10 QWERTY Musical Typing Keyboard (MTK)
If you don't have a MIDI keyboard attached to your computer, the standard QWERTY
computer keyboard can be used to play notes - we're pretty sure you've got one of those!
We'll refer to this as the "MTK." Following is a list of MTK keyboard modifiers and functions:
Opening and Closing the MTK - click the the circular keyboard icon in the
top toolbar. To close the MTK, click the keyboard icon in the top toolbar,
or click the X in the top right corner.
Play Notes- To trigger notes, simply press the corresponding computer keyboard key or
mouse click the onscreen keys.
Adjust Currently Visible MTK Range- Slide the purple scroll bar horizontally to adjust the
currently visible keyboard range.
Adjust Overall Visible Keyboard Range- Clicking and dragging the right edge of the MTL
window allows the overall size of the window to be adjusted. This lets you view more or less
of the onscreen keyboard. Note that the MTK window's borders cannot exceed the overall
outside dimensions of the MG-1 Plus window.
Shift Range Up/Down Octave- Click the OCT- and OCT+ buttons at the top left and right of
the onscreen MTK. The current range is displayed above the keyboard.
Shift Range Up/Down Semitone- Click the STEP- and STEP+ buttons at the bottom left and
right of the onscreen MTK. The current range is displayed above the keyboard.
Hide/View Controllers- Clicking CONTROL at the far left hides and displays velocity, bender,
mod, and sustain control parameters. Hiding the control view makes more space available
for the keyboard.
Set Note Velocity- Move the purple VELOCITY bar to adjust the output velocity of notes.
This will only be audible if the VEL sliders in the VCF or VCA sections are raised.
