Center Key
This parameter determines the MIDI note that is used as the central position for the
Key Follow function.
Random
You can shuffle the playing order of the slices randomly, by activating the Random
button. To play the slices with their original order, deactivate the Random button.
The overall timing does not vary through this. Only the playing order of the slices is
affected.
• Use the Depth parameter to adjust how much the playing order of the slices is
shuffled. Lower this value to keep the playing order of slices on the main beats.
Raise this value to vary the playing order of slices on the offbeats as well.
• Click the Trigger button to trigger a new shuffle. Note that this changes the pattern
number.
• Use the Pattern option to recall a certain random pattern, by entering its pattern
number in the value field.
Exporting the Loop Sequence
You can export the loop sequence as a MIDI part for your host sequencer.
Proceed as follows:
1. Click the MIDI connector icon (to the right of the Random options) and drag it into
the Project window of your host sequencer application.
This creates a MIDI part at the drop position, on an existing or a new MIDI track.
2. Assign the MIDI track to the corresponding slot in HALion.
Using Variations
By activating Random and by adjusting the Tempo, Tempo Scale, Swing, Gate Scale,
Quantize, Amount, Start, and Length parameters, you can save your settings as up to
eight variations. For further information, see
page 196.
The Loop, Sync, Hold, Trigger Mode, Restart Mode, Key Follow, and Center Key
parameters are not part of the variations.
