Arturia KeyStep 37 MIDI Keyboard Controller and Sequencer - Manual (Page 32)

3.1.3. Setting Chord span with Notes
The Notes knob sets the number of notes in your chord, from 2 to 16. It takes the root
note you play on the keyboard and adds notes in the currently selected chord type, over a
maximum of 4 octaves. The chord notes added in the first two octaves are replicated in the
upper octaves. Fully counter-clockwise only two notes will play: the root note and the second
note of the currently selected Chord type. Turning the Notes knob clockwise will add more
notes until, at the full-clockwise position the chord is extended to 16 notes. The number in the
display will show how many notes are currently added to the root note.
If for example, you have set chord type to '-', which is short for minor, and play a 'C3' on the
keyboard, the chord generator will add an Eb3 and a G3 to it and replicate these notes in
the octaves above adding C4, Eb4, G4, C5, Eb5, G5, C6, Eb6, G6, C7, Eb7 and G7.
Note: When selecting the Oct type a maximum of three notes can be added.
