Polyend Synth - Notes & Chords

The grid pad in Synth is the primary means
of generating notes and chords. It is also
possible to connect an external MIDI
controller. The grid pad layout is exible
and can be congured with a structure to
suit the user. The pads are colored based
on the representative Synth and are
velocity-sensitive. The scale and root can
be set per Synth on the pads. A collection
of layout templates is provided for
presenting 1, 2, or all 3 synths across the
grid pads. A total of 8 voices are available
across all 3 synths, each of which can be
allocated a specic voice count depending
on its application. One unique feature of
Synth is the application of chords. Several
chord models are available, including
chord packs where a library of custom
chords can be used with Synth. These are
managed through the application of Chord
Packs. This expands the possibilities for live
play and ad-libs as well as sound designs.
Chord Pack chords can even be edited
using the on-board editor. Note that Synth
also has a sequencer and arpeggiator,
which can also drive the note and chord
application, and these functions are covered
in a dedicated section of this manual.
