Indicator Dots

When a MIDI file has been imported or dragged into the GROOVE LOCK field, the Indicator Dots (a series of small yellow dots) will appear directly below the steps. These dots serve a dual purpose. They confirm that GROOVE LOCK has received MIDI data and provide a visual reference for the feel of the MIDI content. Changing the CLOCK value will change the resolution of the yellow dots.

NOTE: The GROOVE LOCK feature uses the timing and note values of the MIDI content, not the melodic value. This means that Trilian locks to the feel or groove of the clip, not to the musical pattern itself. This applies to polyphonic MIDI files as well.
