How the DM10 module's sequencer refers to MIDI note numbers:
When editing the Accompaniment track of a Sequence, you may notice the "Note" column contains the
names of musical notes – A4, D#5, etc. However, the name of the note shown here may not be the
actual musical note you hear.

actual musical note you hear.
On the Accompaniment tracks, the bass notes are mapped chromatically to MIDI notes A0 to A3. In
other words, when the "Note" column shows a note from A0 to A3, which is the actual note you are
hearing the bass play.

The Accompaniment tracks also contain other (non-bass, non-drum) samples, such as chords, "hits," and
other sounds. These samples are mapped to MIDI notes C#4 and above – but not in chromatic order,
and the collection of samples usually does not contain all chromatic notes.
