ARRANGING IN THE SEQUENCER195
Unmuting clips
Muted clips can be unmuted as follows:
D Click on muted clips with the Mute Tool.
D Select muted clips with the Arrow Tool and select “Unmute Clips” from the Edit menu or context menu - or
press [M].
! Muted clips cannot be joined with other clips.
! Muted note clips will not be included when using the “Merge Note Lanes on Tracks” function described in the
“Merging clips on note lanes” section.
Merging clips on note lanes
Several note lanes on a track can be merged into a single note lane:
1. Select the track with the note lanes you wish to merge.
A selected instrument track with separate note lanes.
2. Select “Merge Note Lanes on Tracks” from the Edit menu or from the context menu.
The clips on all note lanes will be merged on the topmost note lane.
The same instrument track after merging.
• If there are time gaps between the clips on the lanes, several clips will be created on the merged note lane.
• Muted note lanes or muted clips on the track will not be included in the merge.
• It’s also possible to select several tracks and merge the note lanes on each individual track, all in one go.
Bounce in Place
The Bounce in Place function lets you bounce the sound generated from playing back note or audio clips, with any in-
sert effects and channel strip coloration - but without Send FX and Master Section settings - to a new audio clip on
a new audio track. The Bounce in Place function is mainly intended for creative audio work, for example:
• creating audio clips out of note clips, that you could then manipulate the slices in - or cut up.
• creating audio clips out of note (or audio) clips - with the sound from any effects included.
• creating audio clips out of note clips that you could then reverse (see “Reversing clips”).
This is great for reverberated drum hits or vocals etc. that you could then play backwards for interesting effects.
• for creating audio clips that you could use as samples in any sample player device (see “Bounce Clip(s) to New
Sample(s)”) or as REX loops in the Dr Octo Rex (see “Bounce Clip to REX Loop”).
q If you want to bounce entire tracks to audio, use the Bounce Mixer Channels function instead. See “Bouncing
Mixer Channels”.
! Note that if you bounce audio clips that are in mono, the bounced clip will be in stereo because the bounce is
post-pan on the channel strip. Thus, if a mono channel is panned left or right, the two channels will not be iden-
tical. Also, even though the audio clip is in mono, there may be insert fx turning the channel to stereo.
