Condition 1 and 2
: The
Condition
menus provide the following options:
•
Always
:
Always
Sets no condition for when a MIDI note triggers a cell. This is the default
setting.
•
Start on Key
: Activates a cell with a specific key/pad (range) on your keyboard. The two key-
number fields (
Key Min
and
Key Max
) will appear right next to the menu when this option is
selected. Here, you can set the specific key range that will trigger the cell by incoming MIDI
notes. For example, if cell A1 is triggered by MIDI note C1 (which you assign with the
Key
Range
controls of the Quick Access area; refer to
), and the Start On Key
condition is set to C2/C2, then pressing C2 on your keyboard will activate the cell, that is,
you will hear it playing upon pressing C1 on your keyboard. Press C2 again, and the cell will
no longer be triggered by the C1 key.
•
Start on Controller
: Allows cells to be triggered depending on the position of a MIDI
controller, for example, on the position of the mod wheel. Choose the controller number of
the controller you want to use for activating a cell (
CC
), then set the
Min
and the
Max
values
in between of which the condition will be fulfilled.
•
Cycle Round Robin
: Allows you to cycle through various cells using only one key on your
keyboard. It's good to start with an example: select multiple cells and press the Learn
button (the MIDI symbol button) in the Quick Access area (refer to
);
then hit a key twice on your MIDI keyboard. You have just assigned all selected cells to be
triggered by that one MIDI note; now, back in the
Setup
page, set the cell activation to
Cycle
Round Robin
. You can now assign a
Position
in the cycle to each of the selected cells. For
example, let's say you've assigned cells A1 through A6 to be triggered by MIDI note C1, and
you have then assigned cells A1 through A6 to the
Position
numbers
1
to
6
in the cycle; the
cells will then play successively when you hit MIDI note C1 on your controller repeatedly.
Once you are familiar with this, it can turn out to be a very frequently used feature.
Position
sets the cell's position in the cycle;
Cycle Nr.
is used to set up further cycles that run
simultaneously to the first one;
Reset CC
is used to assign a MIDI note to reset the relevant
cycle to position 1.
•
Cycle Random
: This works the same way the
Cycle Round Robin
function does, only you
cannot influence the order of the cells being played.
13.4. Articulation
Use
Articulation
to add articulation presets to your performance. It is important to note that each
articulation can sound different on different instruments. Also, since many of them alter velocity,
be sure to check the
Velocity To Volume
modulation settings in the
Velocity
module on the
Main
page (refer to
).
The
Articulation
module contains the following settings and options:
