• Options . Click the Options button to open the Matrix Options dialog. The following

option is available:

• Triggering Empty Cell(s) Mutes Row(s). This option determines how playing cells are

affected when triggering an empty cell in the same row. If Triggering Empty Cell(s) Mutes

Row(s) is disabled (default), triggering an empty cell has no effect on other cells. If Triggering

Empty Cell(s) Mutes Row(s) is selected, triggering an empty cell in a row will force the row to

stop playing. Likewise, triggering a column that contains empty cells will force the

corresponding row to stop playing. This option is disabled by default.

row to a track in your project. All cells in the row are routed through the assigned track.

The Matrix view supports unlimited rows. Rows are created automatically when you drag patterns

into the Matrix view. Each row displays the name of the track it is routed to. Whenever a new row is

Tip:

To play multiple patterns through the same track simultaneously, assign multiple rows to the

same track.
