Use Shape
[Off, On]
When this is On, non-zero pitch values will be scaled by the Shape Lane. If the pitch offsets are zero, Shape has no
effect. Note that Shape interacts with Transition, below; to hear Shapes unaltered, set Transition to Off.
Transitn (Transition)
[Off, Lin, Exp, Log, Indv]
This controls whether the pitch changes abruptly at each new step, or glides to the new value.
Off: Pitch will change abruptly at each step. This is the default.
Lin: The pitch will glide linearly from step to step.
Exp: The pitch will glide from step to step, with most of the change at the end of the glide.
Log: The pitch will glide from step to step, with most of the change at the start of the glide.
Indv (Individual): The pitch transitions will be controlled separately per Step. This lets you create melodic patterns
which combine abrupt steps and glides, like a classic bass groove-box.
Fit to Scale
[Off, On]
This lets you constrain the Pitch Lane’s output to a specific scale and key—especially useful when playing
polyphonically.
Off: Pitch offsets will be played exactly as they are entered in the sequence.
On: Pitches will be constrained to the specified scale and key.
(Scale Key)
[C…B]
This sets the root note of the scale. For instance, if Scale Key is set to E, and the Scale Type is set to Minor, all notes
generated by the Pitch Lane will be confined to notes in the E Minor scale: E, F#, G, A, B, C, or D.
Scale Key only applies if Fit To Scale is On.
