2.2 Triggering Sounds
Sounds can be triggered by multiple options individually or at the same
time. Triggering does not initiate the direct sound creation but actually
triggers the modules envelope. Trigger sources include:-
1. Manually triggered by hand by tapping / holding the ADD sensor buttons
for each module.
2. Patching a trigger signal from the clock or input from a modulation
trigger source. Patching with cables or by human physical patching.
Note that the TRIG pin carries the envelope trigger input and also the
loop recorder channel output.
3. Each module can be triggered by it’s loop recorder which can record
and then playback the triggering of sounds.
4. Incoming MIDI signals from external gear can also trigger the sound
generators. MIDI LRN button will map the input to the sound module.
