1. Pads. When selected, the Screen Encoder will change
how the layout of the pads appear.
• Keys. Follows the layout of a piano. White keys on the bottom lane
and black keys on the top lane. If a Scale type is selected (other than
Chromatic), the bright pads will guide you to play the correct notes in the
scale. The dim pads are considered “wrong notes” but are still playable.
• Blocks. Assigns one drum bank to the left side and one
drum bank to the right side. The first bank begins on
Pad 1 and the second bank begins on Pad 9.
• Continuous. Assigns all pitches from left to right starting from the bottom
lane (pads 1-16), then continuing in the upper lane (pads 17-32).
2. Range/Transpose. When selected, turning the Screen Encoder will
either change the viewable range of the keyboard in Key mode, or
transpose the pads in either Blocks or Continuous modes.
3. Octave. When selected, the Screen Encoder will transpose the pads
note assignments up or down in musical octaves (7 possible octaves).
Note: The octave can also be changed using the B-H buttons.
4. Scale. When selected, the Screen Encoder will change the pads note
assignments and constrain them to the selected musical Scale.
• Chromatic, all possible notes are available
• Major
• Melodic Minor
• Harmonic Minor
• Natural Minor
• Major Pentatonic
• Minor Pentatonic
• Blues
• Dorian Minor
