Hi Hat Mode
In hi hat mode, event definitions can be grouped together. Only one event from each
group can be played at any time position. A typical use is for preventing different hi hat
notes (open, closed, pedal) from being inserted at the same position.
To define a hi hat group, click in any of the lines at the left edge of the name column.
Click here once again to switch hi hat mode off for the line. All lines in a hi hat group
must be vertically adjacent to each other.
If you add an event within a hi hat group, all existing events at this time position are
deleted.
You can create as many hi hat groups as you want in a hyper set, but they must all be
separated by at least one line in which hi hat mode is switched off.
Operation
Grid
The grid defined by the Grid parameter in the Event Definition Parameter box is very
important:
• During selection, all events within a grid section are selected
• When you change the values of existing events, all events within a grid section are
altered, and
• New events are added at the grid positions, in accordance with the value set as the
Delay parameter.
Selection Techniques
You can use any of the usual selection techniques (see “Selection Techniques” on
page 33), with the following differences:
• To select individual events, hold down Shift, as you would when selecting several
events that are scattered across the screen, and;
• When making a rubber band selection, hold down Shift (be careful not to click on
any events).
