The only KEY MODE parameter is Mode. On the keyboard, it is mapped to Knob 3 of the Control
section in Scale Edit mode. It defines how the selected is mapped to the keys of the keyboard.
This is also reflected by the Light Guide.
The KEY MODE parameter Mode.
The KEY MODE menu consists of the following three modes, which are described in detail below:
• Guide
• Mapped (default value)
• Easy
Mapped Mode (Default)
In Mapped mode, the notes are mapped to the keyboard according to the selected scale. Notes
outside of the selected scale are not active. Pressing the corresponding keys will trigger the next
available note in the selected scale. The Light Guide highlights the active keys via lit LEDs. The
Root Note is indicated by a brighter lit LED.
Both sections Root Note and Scale Type describe the use of Scale on the assump-
tion that the KEY MODE is set to its default value Mapped.
