Notes

Use this object to build musical scales and modes. The graphic represents the first 12 frets of a guitar neck. Each fret represents a ½ step on a piano. The left most note (root note) can not be deselected. Each selected note has an equal chance of being hit. Tune the guitar by setting the R value. The R input has a one octave range, higher values are shifted. That is to say, if R = midi 15 (D#), the quantizer uses midi 3 (D#) as the tonic. Selected notes are then assumed to reference a D# scale. Ex: The picture above shows a major scale. If R is set to midi 69 (A), then notes at the M input will be quantized to an A major scale.
