Override concert- and set-level key ranges

If a software instrument channel strip exists at the concert level, the concert-level channel strip takes precedence over any patch-level software instrument channel strips within its key range. This means that when you play any notes in the key range of the concert-level channel strip on a keyboard controller, you hear only the concert-level channel strip, even when a patch is selected.

Similarly, if a software instrument channel strip exists at the set level, the same condition applies for all patches in the set. That is, the set-level channel strip takes precedence over any patch-level channel strips within its key range.

You can override concert- or set-level channel strips for a channel strip on an individual patch, so that the patch-level channel strip takes precedence over the concert-level or set-level channel strips.

Override concert- or set-level key ranges

  1. In the Patch List, select the patch with the channel strip that you want to override the concert- or set-level channel strip.

  2. In the Channel Strips area, select the channel strip with the key range that you want to override the concert- or set-level key range.

  3. In the Channel Strip Inspector, select the Layer Editor.

  4. Select the “Override parent ranges” checkbox.

    The “Override parent ranges” checkbox is available only if there is a concert- or set-level channel strip.
