The RIFF2 Page
Link
The Link parameter allows you to have a riff play only while a key is pressed. Set the Trigger 
and Release ranges, and any key that is pressed and held within this range will play the selected 
riff. Release the key and the riff will stop. Playing any other key in this zone—even if they are 
within the Trigger or Release ranges—will not retrigger or stop the zone’s riff.
Re Channel
Use the Re Channel parameter when the current zone’s MIDI channel and the channel that the 
riff was recorded on are not the same. If you want to use a riff on zone 2/MIDI channel 2 and the 
riff was recorded on track 4/MIDI channel 4, you will need to turn Re Channel on. Note that all 
of the tracks on the sequence will play through the MIDI channel of the current zone.
Transpose/Root Note
With the Transpose parameter set to On, the riff will transpose to the value set in the Root Note 
parameter. So, if you have a riff whose root note is C4, you can set a new root note in the setup so 
that the riff will play in the correct range. In this scenario, if you want to trigger your riff from 
C1 but it was recorded at C4, you would set Transpose to On and Root Note to C1. Your riff will 
now play in the desired range when triggered from the C1 key, which now corresponds to the 
note C4.
Duration
Duration changes the duration of each MIDI note. The percentage is that of the original duration 
of the notes in the sequence.
TickOffset
You can fine tune the start time of your riff by using the TickOffset parameter. A positive value 
will delay the start time, while a negative value will speed up the start time.
Tempo BPM
The are four choices here that will determine what controls the tempo of your riff. With Tempo 
BPM set to Sequence, the original tempo in which the riff was recorded will be used. With 
Tempo BPM set to Setup, the tempo set on the COMMON page will be used. This is useful if 
you want to sync the riff and the arpeggiator. With Tempo BPM set to External, the riff will sync 
to external MIDI clock.
You can also manually choose a tempo by selecting a value from 20 to 400 for Tempo BPM.
SrcTrk
The SrcTrk parameter determines the source track of the riff. Along with the Start and Stop 
parameters, SrcTrk allows you to use a single sequence as a riff for many zones, and to select a 
different source track and Start/Stop parameter setting for each zone to avoid having to create a 
special sequence for each riff.
