User Defined Scales Issue
GibbousHominid
USAPosts: 27
I am having trouble defining a scale. I am pretty sure I am performing the operation correctly as described in the manual, but the deluge refuses to accept the notes I set. It keeps guessing wrong by adding notes I did not select. I don't want it to guess, when I'm explicitly programming the scale.
Example: try to program a blues scale
Am I missing a step or is this a bug?

You can alter notes manually on the audition pads by holding one, then holding and turning the select knob - you can change them up or down a semi-tone

Using the scale alter function I am still unable to produce a scale with fewer than seven notes.
Using the define scale function, depending on the root, the deluge will add a note or two when programming a blues scale. There shouldn't be any guessing by the software if I'm defining the root and the scale.
Oh right, thats a known issue actually, my bad. Theres a request here on the forum to change that!

Thanks. I searched earlier, but didn't find it. Tried again after your comment and there it was. Upvoted and hoping.

What does the request ask for exactly Gibbous? I dont get a scale with less than 7 notes. All “other” scales seem to consist of 8 (9 too?) notes. The manual just says “usually 7 notes” and “sometimes more”.
I also like feature suggestion, would also allow to set up a blues scale http://forums.synthstrom.com/discussion/109/condensed-vertical-note-view-toggle/p1
