+</p>
+<p>
+ In the center, 37 scales are presented. Scroll through them by
+ either using the cursor/arrow keys to the lower right of the
+ display, or the knobs above the display. The scale will change
+ dynamically as you scroll. You can also scroll in whole pages using
+ the upper right and upper left buttons above the display (they will
+ display "<" and ">" if scrolling is possible).
+</p>
+<p>
+ To change the root note of the scale, press the corresponding button
+ above or below the video display.The button will be lit to indicate
+ your selection (and the text will be highlighted).
+</p>
+<p>
+ By default, Ardour configures the Push 2 pads to use "in-key" mode,
+ where all pads correspond to notes "in" the chosen scale. Notes
+ corresponding to the root note, or the equivalent note in higher
+ octaves, are highlighted with the color of the current target MIDI
+ track.
+</p>
+<p>
+ In
+ "chromatic" mode, the pads correspond to a continuous sequence of
+ notes starting with your selected root note. Pads corresponding to
+ notes in the scale are illuminated; those corresponding to the root
+ note are lit with the color the current target MIDI track. Other
+ pads are left dark, but you can still play them.
+</p>
+<p>
+ To switch between them, press button on the lower left of the video
+ display; the text above it will display the current mode (though it
+ is usually visually self-evident from the pad lighting pattern).
