, and B.
