Saving a Pattern Alternation rule

Like any iMIDI rule, the Pattern Alternation rule can be saved into a .gig file from the Instrument Editor, linking the rule permanently to the instrument. However, it’s more common to save this rule into an instrument performance (.gsi file) from GigaStudio. This allows you to save custom Pattern Articulation setups for each song you are working on for a particular instrument. When you compose, you can keep your performance files in a special folder for each song you work on.

The Controller Trigger Rule

The Controller Trigger rule allows any MIDI controller to trigger any MIDI note. For continuous controllers, this rule is “velocity sensitive”: the faster you more the controller, the louder the sample plays back.

It’s possible to define multiple triggers with a single instance of this rule.

Controller. Use the Controller list to select any of the available MIDI controllers.

Trigger point. Sets the exact spot in the continuous controller range (0 to 127) where the trigger will occur. For example, you can have the Mod Wheel trigger a note at its halfway point with a value of 64.

Ascending/Descending. Determines whether the controller triggers the MIDI note when it moves upward or downward across the trigger point. You can trigger the note from both directions by defining two triggers.
