▪ Choose the Track Type
> Use the Track Type parameter to set the type of the corresponding track.
Track type Meaning
Accompaniment (ACC) When a chord is recognized, the original notes are transposed
to match the recognized chord, according to the selected Note
Transposition Table (NTT).
Bass (BAS) It behaves like the Accompaniment tracks, but playing the chord’s
root (or the bass note of a slashed chord).
Drum/Percussion (DRM) No transposition is applied. The original pattern plays always. This
is useful to avoid a Drum Kit, an SFX or a Sliced Loop to be trans-
posed.
Guitar (GTR) When a chord is recognized, the arranger triggers the original pat-
tern on a ‘virtual guitar’, keeping care of how notes are played on
the guitar fretboard. Please note that a Guitar track may also con-
tain some patterns typical of an Accompaniment track – a useful
addition for short ‘free-form’ passages, like a short lead solo.
▪ Select the Trigger Mode
> Use the Trigger Mode parameter to dene how Bass- and Acc-type tracks are
retriggered when the chord is changed. This also works in the Acc-like zone of a
Guitar track.
Trigger Mode Meaning
Off Each time you play a new chord, current notes will be stopped. The track
will remain silent until a new note will be played by the pattern.
Retrigger (Rt) The sound will be stopped, and new notes matching the recognized
chord will be played back.
Repitch (Rp) Notes already playing will be repitched to match the recognized chord.
There will be no break in the sound. This is very useful on Guitar, Bass,
Strings and Brass tracks.
▪ Choose the Tension
> Select the Tension checkbox to make the accompaniment’s harmony richer
and more interesting, by adding tension.
Tension adds notes (a 9th, 11th and/or 13th) that have actually been recognized in
the played chord, but aren’t written in the Style/Pad pattern (usually programmed
up to the 7th).
