Global Scale
Global Scale
[Off, On]
On: The settings on this page control the instrument’s scales. Performance scales are ignored.
Off: The scale settings on this page are ignored.
Active Scale
[1, 2]
If Global Scale is On, this chooses which of the two scales below is used. You can control this via MIDI. See also
“Octave Selects Scale,” below.
1 (Scale 1)
[List of Scales]
This selects the first scale to be used.
(Key)
[C…B]
This controls the root key of the scale. Key applies only to repeating 12-note scales.
Note: Specific combinations of Scale and Key may skew the reference tuning pitch. For example, A4 might become 442
Hz, instead of 440 Hz. Use Master Tune to correct this, if necessary.
2 (Scale 2)
(Key)
These are the second Scale and its associated Key.
Octave Selects Scale
[Off, On]
If this is On, the OCTAVE down button selects Scale 1, and OCTAVE up selects Scale 2 (for either the Global or
Performance scale, depending on which is in use). SHIFT+OCTAVE then performs octave up/down functionality.
Layer Transpose
[Transposes Scale, Within Scale]
This parameter determines how the Layer Transpose parameters interact with the Scale and Key.
Within Scale means that transposition uses intervals within the current scale. This option works well if you are using
non-equal-tempered scales and want to build parallel intervals (such as “fat fifths”) into your sounds. For example, let’s
say that you are using Just Intonation in the key of C. If you transpose one of the Timbres up by 7 semitones and play a
C, the result will be two notes: C, and G 2 cents sharp (the Just Intonation fifth).
Transposes Scale means that the Scale’s Key changes to match the transposition. This option is useful if you play in
non-equal-tempered scales and transpose entire songs—to accommodate singers, for example. In other words, let’s say
Layer B Mod Knobs 1…8 88…95
Layer C Mod Knobs 1…8 102…109
Layer D Mod Knobs 1-8 110…117
