  • This quick walk through will show how easy it is to add more tracks to the existing 4 track sequencer.
  1. Load the module into the JazzEditor.
  2. Make room for more tracks by extending the Container object.
  3. Copy “track_4” and paste it below.
    1. It will automatically rename itself to prevent naming conflicts
  4. Paste it one more time; there should be a total of six tracks now.
  5. The Multislider object designates the note per track.
    1. Select the Multislider; change the number of sliders from 4 to 6, under Properties.
  6. Under the “Project Browser” click the triangle next to “track_5” Naturally Multisliders start with 0.
    1. In this case, slider 0 changes the pitch of track_1, slider 1 changes the pitch of track_2, and so on.
  7. Select the “pitch” expression and change 3 to 4 in the Script editing tab.
  8. Under the “Project Browser” click the triangle next to “track_5” a. Select “pitch” and change 3 to 5.
  9. Now that the new tracks have note control via Multislider, the new 6 track sequencer is ready.
