back operations are not available.

song.
• When a song is saved with the Trigger Track function active,
the Trigger Track function will still be active and a message
indicating that status will appear when that song is later
recalled.

Using the Trigger Track Function

DC BA
• Since a maximum of 12 tracks can be played back for 24-bit
songs (
→
p. 165), mute cannot be disengaged for tracks 13–
24 and they will remain in the normal track mode.
NOTE
• “_” will be displayed for tracks that are not assigned to a
group, and those tracks will be triggered independently.
• Channel pairs to be used for linked stereo operation should
be assigned as paired channels beforehand (
→
p. 58).
HINT
• The Fader Start function can be turned off for all tracks by
pressing the [F1] key while holding the [SHIFT] key (“–” will be
displayed for all tracks).
• The Trigger Track group A–D settings can be copied to fader
groups (
→
p. 82) by pressing the [F2] key while holding the
[SHIFT] key. This can be useful for linking fader start opera-
tion of multiple trigger tracks.
