Keygroup Tracks

When using keygroup tracks, Track Edit Mode lets you edit the parameters for each keygroup.
To select a keygroup, press a pad within that keygroup. Its parameters will appear on the screen immediately.
Alternatively, use the Keygroup field at the top of the screen.
To view a specific tab of parameters, tap the Master, Samples, Pan Velocity, Filter/Env, LFO Modulation, or
Effects button at the bottom of the screen. You can tap the Samples button multiple times to cycle through its three
available tabs.
Number of KG (keygroups) lets you create up to 128 keygroups within a keygroup track. This is useful when working with
multi-samples. For example, if you want to create a realistic piano, you can use different keygroups (e.g., 88 for a grand
piano) with every keygroup containing its own sampled note (with up to four possible velocity layers).
Tap the Keygroup field to select a keygroup to edit. You can also select All to edit all keygroups simultaneously.
Tap the piano-keys icon to edit the note range of the current
keygroup. This will open the Set Keygroup Note Range window. This
lets you restrict the key range used for a sample's playback. Only
notes with a key number higher or equal (Low Key) or lower and equal
(High Key) to the selected value will trigger a sound.
Tips:
Alternatively, you can set the current keygroup's note range by using
the Lo and Hi fields under Note Range in the Master tab.
Set the Lo parameter to A0 and the Hi parameter to C8 to emulate the
range of a standard 88-key piano.
