Choosing a Key/Chord
With Guitar tracks, the Key/Chord parameter usually sets the chord used for
prelistening while programming the pattern.
Intro 1 and Ending 1 behave in a different way, since they contain programmed
chord sequences. In this case, this is the reference key that will allow the cor-
rect transposition during playback.
Chord progressions for Intro 1 and Ending 1 have to be entered in the
Event
Edit page. The root notes are entered in the lowest MIDI octave (from C-1 to
B-1), under the normal range of a piano keyboard. Chord types are inserted
by using velocity values, as shown in the following table:
Out of the 88-note piano range
