45 DeepMind 12 User Manual 9. The trigger key is now ready for use. In the above example, with the POLY CHORD switch still on, each time you press the G3 key, the poly chord made up of C3, E3, and G3 will play. 10. When the poly chord is created, other soft keys options appear: • REC - you can repeat this process and record other triggers within the 4 banks. • DEL - you can delete the current trigger if you are still on it (highlighted), or you can navigate to any of the triggers you want to delete. • VIEW - the screen will show details of the current trigger, as shown below. This is only a view, and nothing can be edited here. ("CAT, TYPE, and MOD" values only appear when using the WIZARD.) POLY CHORD CREATION USING THE WIZARD The poly chord "WIZARD" allows you to create a poly chord from predefined templates, with four main categories and various types. A variety of modifiers are also available to tailor the generated chord to your requirements. Chords and modifiers can be previewed in real-time by changing the chord creation parameters and/or the root note as you listen. The Wizard has the following templates. Further details and examples are shown in the tables in the Appendices of this manual. CAT MAJOR MINOR TYPE Ma, Ma7, Ma9, Add9, SuS4, 6, 6//9 Mi, Mi7,Mi9, Mi6, Mi6/9, Mi11,Mi7b5, MiMaj7 DOM 7, 9, 7SuS4, 9SuS4, 11, 7#5, 9#5, 7b5, 7#9, 7b5b9, 13, #9#5 DIM DIM, Au9, Dim7 Press CLOSE to return to the previous screen: • CAT - Category, select from four chord groups. Selecting a new category will cause TYPE to automatically jump to the first item in the new category. • TYPE - Each Category (CAT) has a selection of chord types available. As you cycle through the various types, upon reaching the last chord type, the current CAT will step to the next available CAT. For example, upon reaching the end of the MAJ CAT (6//9) pressing +/YES will move into the first item in MIN CAT (Mi). • MOD - BASS, SPREAD, and SPREAD2 modifiers can applied to the selected chord, as shown below, or select OFF for no modifier. • BASS MODIFIER - Add the number of selected BASS notes to the chord in the selected OCTAVE (default -1). For example if you have a chord with a root note of F3, 1 note and OCTAVE set to -1, the wizard will add F2, as shown below: 11. If you then press EXIT, it will return to the usual PROG display, except that the POLY CHORD switch will still be illuminated, and so pressing the trigger (such as G3 above) will still play the chord. Press POLY CHORD to turn off the poly chord feature (then key G3 and any other triggers return to their normal one-note use). PLAYING 1. Press the POLY CHORD switch once to enter poly chord mode, and the switch will illuminate. The display will help you see where the triggers are. Use the BNK UP soft switch to move up the banks. You can play other notes at the same time as playing a trigger, but only one trigger at a time. • SPREAD MODIFIER - Add any selected note type to the selected OCTAVE (default -1) regardless of the notes in the parent CHORD. Shown below: C2 being added by the modifier: ILLUMINATED 2. Press the POLY CHORD switch again to exit the poly chord mode. The trigger keys will return to normal operation.
