Creating playback playing technique combinations

You can create combinations of playback playing techniques for a single expression map, for example, if the expression map requires a different set of key switches for Staccato + Accent compared to Staccato and Accent individually.

Procedure

  1. Choose Play > Expression Maps to open the Expression Maps dialog.
  2. In the expression maps list, select the expression map to which you want to add new playback playing technique combinations.
  3. Open the Playing Technique Combinations dialog to change the combination for a playback playing technique in one of the following ways:

    • To create a new playback playing technique, click Add Techniques in the Techniques list action bar.

    • To change the combination for an existing playback playing technique, select the playback playing technique and click Edit Technique in the Techniques list action bar.

  4. In the Playing Technique Combinations dialog, select the playback playing techniques you want to combine.

    You can Ctrl/Cmd-click multiple playback playing techniques, but you can also only select a single playback playing technique.

  5. Click OK to save your changes and close the dialog.

    The Playing Technique Combinations dialog closes.

Result

A new playback playing technique combination is created and becomes available in the Techniques list for the selected expression map in the Expression Maps dialog.
