Chord Pads
Chord Pad Settings – Pad Layout
For example, select a guitar sound and assign a Guitar Player.
8. Select the next instrument track, and proceed as for the other 2 tracks.
For example, select a string sound and assign a Basic Player.
9. Select all instrument tracks, and click Record Enable.
RESULT
You can now play the chord pads and use the remote control parameters for tensions and
transpose to change all chord symbols for each player simultaneously. However, if you change
the Voicing, only the selected player is affected.
Chord Pad Settings – Pad Layout
The Pad Layout tab in the chord pad Settings allows you to change the layout that is used for
the chord pads. By default, the keyboard layout is active, but you can change to a grid layout if
you prefer that. After changing the pad layout you may need to adjust the remote setup.
● To the left of the chord pads, click Show/Hide Settings and activate the Pad Layout tab.
1 Show/Hide Settings
Opens the settings for the chord pads.
2 Keyboard
Activate this to show the chord pads in a keyboard layout. You can display 1 or 2 octaves,
and you can select if the first chord pad starts with C, A or E.
3 Grid
Activate this to show the chord pads in a grid layout. You can display up to 4 rows and 16
columns.
4 Layout display
Shows how the active chord pad layout is displayed.
Chord Pads Presets
Chord pads presets are templates that can be applied to newly created or to existing chord pads.
Chord pads presets contain the chords that are assigned to the chord pads, as well as the player
configurations including any pattern data that you have imported via the MediaBay or by using
drag & drop. The chord pads presets allow you to quickly load chords, or reuse player settings.
The chord pads presets menu is located to the left of the chord pads. Chord pads presets are
organized in the MediaBay, and you can categorize them with attributes.
●
To save/load a chord pads preset, select Chord Pads Presets> Save/Load Chord Pads
Preset.
You can also load only the assigned chords from a chord pads preset, without loading the player
configurations. This is useful if you want to use specific chords that you have saved as a preset,
but do not want to alter your current player setting.
●
To load only the chords of a chord pads preset, select Chord Pads Presets> Load Chords
from Preset.
