Key

The entire chord map is transposed by the amount set here (±99 semitones).

Example: if you map C to CEG, and set key to 1, then C# will be mapped to C#FG#.

Example: if you want to map single notes to triads within a given key, first set the key,

then define each of the triad chords (see below). When you want notes mapped to the

triads in a different key, just change the key parameter.

Chord Memorizer Window

Double-clicking on the chord memorizer opens the chord memorizer window, where

you can set up chord definitions.

The top keyboard is used for input/display of the incoming note, and the lower

keyboard is for input/display of the assigned chords. Notes can be input using the

mouse, or a MIDI keyboard.

Remember to only use notes that fall within the Lim range on the top keyboard. Also

remember that you can only define one chord for each of the 12 pitch classes (C, C#, D,

and so on). You can, of course, use more than one chord memorizer.

Entering Chords with the Mouse

• First, click the input note on the top keyboard. All notes in the associated chord will

be inverted on the bottom keyboard.

• Next, click notes on the bottom keyboard until the inverted notes of the desired

chord are shown. You can turn notes on or off on the bottom keyboard by clicking

on them. You don’t need to stay within the same octave as the input note.

• When you have entered the desired notes for your chord, select another input note

(on the top keyboard), or close the chord memorizer window.

Entering Chords from Your MIDI Keyboard

• First play the “input note”.

• Click the Listen checkbox. The lower keyboard is inverted, indicating it’s readiness to

record.

• Now play the notes of the desired chord. You can play them one at a time, or as a

chord. If you make a mistake, uncheck the Listen checkbox, then check it again to

start over.

• When you’ve entered the desired notes for your chord, uncheck the Listen checkbox

and play a new input note, or close the chord memorizer window.
