10. THE SEQUENCER
• You can use an external MIDI controller such as a keyboard, to input NOTE, TRIG
VELOCITY, and TRIG LENGTH data in LIVE RECORDING mode. Just play the notes on
the keyboard and the sequencer records them. You can add up to a eight-note chord to
every trig. The first note sets the TRIG VELOCITY value for all notes on the trig. The last
note that is released sets the TRIG LENGTH for all notes on the trig.
If you use an external MIDI controller to record to the Digitone MIDI tracks, the se-
quencer receives data on the auto MIDI channel and records on the active track. For
more information, please see "14.3.3 CHANNELS" on page 62.
