Chord Pads
Assigning Chords to Chord Pads
566
2. In the Chord Assistant window, click the chord symbols to trigger the corresponding
chords.
3. To assign a chord, drag it from the Chord Assistant window and drop it on the chord
pad.
NOTE
If one of the next chord pads is free, you can also right-click the chord in the Chord
Assistant window and select Assign to Pad. This assigns the chord to the next free pad.
Assigning Chords with the MIDI Keyboard
If you know which chord you want to assign to a specific chord pad, you can use a MIDI
keyboard.
PREREQUISITE
You have selected a MIDI track or an instrument track.
PROCEDURE
1. Right-click the chord pad that you want to use for the new chord, and select Assign
Pad from MIDI Input.
The borders of the chord pad change their color to indicate that it is now ready for
recording.
2. On your MIDI keyboard, press the keys for the chord that you want to assign.
The chord and its voicing is assigned to the chord pad, and you hear an acoustic
feedback of the chord.
NOTE
The assigned voicing can be changed by the Adaptive Voicing setting. Therefore, if you
want to keep the voicing for that specific pad, right-click the chord pad and select Lock
from the context menu.

Assigning Chords from the Chord Track
You can assign the chord events from the chord track to the chord pads.
PROCEDURE
• To the left of the chord pads click the Functions Menu button, and select Assign Pads
from Chord Track.
If chords are already assigned to the chord pads, a warning message informs you that
all previous assignments will be overwritten.
RESULT
The chord events are assigned to the chord pads in the same order as they appear on the
chord track.
