(Re)Trigger GenericSource when selected in Multi Grid

Question

Hiya All

 

I have several sounds built from GenericSources in a MultiGrid. They are long audio files loaded into RAM. I am activating them in the Multi Grid via program changes. Currently the first time a sound is activated it plays from the behginning of the file. When another sound on the same track is then activated and I jump back and activate the previous sound, the original sounds playback position continues from where it previously was. This is simialr to having Legato mode active when triggereing audio clips in Ableton Live's Session View. Does anyone know how a sound using GenericSources could be triggered from the front of the file each time is is activated in a Multi Grid? i.e. their trigger is reactivated so they play from the beginning of the source file as apposed to continuing in legato mode from the last position played in the file.

 

Many thanks in advance for your wisedom!

Answer 1

If you put

!IsActive

into the Trigger field of the GenericSource, it will retrigger the sample from the beginning each time you activate it in the Multigrid.
