Play Controls

The play controls on the main dialog provide a quick way of playing scales/patterns.

Plectrum Button:	This button can be used to quickly select plectrum mode.
Play Button:	Click on this button to start playing the selected pattern. The button will stay down until the scale/pattern has finished playing. If you want to stop playing early, then click on the button again.
Loop:	This checkbox serves the same purpose as the 'Loop' option on the Play menu. if this is checked, when a scale/pattern is played, it will keep looping around until this option is unchecked.
Scale/Pattern:	This provides a list of patterns which can be played using the current scale. It includes the basic scale itself, a standard pattern plus all applicable user-defined patterns as defined using the Pattern Builder.
Direction/Scope:	This list provides options for how to play the scale/riff: Ascending (1 octave) Descending (1 octave) Up/Down (1 octave) Ascending (2 octaves) Descending (2 octaves) Up/Down (2 octaves)
