Note: To select a scale, hold the SCALE button, then press and release
any one of the GATES. If you press multiple GATES while holding SCALE,
you will create a chain that will play back in the order the GATES were
pressed.
SCALE+GATES to chain scales
To create a SCALE chain, press several GATE buttons consecutively while
holding the SCALE button – the selected scales will be chained in the
same order in the sequencer. That means that each time the first step
starts, the active scale will advance to the next scale in the chain. When
the sequencer is stopped, the SCALE chain can be moved to the next
scale by triggering the RESET input.
Example: Make a simple 8 step sequence. Keep holding the SCALE button
and press the following GATE buttons in this order: 8+8+5+4. You have
just written down this chord progression: Cmaj Cmaj Fmaj Gmaj (with the
factory default scales) that advances with every repetition of the 8 steps.
SCALE EDITING
Select a scale (SCALE+GATE). To edit the scale, keep holding SCALE and
press the UP/DOWN/TEMPO button. Once you press one of these, you
are in the Scale Edit mode. The GATE lights indicate a currently selected
semitone and whether it is active in the scale.
To exit the Scale Edit mode, release SCALE or press another GATE to select
a different scale. To stay in the Scale Edit mode, keep holding SCALE.
