Using the Pattern Player

You can play back the pattern of a MIDI loop or a MIDI part with chord pads. This plays back the pattern with the notes that make up the chord.

Procedure

  1. To the left of the chord pads, activate Show/Hide Player Setup.
  2. In the Selected Player Settings section, open the Player Modes pop-up menu, and select Pattern.
  3. Perform one of the following actions:
    • Click Import MIDI Loop to select a MIDI loop that you want to use as a pattern.

    • Drag a MIDI part from the event display and drop it on the Pattern field.

    Note

    The loop or part must have between 3 and 5 voices. In the MediaBay, the number of voices is indicated in the Voices column of the Result list.

    The loop or part is taken as a reference and defines how the chord is played.

  4. In the Velocity from field, select a velocity source for the notes.
