Working with Grouping
About Groups
Grouping has two purposes:
D To allow you to quickly select a number of zones that “belong together.”
For example if you have created a layered sound consisting of piano and strings,
you could put all string samples in one group and all piano samples in one group.
Then you can quickly select all piano samples and make an adjustment to them by
trimming a parameter.
D To group zones that need to share group settings together.
For example, you may want to set a group to legato and monophonic mode and
add some portamento so that you can play a part where you slide between notes.
Note that there is always at least one group, since the zones you create are always
grouped together by default.
Creating a Group
1. Select the zones you want to group together.
The zones don’t have to be contiguous in order to be grouped. Regardless of their
original positions in the samples column, they will all be put together in succes-
sion.
2. Select “Group Selected Zones” from the Edit menu or the NN-XT context
menu.
The zones are grouped.
Moving a Group to another Position in the List
D Click on the group in the Groups column and drag up or down with the
mouse button pressed.
An outline of the group you move is superimposed upon the display to help you
navigate to the desired position.
Dragging a group to a new position.
3. Release the mouse button at the desired position.
The group and all its zones appear at the new position.
Moving a Zone from one Group to another
This is done just as when rearranging samples in the list, as described on the previous
page. The only difference is that you drag the zone from one group to another.
Selecting a Group and/or Zones in a Group
D Clicking on a group in the groups column selects the group and all the
zones in the group.
D Clicking on a zone in the samples column selects the group (and that
zone).
The Group Parameters
There are a few parameters on the front panel that apply specifically to groups. see
page 176 for details.
Selecting these zones and grouping them...
...will create these two groups instead of the original one large group.
