Controls Common to Both Triggered Modes

Threshold and Manual Trigger

The threshold knob controls the level at which the input will cause a trigger

event. To turn off audio based triggering (if you’re using MIDI or manual

triggering), set the threshold all the way up.

The button next to the threshold knob is the Manual Trigger button.

Pressing this button will cause a trigger event. Note that the audio must be

below the threshold for a Manual Trigger event to occur.

Trigger Filter Tweak

The incoming audio is passed through a filter before it hits the level

detector. Pressing the tweak button in one of these modes will open up the

Trigger Filter Tweak Panel, which gives you control over this filter. You can

change the cutoff frequency, gain, and type of filter. You can choose from a

high pass filter (HPF), low pass filter (LPF), or turn the filter off altogether.

Sometimes it is useful to “hear” what is going into the level detector so that

you can use the trigger filter to carve out some specific part of the track to

trigger pan transitions. You can flip the “Monitor” switch to hear the output

of the trigger filter. The red LED next to the switch will light up when you

are monitoring the trigger filter. The monitor switch will automatically turn
