Mod Wheel Back: snares ON
Mod Wheel Forward: snares OFF
A note about dissimilar regions
As a side note, look at the Regio n Window and notice that t he Kick regions are now d rawn with diagonal
hatching when a Snare region is se lected, and vice versa. e hatching indicates regions whose structure is
dierent from the current focus region (in this case, the dierence is that the Snare regions have a Mod
Wheel dimension, w hile the Kick r egions do not).
e Editor warns you about dissimilar regions because in most cases, they cannot b e included when you
perform a multiple-selection edit. To see what we mean, t ry the following exercise:
• In the Region Window, click on the Right Snare region (F3) t o make it the orange focus region.
• Holding down the AL T key, drag the m ouse across all fo ur regions to s elect them. e F3 region
remains the focus region.
• In the Velocity Window, drag the mouse to select all four velocity splits.
• In the Mod Wheel dimensio n window, select only the upper (“snares o ”) split.
• Change an articulation parameter, such as Release Time.
e result is that the new Release Time will be applied to all of the velocity splits (because you selected them
all in the Velocity dimension), but only to the Snares O versions ( because only the Snares O split is
selected in the Mod Wheel dimension). Furthermore, the new release time will be applied to both of the
Snare regions (E2 a nd F2), because t hey are both sel ected in the R egion Window. However, the edit cannot
be applied to the Kick regions (C2 and D2). Why not? Beca use we specied that the edit should apply only
to the upper half of the Mod Wheel split, and the Kick regions don’t have Mod Wheel splits. In the face of
this conundrum, the Editor paints the problematic regions with hatch marks, and leaves them unchanged.
• ere are three sets of Tom samples: High , Mid and Floor.
• ey are ster eo with four velo cities.
• ere are Snare On and Snare O samples. With t he Snare On samples, the snare drum buzz is
heard when the toms are hit.
