Oldie but a goodie…
Simple Scale mode for chromatic pad playing.
I don’t need a lot of options but sometimes having at least a full octave on those pads when bangin out melodic stuff would be great.
Just the simple major/minor scales would be a game changer for me.
E: After thinking on this some more, I realized it might get weird with 7 note scales and 12 pads. I made a mockup of my solution for this.
I am fully aware this is a pipe dream but this is Feature Requests, damn it. We are all just dreamin here.
I think a simple major/minor option alone would mean the world. You can work out modes and most alternate scales easily enough with some theory. I don’t even think a root key selection is needed as you can just tune the sample or machine accordingly.
The aim of this is for quicker on the fly playing, not to have every scale option in the world.
4 pads could be dedicated to quickly switching through octaves. The arrow keys that used to do this could switch between major and minor. Ideally this could be menu option, leaving the original Chromatic mode available.
