Great feature particularly saving up to 6 note custom chords!

[glennharrall]

Hey! Can we get this feature on the SL Mk3??

[fahadha]

yes, wondering the same thing as glenn -- does the SL Mk3 have these features too? if not, can they be added?

[nexgen]

Hey @NovationTV, The SL Mk3 needs this feature added in the next firmware, please :)

[blankcheckguy]

can we please get the new chord modes like Scale Chord and User Chord mode on SL mk3? Literally just bought one last week. The new Arp update is fire, but realistically I would use these Chord modes more frequently during regular use. Is it possible to include in next SL update?

[syntaxerror]

Can we get this feature also an Launchkey Mini MK3?

[mkiswatoo]

I you play a chord on a pad, is there a way to play the keyboard with no 'wrong' note? By example, the notes on the keyboard could be on a pentatonic scale related to the chord played on the pad

[mkiswatoo]

Also, it's strage that no minor chords exist by default on the pads, but rather 6/9s instead.

[AltaMihartescu]

can we adjust the voicing of the chords? on my launchkey 25 V to VII are inverted, not in the root positions and that's creating some confusions in some cases...

[Kofi_Arhin]

Can I transpose the scale chord on the pads?

[seferestudiosguatemala]

Y EL NOVATION IMPULSER TRAE ESA FUNCION??

[Emiraclelyricalspiritual]

I'm late to this, but it seems like scale chord mode only gives you 4 chords and then repeats, am I wrong there? How would I get all 7 chords out of the scale chord mode?

[tcr]

If you add this feature to the sl63 mk3 ill buy one until then ill stick with native kontrol

[IvanLebowski-muwy]

Would be amazing to be able to arpeggiate the user chords from the pads just like you can do with the fixed chord option...

[asch]

I cant get any noises out of scale chord mode when hooked up to my synth. I have the deepmind 12 so polyphony is not the issue. All the functions like fixed chords and the arp work ofc. The pads even are able to generate single notes on drum mode, any tips, please help!

[username]

can you save preset sounds to this keyboard and then play WITHOUT being connected to computer?

[username]

If i program one of the pads to C.... then transpose -1.... will this then play a B on the programmed C pad... or will it remain C?

[bpm-hz]

does the midi output transmit all chord/arp notes when in chord/arp mode, or only the one note being played physically?

[frattuncbas]

What is Mini difference about fixed chord?

[toniwatson]

I’m just confused as to how this is a part of DaddyPhatSnap’s MHA rap playlist 😐
