Multiple lanes/tracks to one destination

Hey!

Can you setup multiple tracks for automation targetting the same destination track (note events)

So you can have a '' Trk1&2'' in 3beat and 4beat lane of various CC and then a' 'Ttk4'' do a 64bar track/lane for volume >> all targetting the same program or plugin on TRK5?

Thx!

I think it is possible if you specify the same program in tracks 1 to 5.

Thank you for the reply..

Can you be so kind to confirm your thoughts

Ok let try this encore..
Say:

Program: vocal break is on track 1 a 4bar with some cc automation..

simple enough

Can I now add track 2-5 all set to the same program with different bar lengths as automaton lanes affaecting Track 1 vocal break..

Like in a multi environment..

Similarly can this be done to a plugin..
So one track holds note events
Other tracks set to the same plugin do automation for that plugin

The application is polymetric cc and long fade /ins /outs ect without haveing to append the note track multiple times

Thx!

On the MPC, tracks cannot have different length. The length is tied to the sequencer. So while you can sort of do what you're asking by having track lengths that are multiples of each other, you're not going to be able to have Track 1 be 4 bars, and Track 2 be 3 bars. The sequencer would need to be set to 4 bars.

That said, you could create Track 1 as 1 bar, then in the sequencer section, duplicate the length to 2 bars or 4 bars. I do this fairly frequently as a way to build up something more complicated than what you started with.

Only if the LENGTH parameter on the TRACK row in MAIN is set to 'Seq'. Change this to however many beats you want and this track length is now independent of the sequence length.

Holy Sh*t!

You can have different lengths within the Sequence! Right There In My Face

Dude, read the Bible..... Lol, joking.

BUT this kinda thing is exactly why I tell people to buy it or read the manual at least. Not only does the person answer their own basic questions but at the same time discover other features that they didn't even know they needed .....
