order as they appear on the chord track. Chord events that have more than
one occurrence are only assigned once.

Allows you to delay the playback of a triggered chord pad to the next defined
musical position. This is useful, if you work with an arpeggiator or with the
Pattern Player.
• Transpose All Pads
Transposes all chord pads by a defined transpose value.
• Lock All Pads
Locks all chord pads for editing.
• Unlock All Pads
Unlocks all chord pads.
• Unassign All Pads
Removes the chord assignment from all pads.
Preparations
Before you can start working with the chord pads, you must add a MIDI or an
instrument track with an instrument loaded, and open the chord pads zone.
PREREQUISITE
You have installed and set up a MIDI keyboard.
PROCEDURE
1. Select Project > Add Track > Instrument.
2. In the Add Instrument Track dialog, select an instrument, and click Add
Track.
An instrument track with the selected instrument loaded is added to your project, and
select a sound that is suited for chords.
3. On the instrument track, click Record Enable.
4. Select Project > Chord Pads to open the Chord Pads Zone at the bottom
of the Project window.
RESULT
You can now click the chord pads or press some of the assigned keys on your MIDI
keyboard to trigger the preassigned chords.
