LEFT HAND CONTROLLER
Grandmother’s Left-Hand Controller is home to numerous performance
and programming controls including PITCH and MOD wheels, a GLIDE
control, and transport controls for the Arpeggiator and Sequencer.
ARP / SEQUENCER CONTROLS
The PLAY, HOLD, and TAP buttons provide access to, and
control over, the ARP / SEQ module. When recording a
sequence, their function changes and they become the
(TIE), (REST), and (ACCENT) buttons. To learn more about
the Arpeggiator and Sequencer, go to page 27.
OCTAVE TRANSPOSE
Grandmother is designed to behave and function like a
traditional analog instrument, but changing keyboard octaves
is a useful function for live performance and interfacing with
other MIDI equipped devices. To transpose the keyboard by
octave units, simply press and hold the
[
SHIFT
]
button, and
then press the
[
<KB
]
button (down one octave) or
[
KB>
]
button (up one octave).
PITCH
The PITCH wheel provides an intuitive method for quickly bending the pitch of the
Oscillators up or down during live performance.
NOTE: The PITCH wheel is spring-loaded and will return to center position as soon
as it is released.
