P10 The Sequence NUMBER SELECT Parameter
This Parameter allows you to select which sequence (either external or card) will be
controlled by the Sequence Command Parameter (see above). You can assign
different Triggers to control various sequences. Using the MIDI Start / Stop or Card
Start / Stop, you can control up to 16 sequences from the Trigger Inputs. You may
also mix and match card sequences with MIDI sequences, thereby integrating an
external sequencer with the internal PCMCIA slot sequencing capabilities of the DM
Pro.
To select which sequence you wish to control from a Trigger, first press [TRIG] then
select the Trigger from which you wish to send the sequence Command by pressing
< TRIGGER >. The currently selected Trigger will flash.
Now underline the parameter section of the display. Turn the Value encoder until
you reach Page 10 of Trigger Mode:

sequence where it was stopped. To begin playback from
the beginning of the sequence, use the MIDI Start
Command.
This Value will cause the currently selected Trigger to
send a MIDI Stop Command to an external sequencer,
which will cause the sequencer to stop playback. Use the
MIDI Continue Command to resume playback from the
point where you stopped the sequence, or use the MIDI
Start Command to begin playback from the beginning of
the sequence.
This Value allows one Trigger to send both MIDI Start
and Stop Commands to an external MIDI sequencer. The
first hit will send a MIDI Start Command, initiating
playback, and the second hit will send a MIDI Stop
Command, halting playback. A third hit will again
initiate playback from the beginning of the sequence. To
resume playback from the point in the song where you
stopped, assign another Trigger to send the MIDI
Continue Command.
This Value will initiate sequence playback from a
PCMCIA card that is plugged into the DM Pro. Note
that all of the "Card" Values do not send messages via
MIDI – they are for local use only. Use the included
Sound Bridge computer application to create custom
sequence cards.
This Value will halt sequence playback from a PCMCIA
card that is plugged into the DM Pro.
This Value allows one Trigger to send both Card Start
and Card Stop Commands. The first hit will initiate card
playback, and the second hit will halt card playback. A
third hit will again initiate playback from the beginning
of the sequence.
