15.6.2 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
KOMPLETE 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 Type Major from
the default Bank Main , 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.
