How do I set up MegaTrig in HALion?

It is basically a way of assigning different sample layers within the same instrument, which will only play under the conditions that you specify. You access the MegaTrig options by clicking the "MegaTrig" botton at the top of the "Modulation" section. The Condition fields 1 to 3 can be set to MIDI controllers 0-120, KeyboardRange, Key Switch or Second Strike.

To specify a triggering condition for a particular sample, proceed as follows:

1. Edit select one or more samples or a sub-folder containing samples in the Program List. Make sure that the All/Select button is set correctly (i.e. to “All” when you want to select all samples in a program, and to “Select” when you want to select one or more
particular samples).

2. Click in the Condition 1 field at the top to open a pop-up menu. From this menu, you can select either a MIDI controller (0-120), a Keyboard Range, Key Switch or Second Strike. Using the Min and Max Range sliders next to the selection field, you can set a range for the condition.

3. In the “Play if” section next to the Controller sections, you can combine your settings using AND/OR/AND NOT operators to define conditions for sample triggering.
