• Release Trigger parameters: Use to determine if zones pointing to this group are
triggered on key down or on key release. This is useful for emulating organ key clicks,
for example, where you may want the organ note triggered on key down, but the organ
click triggered on key release.
• ON/OFF button: Turn on to turn on key release triggers. If turned off, zones in the
group are triggered only on key down.
• Decay button: Turn on to turn on the (Decay) Time field.
• Time field: Use to set the time it takes for the level of a sample (triggered by key
release) to decay.
Note: The Decay button and Time parameters function only when the Release
Trigger parameter is turned on (set to key release).
• Playback parameters: Use these parameters to determine playback behavior for the
group.
• Voices pop-up menu: Use to set the number of voices that the group can play.
• Exclusive pop-up menu: Assign multiple groups to the same Exclusive Class. Groups
in the same class can only be used independently. As soon as one group in the class
is triggered, all other groups in that same class are disabled.
Tip: A practical use of the Playback parameters is to set up a classic hi-hat mode
within a full drum kit that is mapped across the keyboard. For example, you could
assign an open and closed hi-hat sample to an exclusive group and set the Voices
parameter of the group to 1. The most recently triggered of the two hi-hat samples
mutes the other because only one voice is allowed for the group. This mirrors the
real-world behavior of hi-hats. The other sounds of the drum kit can still be played
polyphonically, if samples in zones are assigned to another group.
• Envelope1 and 2 Offsets parameters: Independently offset the envelope parameter
settings for each group. This is useful if you want Envelope1, for example, to uniquely
affect the zones in a specific group—after the initial impact of the envelope on other
played groups. See Sampler envelopes for details on envelope parameters.
• Filter Offsets parameters: Independently offset the Cutoff and Resonance settings for
each group. This can be useful if you want the initial impact of a note to be unfiltered
for one group but not other groups. See Sampler Synth pane for details on filter
parameters.
• Playback Details parameters: Use to define the sample select behavior for the group.
• Sample Select Random Offset field: Set a randomization range offset value for
Sample Select modulation, which you define with the Sample Select Random
parameter in the Synth Details slide-out panel.
