37 DeepMind 12D User Manual • The letter T on the highlighted key shows the last played note. • The letter E appears on the key as well, as this is a MIDI trigger from your external keyboard. • The small dots on the keys show the current component notes of the chord. CHORD SCREEN SOFT KEYS - At the bottom of the chord screen are 3 labels which indicate the software function of the illuminated PROG, GLOBAL and WRITE switches. If no previous chord is present, the display will show the status of the chord programming function, for example: ARMED, LEARNING, or PRESS TRIGGER, as explained later. 4. The status line shows the text "CUSTOM-TYPE-NOTES" where: • CUSTOM - indicates this is a chord you have created. • TYPE - If the chord type is recognized as one that is saved in the WIZARD memory (described in the Poly Chord section later), then the chord TYPE is displayed. For example, the chord shown above is TYPE = Ma. • NOTES - The component notes of the chord. 5. You will now be asked to assign the chord to a trigger key: "PRESS TRIGGER" will appear in the display as shown: FLASHING SLOW • PROG switch - Performs the EXIT function and returns to the PROG screen. • GLOBAL switch - Used to RECORD a new chord over an existing chord. • WRITE switch - Used to DELETE the chord, but only once a chord is programmed (otherwise this area will be blank and the WRITE switch will not be illuminated) Note: The chord is stored in persistent memory and will be retained through a power cycle. Only one chord is created and stored at a time. Note: The chord memory can also be cleared using the "bootloader" menu described later in this document. Note: The chord size is limited to 12 notes. CHORD PROGRAMMING 1. To program a chord, first press the CHORD switch. If there is no previous chord in memory, the CHORD switch will begin double flashing and the message "ARMED" will appear in the display as shown: 2X FLASHING FAST 6. Press any key on your keyboard, and the screen will change to show the details of your new custom chord in the status line. The example below is a Major chord (Ma) with the trigger F3, and notes F3, A3, and C4. ILLUMINATED • PLAYING THE CHORD - While the CHORD switch is still illuminated, press any key on the keyboard to play the chord you just programmed. The chord will be transposed from the root note to every key that you play. • RECORDING A NEW CHORD - While you are still in the chord mode (the CHORD switch is still illuminated), you can record a new chord and overwrite the existing chord, by pressing the REC soft switch. The existing chord will be deleted and "ARMED" will appear again, allowing you to program a new chord as before. • DELETING THE CHORD - To delete the chord, press the DEL soft switch. The chord will be deleted and "ARMED" will appear again, allowing you to program a new chord as before. 2. Play the desired chord, and "LEARNING" will appear in the display as shown: 2X FLASHING FAST 3. You can add additional notes to the chord as long as at least one note is still being held down. Release all the keys when you are done. • EXITING THE CHORD SCREEN - Press the EXIT soft switch to exit the chord screen at any time. This will return you to the PROG screen, but the chord mode will still be active for playback, and the CHORD switch will still be illuminated.
