3. FUNCTIONS

3.1 Mode

Please choose one of the three modes with the switch:
MANUALLY:
Chords are set manually at the module.
In this mode fundamental note, octave, chord and inversion are set manually. A changing of the
chord (chord, inversion) is displayed by blinking of the LEDs.
The adoption of the new adjusted chord happens with the OK switch. Keynote, octave and 2nd
tone will be adopted directly without affirmation.
The inputs CHORD, TRANSPOSE and TRIGGER are inactiv.
2nd tone can be operated externally and adopts a possibly previous changing of the chord.
QUANT:
The output voltages of the chords follow the voltage at the transpose CV input starting from 1 volt
in halftone steps (quantized).
In this mode too you can put manually keynote, octave, chord and inversion. Additionally the
parameters can be effected also via CV input for CHORD and TRANSPOSE (starting from 1
volt). A changing of the chord is indicated by blinking LEDs.
The adoption of the new adjusted chord happens with OK switch, a positive trigger-in-impuls or
the changing of "2nd tone".
Starting from 1 volt at the transpose input the keynote can be adjusted via CV. Then the octave
will be added to the adjusted octave of the octave switch.
Keynote, octave and 2nd tone will be adopted immediately.
DIRECTLY:
The output voltages of the chords follow directly the voltage at transpose CV input (not quanti-
zed).
In this mode the input voltage is not quantized but the tone pitch of the chord follows directly the
input voltage. The tone key, tone pitch and octave
are determined directly by the impressed voltage.
You adjust the chord here the same way as in mode QUANT.
