HOW IT WORKS

MT-1 allows playing in four modes. Each of these makes different modification of input notes you play on MIDI controller

SNAP LEFT

If played note does not belong to the programmed scale (orange key) then MT-1 will find closest note on the left and play it instead.

SNAP RIGHT

If played note does not belong to the programmed scale (orange key) then MT-1 will find closest note on the right and play it instead.

FILTER

Filter mode mutes notes that are not in the programmed scale

BYPASS

Additional mode which quickly disables any processing of input notes. It's like if you directly connected MIDI controller to synthesizer.

FACTORY PRESETS

Factory presets include most popular scales as well as some more exotic ones:

​

  • Major

  • Minor

  • Harmonic Minor

  • Pentatonic Major

  • Pentatonic Minor

  • Blues

  • Dorian

  • Phrygian

  • Lydian

​

*Chromatic mode is different than bypass mode because like other scales can be played on white keys only and it's transposable.

PROGRAMMING SCALES

  • select scale you want to edit

  • enter Scale edit mode and play notes with your MIDI controller

  • change the key note using MIDI controller

  • edit name

  • it's ready to play the new scale!
