At its heart is an expanded quantizer. Beyond chromatic, major, and minor modes, Monoplex allows you to upload your own scales via MIDI SysEx using a browser-based tool. You can choose from thousands of microtonal scales or create and audition your own.<\/p>\n<p>A dedicated MIDI-note capture mode also lets incoming notes define the active scale on the fly.<\/p>\n<p>Compact and immediate, Monoplex delivers an endless supply of melodies and modulations inside your Eurorack system.
