MENU AND DIALOG REFERENCE
378
Parameter Automation
The parameter automation dialog allows you to add or remove automation lanes for
the selected sequencer track.
D The checkboxes to the left determine if a lane is shown or not.
To add a lane, activate its checkbox.
D The Automated column indicates if there is automation data (clips) on
the lane.
If you deactivate the checkbox for an automated parameter, this will delete the au-
tomation data. This is indicated by the automation symbol with the trash can.
D If the “Show Frequently Used Only” checkbox is activated, only the more
common automation parameters are listed.
To see all parameters, deactivate the checkbox.
New Note Lane
Adds a new note lane to the selected track(s). This is the same as clicking the “+
Lanes” button above the track list.
Merge Note Lanes on Tracks
If there is more than one note lane on the selected track, this menu item will merge all
note clips on all lanes into a single lane.
D If there are several clips containing the same performance controllers
(e.g. mod wheel) on the same positions in the song, only the perfor-
mance controller data from the topmost lane will be kept.
This is the same rule as during playback - performance control data in the topmost
lane has priority.
Get Groove From Clip
This requires that a single note clip is selected. The function will look at the notes in
the clip and extract a groove from these. You can apply this groove to other note lanes
or save it as a groove patch for later use.
1. Create or record a rhythmic note “pattern” of some kind.
You may for example record a drum pattern, or use the notes playing the slices in
a REX loop.
✪ For the groove to be useful in most common music styles, it’s recom-
mended that the note clip is an exact number of bars in length - prefera-
bly 1, 2, 4 or maybe 8 bars.
2. Open the ReGroove Mixer from the transport panel and select a channel for
editing (by clicking its Edit button).
This is where your custom groove will end up - choose an unused channel if you
don’t specifically want to replace a groove.
3. With the note clip selected, select “Get Groove From Clip” from the Edt menu
or sequencer context menu.
The groove is assigned to the ReGroove Mixer channel as “User”. By selecting
that ReGroove Mixer channel for other note lanes, you can make the music fit with
your custom groove.
4. Select the Groove tab in the Tool window.
Here you can adjust how the groove should affect note timing, velocity and length
and also save the groove as a ReGroove Patch (including the settings of the slid-
ers in the window).
Read more in the ReGroove Mixer chapter in the Operation Manual.
Join Clips
This requires that more than one clip is selected on the same lane. Join Clips will join
the selected clips together.
! If any of the clips contains masked-out events in the range between the
clips, these events will be deleted. Also, if the clips overlap, any hidden
events are deleted.
Mute Clips / Unmute Clips
If there are one or several unmuted clips selected, this menu item is called “Mute
Clips”. Muted clips (shown without colors and with dimmed borders) will not play
back but can be edited and arranged as usual.
If only muted clips are selected, the menu item is called “Unmute Clips”. The keyboard
shortcut for Mute/Unmute Clips is [M].
