THE SEQUENCER

Using Groups

Sometimes it is practical to work with a section of events as one entity. This is

done by Grouping the events. You may for example have a two-bar bass line that

you want to move or repeat in the song - by Grouping the events, you can select,

move and handle the bassline as a single object.

! This applies to the Arrange View only - you can still edit individual

events in a Group in the Edit View.

Appearance and Color

In the Arrange View, Groups appear as colored boxes.

The color of the Groups depends on their contents:

! Groups with the same color contain the same events.

This makes it easy to get an overview of the song, since variations will appear as

Groups in another color.

Creating Groups

There are two main ways to create Groups:

By using the Group command

1. Select the events that you want to Group.

It doesn’t matter which lanes you select - all notes, pattern changes and con-

trollers within the area will be included in the Group.

D If you select events on several tracks, one Group for each track will

be created.

Each Group can only contain events on one track.

2. If you want the Group to have a specific length, activate Snap and

select an appropriate Snap value.

Often it is practical to create Groups that are one or several whole bars long.

3. Select Group from the Edit menu or the sequencer context menu.

Or, hold down [Command] (Mac) or [Ctrl] (Windows) and press [G].

The events are Grouped.

By drawing with the Pencil tool

1. Select the Pencil tool.

You can also select the Pencil tool momentarily by holding down [Com-

mand] (Mac) or [Alt] (Windows).

2. If you want the Group to have a specific length, activate Snap and

select an appropriate Snap value.

Often it is practical to create Groups that are one or several whole bars of

length.

3. Click where you want the Group to start, drag to the right and re-

lease the mouse button.

A Group is created, containing the enclosed Events. It is also possible to

create empty Groups this way.

✪ Groups are also automatically created when you use the “To Track”,

“Copy Pattern to Track” and “Convert Pattern Track to Notes” func-

tions. See page 12.

These Groups are “variations”

- all the others have the same contents.
