As before, you can jump to this special screen from almost any page (with the exception

better handling of cases where a given note is assigned to multiple samples (layer-
ing). On Version 1, it was not possible to predict which of these samples the note
would select for editing. On Version 2, the note will select the relevant samples
sequentially. It is also possible to choose whether the feature works with respect to
"upper" objects only (freestanding samples, and sample banks), or "lower" objects
only (samples only, ignoring all sample banks).
Specifically, the MIDI
lower (where Version 1 offered only off and on). The off setting disables the feature, as
on Version 1. The upper setting targets freestanding samples and sample banks only,
while the lower setting will target samples only (and will ignore sample banks). Ex-
amples are as follows.
Assume that you select upper; and that note C3 is set to produce sound from Sam-
ple A, Sample B, and Sample Bank C; and that Sample Bank C contains Samples X
and Y. In this case, successive input of note C3 will change the selection as follows:
Sample A
Now assume that you select lower, and the setup is the same as above. In this case,
successive input of note C3 will change the selection as follows:
Sample A
