928 Chapter 38 Working in the Environment
Using the Touch Tracks Window
You open the Touch Tracks window by double-clicking on a touch tracks object.
This window is similar to the Mapped Instrument window (see “Mapped Instruments”
on page 907)—the input note is selected via the keyboard on the left, and the output
region assignment and parameters are set in the columns of the corresponding row.
A vertical gray line means that the setting is the same as the line above. If you change
a vertical gray line that is above another vertical gray line, the lower one will change to
display its previous value (it will no longer be the same as the line above.)
Region Note Assignment
Dragging a MIDI region or folder into the Environment automatically creates a touch
tracks object. All notes (initially) trigger this region. Middle C plays the region or folder
at its original pitch, and all other notes transpose it—relative to middle C.
In the Input Name column, you can see the input notes, and to the right, in the Region/
Folder column, the names of the assigned regions or folders. On the vertical keyboard
to the left, you can select individual notes or pitch ranges, by dragging across several
keys. If you then drag a MIDI region or folder from the Arrange window, it will only be
assigned to the selected note (or note range).
Group
Groups behave as they do in the Hyper Editor—when you trigger a region, any other
(currently playing) region in the same group will stop.
The Off setting means that the region is not assigned to any group.
