Global Menu Parameters - Moog Sub 37 User Manual

If more than one page of parameters exists, continuing to press the button will take you through
the additional parameters and pages. If the MENU WRAP parameter (GLOBAL MENU) is OFF, the
button will stop working at the last parameter of the last page.
SUB MENU PARAMETERS
Some parameter types have multiple sub parameters, which are indicated by ">>". If you have one of
these menu titles highlighted, you can jump to the sub menu by pressing the CURSOR button. To exit a
sub menu highlight the "(BACK)<<" parameter and press the CURSOR button. This will take you back
to the previous menu.

GLOBAL MENU PARAMETERS

TUNING SCALES (GLOBAL MENU 1.1)
The Sub 37 can store up to 31 custom 1-octave tuning scales in its memory. Scale number 0 (default)
is a 12 tone equal tempered tuning. You can create and load custom scales using the Phatty Tuner
application for Mac or Windows, available as a free download from Moogmusic.com.
Highlight TUNING SCALE >> and press the CURSOR button to enter the TUNING SCALES sub menu.
Now you can use the FINE TUNE knob to select a scale number. You can also change tuning scale via
MIDI, using RPN [Registered Parameter Number*] MSB 0, LSB 3. After setting RPN #3, send Data Entry
(CC #39) value 0 -31 to select the corresponding numbered scale, or send CC #96 [Increment] or CC #97
[Decrement] to select the next/previous scale. RPN MSB is set using CC #101, RPN LSB is set using CC # 100.
The Sub 37 also supports the MIDI tuning standards for Single-Note Tuning Change and Bulk Tuning
Dump (full 128-note tunings), in addition to the Scale/Octave format. The Sub 37 holds a single 128-
note tuning table in its active memory, which is not saved on power-down.
Additional documentation about MIDI SINGLE NOTE TUNING CHANGE can be found here:
http://www.midi.org/techspecs/midituning.php
You can also use computer software called Scala to send thousands of pre-made full tuning tables to
the Sub 37: http://www.huygens-fokker.org/scala/
VARIANCE (GLOBAL MENU 1.2)
This parameter allows you to add a small random tuning offset to each note. The offset is updated at
each note-on event. Oscillators 1 and 2 are offset symmetrically; if Oscillator 1 is offset 3.1 cents sharp,
Oscillator 2 will be 3.1 cents flat. The VARIANCE parameter sets the maximum amount of detuning,
using increments of 0.1 cents.
KB PRIORITY (GLOBAL MENU 1.3)
Because the Sub 37 is monophonic (unless in DUO MODE), it will play only one note at a time. By
default, it plays a note in response to the most recent key you pressed, regardless of its position. This
is called last-note priority. You can change this behavior so that it will play either the lowest or the
highest note when you press more than one key. The choices are LOW (low-note priority), HIGH (high-
note priority), LAST (last-note priority) and PRST (as dictated by each preset's specification in the
PRESET EDIT menu). When the DUO MODE button is illuminated, oscillator two will follow the low key,
high key, or no keys, as indicated by the LO and HI LEDs in the oscillator section.
NOTE: Any selection other than PRST will override ALL per-preset KB PRIORITY settings.
