How to enter Select Note Mode (SNM)
SNM is activated by sending a suitable CC value above 64. Which particular CC value you choose is
left up to you: Go to the Option page and enter the desired CC number in the “MicroTuning (ON
OFF)” field. Entering “64” will define the sustain pedal, which is the most suitable option for this
task. Pressing and holding down the pedal switches SNM on and highlights the key switches (in
blue).
Note: CC64 (sus pedal) is, by default, assigned to Sustain/BowChange (see the OPTIONS page,
“NoteOff Sust.”). If you are using the sustain pedal for Microtuning, Sustain/BowChange must be
assigned to another controller, or to none.
How to detune selected notes
1. Enter Select Note Mode (SNM) by pressing and holding down the sustain pedal (or send a
value greater than 64 via the CC you have assigned for Microtuning); the key switches will
turn blue.
2. Press the key switches (evenly and simultaneously) that correspond to the notes you want to
detune. The detuned notes will be displayed by the microtuning bar graphs in the Main GUI
(see “Microtuning using the mouse” above).
3. Exit SNM by releasing the sustain pedal (or send a value below 64 via the CC assigned for
this task).
For example: if you need an Arabic scale in C and want to detune all E and B notes -50 cents, the
steps would be:
1. Press and hold the sustain pedal
2. Briefly press E1 and B1
3. Release the sustain pedal
The affected notes and how much they have been detuned will be displayed in the instrument GUI:
