16.6.1. SCALE Root Note
The first SCALE parameter is Root Note. On the keyboard, it is mapped to Knob 1 of the Control
section in Scale Edit mode. Setting the root note of a scale means deciding what key the scale will
begin with. The following notes of the scale depend on which scale pattern you select with the
SCALEType parameter (see below). You can transpose any scale pattern up or down by selecting
a different Root Note.
The Root Note setting includes the following values:
• C , C#, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G#, A, A#, B
16.6.2. SCALE Bank and Type
The second and third SCALE parameters from the left are Bank and Type. On the keyboard, they
are mapped to Knob 2 and Knob 3 of the Control section in Scale Edit mode. Use them to decide
the scale pattern according to which the notes will be mapped onto the keys of the KOM-
PLETE KONTROL keyboard. Each Bank consists of 15 thematically related scales, which can be
selected by using the Type control.
For example, using the default Root Note value C combined with the default TypeMajor from the
default BankMain, you get the scale C major, which spans over one octave and contains the notes
C, D, E, F, G, A, and B (followed by C again). If instead you select G as your Root Note, the G
major scale contains the notes G, A, B, C, D, E, and F# (followed by G again). You will notice that
the distance between each note follows the same pattern of “whole step–whole step–half step–
whole step–whole step–whole step–half step,” which is the pattern of the Major scale.
If you are triggering an Instrument via an incoming MIDI pattern from the host, the notes of the
MIDI pattern will be mapped onto the closest keys belonging to the selected Type. This means
that, for example (with Root Note set to C) a MIDI pattern consisting of the notes C-D-D# will be
played back as such if Type is set to Chromatic (named CHROM on the keyboard) from
BankMain, but instead as C-D-E if Type is set to Major.
The following scales are available:
