Moog Labyrinth | Setting Quantization Modes

Quantization

While Labyrinth is a generative synthesizer based on random voltages, it can transform those random patterns into melodies via its quantizer. Labyrinth has a bank of 15 different scales, and by enabling a particular scale each random voltage is mapped to the closest note in that scale. 

To change the quantizer scale, hold down the BIT SHIFT button of SEQ1 and press BIT FLIP; do this while the sequencer is running so that you can hear the difference as you change quantization settings. You will see the 16 LEDs for SEQ1 and SEQ2 light green, and a red LED will indicate the current quantization setting. If you purchased your Labyrinth brand new, your quantizer will be set to the scale of bit number 3 in SEQ1, which indicates a major scale setting. 

NOTE: By holding BIT SHIFT and pressing BIT FLIP you increment to the next quantizer mode, and by holding BIT SHIFT and pressing LENGTH you decrement to the previous quantizer mode.
