Selecting zones via MIDI
You can also select zones via your MIDI keyboard. By clicking the button marked
“Select zones via MIDI” above the key map display so that it lights up, you en-
able selection via MIDI.
This way, you can select a zone and give it edit focus by pressing a key that lies
within the zone’s key range (see later in this chapter for information about setting
up key ranges).
In this case, this zone can be selected by pressing any key between C2 - C3 on your MIDI
keyboard.
Note also, that selection via MIDI is velocity sensitive. Zones may have specific
velocity ranges. This means that they won’t be played unless the key that trig-
gers the zone is played with a certain velocity. The same rules apply when se-
lecting via MIDI, only zones that meet the velocity criteria will be selected. Read
more about setting up velocity ranges on page 170.
Selecting All Zones in a Group
The concept of zone groups is fully introduced on page 163. For now we will
only describe how to select all samples that belong to the same group:
Moving Edit Focus
Moving Edit Focus
A zone can be given edit focus independently of selection:
D When you click on an unselected zone, it both gets selected and
gets edit focus.
D When you select several zones using [Shift] or [Command]/[Ctrl],
the one you select last always gets edit focus.
D To set edit focus to a zone when several zones are already selected,
click on it without holding down any modifier keys.
This way, you can move edit focus between the selected zones freely with-
out deselecting any of them.
