2. In the Mod Matrix pane, choose a modulation source from the Source pop-up menu,
such as MIDI controller 1, the modulation wheel.
3. In the Mapping pane, click the Group view button at the top right, then set the Key
Range or Velocity Range crossfade (Xfade) parameter to a value that provides the
smoothest transitions between layers. Alternatively, you can choose a value that
abruptly switches between sample layers.
If the Xfade parameters are not shown, Control-click the column header to open a
shortcut menu, where you can choose to view the Key Range and Velocity Range
parameters. If you don’t see the Xfade parameters, scroll horizontally until they are
visible.
4. Adjust the crossfade (Xfade) parameter in multiple groups, as you wish.
5. Play your keyboard and adjust the modulation wheel to crossfade between groups
containing your layered zones.
Use Sampler Zone view
You can choose from three editor views in the Mapping pane: Key Mapping Editor, Group
view, and Zone view. Click the buttons at the top right to switch between these editor
views. The menu bar at the top of the Mapping pane contains elements that are common to
all views. See Mapping pane menu bar.
You can use Zone view to: View and edit all zone parameters, organized in columns, with
related parameters shown in subcolumns. The zones from one or more selected groups can
be shown.
Note: The Group and Zone parameters found in the Key Mapping Editor are a subset
(duplicates) of the parameters found in Zone view. A change to a parameter value in one
editor view will be reflected in the other views.
