Pick up machines conundrum

[GovernorSilver]

@""tasmansea""

am I right assuming once I hit stop that my loops are only available via the track trig(s)?

Not in my experience. If you had the sequencer running when you hit Stop, when you hit Play, any loops you had playing on any Pickup Machine track will resume playing, without you having to add a trig to the Pickup Machine track.

“10.Set pedal 3 so it transmits MIDI note 71, an B note. This will sync the sequencer to the active Pickup machine and make the sequencer start playing once the synced loop starts over again.”

How could I do this without a pedal?

By default, the sequencer will sync to the Master Pickup Machine if you had the Pickup Machine already looping before you start the sequencer. No pedal required. If you don’t want the sync, then you have to change a config setting (I forget exactly which, and where).
