Key Edit Modes

The active Key Edit mode selects whether clicking on a key on the Lower Keyboard edits the Bypass or Xclude state of the corresponding pitch.

When in MIDI MAP mode, selects wether MIDI notes are used to map the pitches (Xclude) or to un-mute a pitch (Bypass)

Edit Mode

The active Edit mode defines behavior when editing Mapping Sliders, Bypass/Xclude states via the Lower Keyboard and when using MIDI MAP.

Edit Mode: Repeat

When Edit mode is set to Repeat, any value edited is copied to all octaves. Example: when dragging a Mapping Slider associated with a “C”, the

same value is applied to every “C” in all octaves. Useful for quickly mapping one pitch class to another across the entire spectrum. When using

MIDI MAP, playing a chord results in the entire range being mapped to that harmony, giving results instantly.

Edit Mode: Visible

Edit mode Visible works like Repeat, but restricts the range to the visible three octaves. Example: setting Bypass enabled using the Lower

Keyboard for an “A” causes all “A” keys in the visible three octave range to be set to the same value. Visible mode helps tailor independent

intra-scale voicings for different frequency ranges (basically for bass, harmonies and melodies). In MIDI MAP mode, the range outside of the

visible area is divided into two separate Repeat zones.

Edit Mode: Custom

In the Custom setting, only the exact key/slider/note that you edit is changed, leaving all other values alone. In MIDI MAP mode, this allows

playing completely independent phrases in varying parts of the MIDI keyboard. This even allows mapping all source pitches to a single

destination pitch (which can sound very cool)!
