Choosing the original key/chord and the
note transposition table
You will record the musical sequences in a particular key (say, C), matching a
chord shape (say, Major). You will then choose a transposition table accord-
ing to which they will be transposed and transformed when a different key
and a slightly different chord will be recognized.

Choosing the Original Key/Chord for the selected track
▪
Use the
Key
and
Chord
pop-up menus to define the original
key/chord root
and
chord type
for the
selected Style track
(or the
Pad track
) in the
current
Chord Variation
.
When playing this exact chord, the recorded patterns will play without any
transformation. No transposition, no processing will be applied.
When you select a track, the original key/chord assigned to the selected
track will be shown. All recorded tracks will play back on that same key/
chord. For example, if the original key/chord for the Acc1 track is A7th, when
selecting the Acc1 track all the other tracks will play on the A7th key/chord.
In the example above, you will record the Acc1 track in the AMajor key, with
notes pertaining to the A7th scale. This exact pattern will be recalled when
an A7th chord will be recognized.
Key/Chord doesn’t apply to Guitar tracks, controlled by different transfor-
mation rules.
