Hello. I have to trigger a sequence in my setup from a key. (I don't have the time to press play etc... wink ) When I trigger it, I use the command play/stop. When I hit the key again, the sequence naturally stops. Is there a way to configure it so it won't stop? Let's say I have to trigger the song from C4. When I press it the first time, the song gets triggered. If I press it again, it stops. What can I do if I want the song to continue?

Try triggering it from an extra footswitch instead, or a different key that you don't plan on using again during that song.

Sorry, not possible. I wonder how some of the stock setups use this triggering feature though.

I thought in the arrange page, you could set up different latching techniques? If I remember correctly, its pretty damn easy.

It in the arrange page, I know that much...past that, I'd have to look it up -- and you can do the same wink

Thanks Clif, I'll check it out once I get home!

I think the latch function only determines whether you want the song to stop once you release the key, or to continue after the release.

Let's say I play C, D, E, C, D, E, etc.
I want to trigger the song when I press C. Then, after playing E I start again from C. Normally, the song would start over. I want it to continue to the end. Get it?

Please help! :confused:

OK - this is the way to do it.

First you need to create a new blank song. Once this is done, press edit and then arrange and then add an arrangement step. Assign this step to the song that you want to trigger.

Assign your desired key to LoKey and HiKey, turn vel tracking off and turn the latch on.

Add more steps to trigger additional sequence steps to taste.

You will also need to set trigger Chan on the arrange page to a channel used in your setup. Usually Channel 1.

Save your arrangement song.

Next go to the Common Page in the setup and assign. Assign the setup to the arrange sequence you created above. Set Zone 1 to the same channel specified as the trigger channel above and ensure that the zone range covers the keys required to trigger the sequence. If you don't want a note to sound, assign the program to 0 (zero) and it won't make a sound when you hit the key, but it will trigger the sequence.

Enjoy

Thanks Puppeteer, but this is exactly how I did it before. The result is the same, the song starts over when I hit C again. Surely there must be a way out of this? No, there's not. And don't call me Shirley.

Why can't you trigger it from your current footswitch. Instead of changing to next sound, assign it to trigger the song...?

Hi,

There are a lot of magic tricks that you can do with triggering sequences.
One is triggering steps in a song and another is triggering different sampled groves by assigning a one bar sequnce with one note to the lowest key in the goove keymap and then triggering different grooves by using the transpose function on the step page.

But what I always do is setting the TriggerCtrl to PWeel in the song, then will triggering C only occur when I simultainusly also move the PWeel up.

One little trick someone on this forum gave me was to assign a Zone Mute to Mono pressure. That way once you hit the key (with a little force) the trigger layer is muted, and then you won't trigger the song any more.

Another way is to move the song end point and ensure that the song is latched. Make the song end point 8000:1:1 (or something similar) and then the sequence will keep playing (but only silence) and as it's latched, the C won't retrigger the sequence.

Hope this solves it for you.
