If CHORD Mode is set to Chd Set and, for example, the Root Note is set to C, then the CHORD
Type menu presents you with a list of selectable chords. Values are, e.g., Maj 4 and Min 7,
which would generate a major and minor chord, respectively—both using C as the chord’s root
note.
When CHORD Mode is set to Chd Set, the CHORD Type setting includes the following values:
▪ Maj 1
▪ Maj 2
▪ Maj 3
▪ Maj 4
▪ Maj 5
▪ Maj 6
▪ Maj 7
▪ Maj 8
▪ Min 1
▪ Min 2
▪ Min 3
▪ Min 4
▪ Min 5
▪ Min 6
▪ Min 7
▪ Min 8
Chord Type and the Chromatic Scale
The Chrom scale consists of every semitone in an octave. That means that when you play every
white key and every black key of an octave up or down, you are playing the 12-step Chrom
scale. Since all semitones of an octave are present in the Scale, you can use all keys to form
chords. In turn, selecting Chrom as SCALE Type means that you can select virtually any
CHORD Type. The following chords are available and can be generated:
