Ticks or in hours (HH), minutes (MM), seconds (SS), and frames (FF).
Use the Type selector to determine what will be mapped over the pads:
• Notes: Each pad is assigned a note, ascending by one scale degree with each pad.
• Chords: Each pad is assigned a chord, the root note ascending by one scale degree with each
pad. All available chords will play in the key determined by the Scale.
• Chromatic Chords: Each pad is assigned a chord, the root note ascending by one scale degree
with each pad. You can play any chord type regardless of the key determined by the Scale.
Essentially, this is like the Chords setting but with more options to play chords out of the set key.
• Progressions: Each pad is assigned a chord in a chord progression. You can play the pads in (or
out of) order to construct songs quickly. The available chords are determined by the Chord field.
