Hit a few pads: Each pad triggers a chord containing the pad’s original note (the “1” in
1-3) and the note two pads above (the “3” in 1-3). No matter which pads you hit, all
chords use notes within the scale we have specified (the minor pentatonic scale based on
D).

1. Turn Knob 3 (Chord MODE) to select Chord Set.

In the left display the Scale TYPE parameter (Knob 1) disappears and the Chord TYPE
parameter (Knob 4) offers other entries. The light from the pads on the top row of your
controller go off and the pads are disabled. The other 12 pads trigger various chords indi-
cated in the right display. You can switch to another set of 12 chords by turning Knob 4
(Chord TYPE). These chords are not bound to the minor pentatonic scale anymore, how-
ever they are still based on the selected root note (indicated in the top right of the left
display).
