velocity value. Hold down the Shift key for fine control.

To Unlink Copied Step Sequencer Clips

When you copy step sequencer clips, all copies are linked to each other.

This means that any further edits to any of the clips will be automatically

reflected in all other linked sibling clips.

If you wish to edit one instance of a step sequencer clip without affecting

any other clips, you must first unlink the clip you wish to edit:

1. Right-click the step sequencer clip in the Clips pane to show the Clips

pane context menu.

2. Select Unlink Step Sequencer Clips from the context menu (hover the

mouse over the bottom of the context menu in order to show any

“hidden” commands).

The clip is now unlinked from the other clips.

Tip: If you frequently need to unlink step sequencer clips, assign the

Unlink Step Sequencer Clips to a key binding (see Key Bindings).

To Edit the Drum Map Properties of a Note

1. Double-click the note name of any row to open the Map Properties

dialog.

The Map Properties dialog appears.
