167 Launching Clips
Creating a Group With the Two Clips.
3. Set up Follow Actions for the first clip. You will want to make Follow Action Time equal to
the clip’s length. Set the Follow Action A chooser to “Next,“ with a Chance setting of 1,
leaving Follow Action B alone. Now this clip is set up to advance to the looping clip after it
plays.
4. Activate the Loop switch for the second clip.
The first clip will now proceed to the second after it has played in its entirety; the second clip will
simply play in a loop until it is stopped.
13.6.2 Creating Cycles
One of the most obvious possibilities that Follow Actions open up is using a group of samples to
form a musical cycle. If we organize several clips as a group and use the “Play Next Clip“ Fol-
low Action with each clip, they will play one after the other ad infinitum, or until we tell them to
stop.
Cycles can be peppered with occasional rearrangements through the addition of other Follow
Actions, such as “Any,“ with smaller relative Chance settings.
13.6.3 Temporarily Looping Clips
There are some interesting applications of Follow Actions when it comes to creating temporary
musical loops.
