Key/Chord area
Key/Chord
This parameter pair allows you to define the track's original key
and chord type, for the current Chord Variation. When in Style
Play mode, this chord will be played back exactly as it was
recorded, without any NTT processing (see above).
To record just one Chord Variation for a Style Element, the sug-
gested original key/chord is "maj7" (with NTT = i-Series). Be
very careful to play the 7th+ note (i.e., with a "Cmaj7th" key/
chord, the B), to avoid the lack of notes, or a bad NTT conver-
sion when playing different chords.
Note: To conform to Korg specifications, it is advisable to record
both the "Major" and "minor" Chord Variations for the Intro 1
and Ending 1 Style Elements.
When you select a track, the original key/chord assigned to the
selected track will be shown. All recorded tracks will play back
on that key/chord. For example, if the original key/chord for the
Acc1 track is A7th, when selecting the Acc1 track all the remain-
ing tracks will play on the A7th key/chord.
In the example above, you will record the Acc1 track in the AMa-
jor key, with notes pertaining to the A7th scale. This exact pat-
tern will be recalled, when an A7th chord will be recognized.
Copy Key/Ch (Copy Key/Chord) button
Press this button in the display to copy Key/Chord settings of the
currently selected track to all other tracks of the same Chord
Variation, or to the whole Style. This function is useful to speed-
up pattern programming, and to avoid having different tracks in
different keys within the same Chord Variation.
Current Chord Variation Tracks
The Key/Chord of the current track will be cop-
ied to all tracks of the current Chord Variation.
All Style Tracks
The Key/Chord of the current track will be cop-
ied to all tracks of the Style (i.e., all Chord Varia-
tions).
