The first and last pad of each row light up more brightly than the middle pads to indicate root chord
position. To navigate between pages of chords use the ▲▼ navigation buttons. On the first page
the top row of pads are lit blue and contain triads, the bottom row of pads contains 7ths and is lit a
darker blue. Pressing the ▼ button will reveal a row of 9ths, with the pads lit up in purple, below this
are 6/9ths and the pads will light up in pink.
When a pad is pressed it will light up green and return to its original colour when released.
To change the octave of the chords simply hold Shift and press the ▲▼ buttons, these provide access
to a range of -3 to +3 octaves.
3.2.2 User Chord Mode
In User Chord Mode up to 6 note chords can be assigned to each pad. These chords will be saved to
the Launchkey’s internal memory and accessible between power cycles, meaning that any assignments
you make will still be available even after Launchkey is turned off and on again.
To enter User Chord Mode hold the Shift button and press the User Chord pad (bottom row, fourth
from the left).
