Bank A avoids more dissonant chords like augmented, diminished and dominant chords, that may be
more difficult to fit in the composition without musical theory background. Any of those chords are
substituted by other options like minor or minor variants in any other inversion or 6th chords, some of
them introducing modulations (chords out of the scale with notes out of the scale). Avoiding this way
the augmented 3rd or the diminished 5th intervals.
Augmented, diminished and dominant chords, among others, can be found in Bank B, depending on
the selected scale. Bank B has been added in 3.0 fw.
The currently supported scales in Chord mode are:
The 7 diatonic scales: Major, Minor, Dorian, Phrygian, Lydian, Mixolydian, Locrian, Pentatonic Major
and Minor, Harmonic Minor and Melodic Minor (ascending).
RECORDING CHORDS

be recorded using the Chord modifiers of the Chord built-in keyboard: Chord Type, Voicing and
Spread.
But recording the arp notes generated by the chord arpeggiator is not supported.
CHORDS INTERNAL MODULATION
All the chord parameters but chord Bank and Auto Voicing can be modulated with the available
modulation sources: LFOs, MOD Lanes and MOD CV IN. It can be checked in the Internal destination
