- Scale type - Major, Minor, Pentatonic, Dorian, etc. (10 scales)
- Octave - Where on the keyboard you’re playing
- Interval - The vertical jump between rows (m3, M3, P4, P5)
- MIDI channel - Route each page to a different instrument (0-15)
- Aftertouch mode - Channel pressure or polyphonic
- Velocity curve - Linear, Soft, Hard, or Fixed
