Play around! The values of the two sliders will come out 2B and 2C, and a trigger will
come out 2A, so you can add those controls and extend your patch.

The filter will be controlled by the surface area you are covering on the hexagon that is
currently active (outputting pitch information).

Try touching the top-left and top-right round buttons on the Manta. These will
transpose up and down by an octave. The amount of transposition will be shown on the
7-segment display of the MantaMate (with the red LED to the left of the display
lighting to indicate negative numbers).

Try holding down the bottom-right round button while touching the top-left and top-
right buttons. This will transpose by a semitone.

You can change the
hexmap
, which is how the pitches are mapped to the hexagons, by
entering the Left Option Menu. Enter the Left Option Menu by holding down the
bottom-left round button on the Manta. While holding this button down, touch one of
the hexagons on the left side of the bottom row. There are six different built-in
hexmaps
available there. To create your own
hexmap
