10.2.2. Pitch / Scale
For the Pitch track, or when tracks 3 or 4 are in Pitch mode, the CV output is quantized to
a scale. The Pitch track, Track 3 and Track 4 each contain a Scale and a Root Note that are
saved with the pattern.
You can edit the Pitch of a step in Step mode by turning the associated Step encoder. The
velocity value will be shown on the display, with values ranging from C0 to C6.
To select a scale, hold Shift and press one of the Scale pads (#9-16).
♪
: The scales are described extensively in the
section of the manual.
10.2.2.1. How the root note of a pattern is determined
The actual note sent by a MiniBrute 2 pattern at any given moment is the sum of two parts:
1. The note being played by the current step, as determined by the current scale
2. The transposition amount set by a pad or by a note received over MIDI. (See the
section for more information.)
10.2.2.2. Setting the Root note
Here's the process for setting the root note for a Pitch-based track:
• Hold Shift and press one of the Scale pads. Keep holding it until the end of the
example.
• Still holding the selected Scale pad, use the Tempo/Value knob. You'll see note
names as the knob is turned (C, C#, D, etc.).
• Once you have selected a root note, release the Scale pad.
When track 3 or track 4 are set to the Pitch track type:
• The pitch mode can be set to V/Oct mode or Hz/V mode using the
.
• If the track is in V/Oct mode the lowest pitch should output 0V, and the highest
pitch 6V
• If the track is in Hz/V mode, the output is based on which note results in a 1V
output. The default is C0 = 1V, but that can be changed with the
.
10.2.2.3. Secondary function for Pitch: Slide
The secondary function that is edited by holding Shift and turning the step encoders is a
Slide. The Slide function values range from 0 to 100. At 0, the CV instantly jumps to the new
value. At 100, the CV goes to the new value in a straight line.
