Is there a way to "Page" the Red Selection Box for Launchpad

Post by jim-adams » Tue Oct 11, 2011 8:47 pm

Does anyone know of a way to drop the red selection box by EIGHT lines (scenes) instead of just one line in Session view?
I'm using LaunchPad, launching various loops, etc., and keeping the 8th line empty, so as to silence that column. Fine.
So I have 32 lines (scenes) in groups of eight, with, every eighth scene empty (again, so as to silence on that column only).
I'd like to be be able to "jump down eight" with a single button press on my LaunchPad, so I can quickly jump to another set of loops.

Anyone know how to do that, i.e., 'page the red selection box'? Any suggestions?

thanks much!

Press and hold the "Session" button; now pressing the left/right and up/down buttons will move the box eight slots/tracks at a time. Also, while Session is held, each pad will represent eight tracks/slots, so that you can go directly from 1-8 to 17-24 without banking.
