Param 1, 2, 3
Wrap maps notes bottom left to right and continues in order up the rows. The Row+
option will map the rst bottom row left to right in note order and also increment up each
pad per row in semitone increments as dened in Row+ i.e. Row+1 is 1 Semitone.
Polyphony:
Remember to congure a synth’s voices when using chords. For example a triad would need 3 voices to play the
chord. This setup is in the main menu under ‘synths’.
