About Trigger Track

The "Trigger Track" function allows the track [ON] keys
and faders to be used to start and stop playback of
recorded tracks. This is ideal for performance situations in
which you want to switch phrases or patterns in real time,
or when you need to start background music on cue, for
example.
When the Trigger Track function is active pressing a track
channel [ON] key begins playback of the corresponding
track from the beginning of the song to the end of the data
recorded on that track (blank sections in the middle of the
track will be played normally.) The track is played once.

stop playback of all tracks.
