This might be specific to the original version of the Make Noise René sequencer, but programmed quantization settings do not persist after the module is powered off. It’s not a huge deal to program the desired scale back onto the module, but I will be honest I sometimes blank on the interval sequence of most musical scales besides major and minor. Now that I’m more familiar with Figma I finally put together a cheatsheet PDF of music scales to quickly program them into the René, which I have taped on the back of my modular case. Each scale is represented by which knobs that need to be lit in the sequencer grid for easy programming. The expectation is that your root note is set by the module that is receiving the quantized voltages.

I’ve been meaning to make this for a long time and I figured other people would find this useful. There are two versions: the standard version has various music scales pre-written with some bonus blank scales at the bottom. I have also made a fully blank cheatsheet for folks that want more custom scales or need to remember specific settings for songs. I’m also making the Figma file available in case you want to edit it yourself.
