* Note: To accomodate the extended frequency range of a 5 string bass, each loop may be adjusted 2-1/2 steps below
the original key. For Example: Loop in key of E has a range of
B, C, C, D, D#, E, F, F#, G, G#, A, A#, B, C, C#, D, D#
. All
onboard MIDI loops were developed utilizing the full range of a 4 string bass. Lowering the key below 2-1/2 steps may
result in bass notes that are below the range of a 5 string bass.
Enharmonic Equivalents: Due to the B-DEC™ 30’s limited display capabilities, all keys are written without specific
reference to major or minor, and all accidentals are represented with sharps only. For example, Bb is represented as
A# although in common music theory, Bb would be the preferred choice.
