Playing Back and Recording Chords

You can play back and record chords that are assigned to chord pads using MIDI or instrument tracks.

There are two different Chord Pad Output Modes that determine if chords that are assigned to chord pads can be played back and recorded using any or using exclusive MIDI or instrument tracks:

  • Chord Pad Output Mode: On

    Allows you to play back and record chord pads using any MIDI or instrument track where Record Enable or Monitor is activated.

  • Chord Pad Output Mode: Off

    Allows you to play back and record chord pads using exclusive MIDI or instrument tracks where Record Enable or Monitor is activated, and where Chord Pads is selected as a MIDI input in the Input Routing pop-up menu.

Note

If Record-Enable allows MIDI Thru is deactivated in the Preferences dialog (RecordMIDI page), you must activate Monitor to use the chord pads.
