Working With Presets; Pads - M-Audio Trigger Finger Pro User Manual

Working with Presets

A Preset in Trigger Finger Pro is stored in its internal memory. When you save a Preset, you
are saving settings that are specific to the pads, Assignable Controls (knobs, faders, and
buttons), DAW Control buttons, and transport buttons.
This chapter describes how to configure these settings so you can create and edit your own
Presets, which you can save and then load in future sessions.

Pads

Trigger Finger Pro's pads can trigger drum hits or other samples in your software or external
MIDI sound module. The pads are pressure- and velocity-sensitive, which makes them very
responsive and intuitive to play.
About Pad Banks
Press the Pad Bank button to cycle through the four independent banks of pads. The current
pad bank letter (A–D) will appear in the display. If the pads in each bank are colored differently
(which is likely the case), then the pads' colors will change to indicate the pad bank, as well.
Alternatively, you select a pad bank directly (without cycling through all of them) by pressing
and holding the Pad Bank button and then pressing Pad 1, 2, 3, or 4 to select Pad Bank A, B,
C, or D, respectively. The selected pad will be completely lit and its letter will have an asterisk
() next to it in the display (while the Pad Bank button is held down).
