Segment Trigger Track

The segment trigger track contains commands that trigger the playback of segments and motifs.

Each trigger in the segment trigger track is a reference to an existing segment or motif. The trigger has its own set of properties that control playback without altering the properties of the original file.

There are two ways to use the segment trigger track to control the performance of multiple segments:

When you enter a trigger in the track, you must select a segment or motif in the Segment/Motif Trigger Properties window. Until you do, the trigger has no effect.

Note   Like any other segment, a triggered segment plays correctly only if its instruments have been downloaded to the synthesizer. Applications are responsible for downloading instrument data.
