10.9.10. Drum Map

There are four options for the MIDI note assignments of the pads in Drum mode:

Chromatic:

MIDI notes 36-51 are spread evenly across pads 1-16

General MIDI:

pads 1-16 conform to the General MIDI specification.

Spark:

Conforms to the layout of our Spark drum controllers.

Custom:

user-definable drum mapping. Enter a MIDI note value for each pad

with its knob or by double-clicking in the field and entering a number. Each drum

can also be assigned to any one of the 16 MIDI channels or the

Drum Send

Channel [p.118]

.

10.9.11. User Scale

To create your own User Scale for the encoders, turn each note on or off.

For example, if you wanted to set up a whole-tone scale that starts with C, turn off C#, D#,

F, G, A and B. That way the encoders will only select C, D, E, F#, G# and A# when they are

turned.

As with the other Scales, if the User Scale is selected it will dictate which notes will played

back by a sequence. See the

Scales [p.28]

section of the

Step Sequencer [p.24]

chapter for

more information.
