Before you edit a macrosequence you must first select its corresponding block. There's a "Save" button to save any changes you make to the parameters. You can also "mute" a sequence for a specific block. Muting only takes place when playing MIDI data from the program. If you export your work as a MIDI file, all the tracks will be present in the file, including muted tracks.
| Volume: | The volume of the MIDI channel corresponding to the selected block. |
| Probability: | Probability of a block appearing at the next aligned measure. Move the fader fully up and the block will appear every aligned measure. Fully down and it will never appear. |
| Panning: | Move this fader to pan the sequence to the left or right side of the stereo field. |
| Seed: | Different seed values result in different sequences with the same probability and stretching properties. |
The Displacement parameter is used to move the whole macrosequence a number of measures forward in time. Using the displacement along with the alignment, you can force the blocks to start at any measure. For example, suppose you have a 1-measure block you want to use as a fill-in every 8 measures. You would align the block to 8 measures so it doesn't appear in the middle. But if you do that, the block will always appear at the first measure of every 8-measure group. If you displace the sequence 7 measures forward, then you will have the "fill-in" block at the last measure of every 8-measure group.
Note: If the displacement is greater or equal than the song length,
the whole macrosequence for that block will be displaced out of the song.
It is a good idea to set all the displacements to zero until you're ready
to arrange a whole song.
Here is where you determine the probability of stretching the block
in time. It works in a similar way to the Rhythmic Probability Distribution
of a block.
The MIDI section is used to play the song and export it as a MIDI file.
