• Press a white key to latch a scale tone on, press again to switch it off, up to sixteen at once.
• Black keys glide the tone beside them by one to four scale steps, one click up, a double click down, the next click home.
• Two oscillators give warm voices with overtones, undertones, FLOAT motion, detune LFO and an interval voice that follows the key or stays pure.
• Twenty-two presets, twenty-five scales including chord scales, and equal or just tuning keep everything in key.
• Tape echo, ladder filter, delay and shimmer reverb sit after the voices, with tempo sync and tap tempo.
• Tap SEQ for a drum track of twenty-seven synthesized slots, sixteen steps each, with probability, ratchets, scatter and a COLOR knob.
• ARP rolls a completely new random beat, and PLAY starts and stops the drums.
• MIDI over USB, BLE and DIN plays the keyboard and drums, and MIDI clock sets the tempo.
