D The inverse is also true - i.e. turning the Lo Key knob for several selected
zones will apply the edit focused low key setting to all selected zones.
A low key can never be set higher than one semitone below the high key in a zone,
so if the edit focused zone has a low key above the high key of another zone, the
other zone will be scaled to the minimum semitone range.
By Dragging the Zone Boundary Handles on the Tab Bar
As previously described, the area directly below the keyboard area is called the tab
bar. This shows the key range for the currently selected zone, and also contains
boundary handles.
Dragging a boundary handle on the tab bar.
These handles can be used much to the same effect as when dragging the boundary
handles in the key map display. However, the handles on the tab bar can change the
key range of multiple zones at the same time.
The following applies:
• The tab bar shows the key range for the zone with edit focus.
• Dragging the boundary handles for that zone will also simultaneously change the
key range for a number of surrounding zones if:
D The high key or low key (depending on which handle you drag) of the
other zones are the same as the zone with edit focus.
D The other zones are adjacent to the zone with edit focus.
! Note that it doesn’t matter whether the other zones are selected or not.
They will be affected anyway.
In the example in the picture above, the zone in the middle has edit focus. Its left han-
dle (the low key) is placed differently from any of the other zones, but all of the zones
have the same high key setting. This means that...
• Dragging the left handle will only move the low key position of the zone with edit
focus (the pictures show before and after dragging).
• Dragging the right handle will move the high key position for all of the zones at the
same time, since they all have the same high key position (again, the picture shows
before and after dragging).
