Snippet Group

A Snippet Group bundles a number of Snippets, each of which contains parameters or Phrases for one or more instruments. Only one snippet in a group can play at a time. A group shows up in the first column of the grid as a button with the group's name.

Drop a Phrase Pool on a group to create a snippet for each favorite phrase in the pool.

Drag a snippet group up or down to re-arrange groups on the grid.

Right-click or click and hold on a group to open the options menu.

Types

A group automatically changes its type depending on what is currently included with its slots.

The group is empty and ready to take phrases and parameters that you can drop on any of its slots. Unless Single-Phrase Snippets are enforced, the group will also take containers with phrases for multiple instruments.

The group includes snippets with phrases for a single instrument only. If you want to assign an instrument to a group, simply drop a phrase on an empty slot to create a first snippet. The group will assume the instrument associated with the phrase.

Indicates a Mixed Group that includes snippets with phrases for multiple instruments, or global parameters that affect all instruments.
