Octave Mode.

Octave Mode improves upon the functionality of a

mechanical octave switch. With an ordinary VCO in a

modular system, setting the relationship between the

note pressed on a keyboard and what is heard is

often requires an independent reference at a known

pitch, usually a non-modular synth. The Octave Mode

of the Z3000 makes this task a quick and efficient

process.

While in Octave Mode, the display will show the

relative octave of the note being heard (“OCt2”,

“OCt3”, etc). As the pitch approaches a C in any

octave, the display will change and show how close

the pitch is to the defined note within 50 cents on

either side of the note.
