14.3.5 AUDIO ROUTING (PATTERN)
Here you find number of audio routing options that affects the Syntakt on a pattern level. You can also
set the audio routing on a global level. For more information, please see “14.6 AUDIO ROUTING (GLOB­
AL)” on page 78.
USE GLOBAL SETTING uses, when ticked, the global audio routing settings for the active pattern.
ROUTE TO MAIN Use this option to customize which of the 12 tracks + 2 effects (Delay, Reverb) that
sends audio to the MAIN OUT outputs. Use the [TRIG 1–12] keys and the [FLTR], and [AMP] [PARAM­
ETER] keys to activate/deactivate send from each track and effect. Green keys signal send to main.
Red keys signal do not send to main. Note that each track still sends to its TRACK OUTPUTS.
SEND TO FX Use this option to customize which of the 12 tracks + the Delay effect that sends audio
to the effects (Delay, Reverb). Use the [TRIG 1–12] keys and the [FLTR] key to activate/deactivate
send from each track and effect. Green keys signal send to the effects. Red keys signal do not send to
the effects.
•	 Audio from the TRACK OUTPUTS is always without any effects.
•	 Tracks that are routed to not send audio to MAIN OUT still send audio on separate outputs
in Overbridge.
14.3.6 CONTROL ALL CONFIG
Use the [TRIG] keys to select which tracks that you want to be affected by the control all functionality.
MIDI tracks can not be selected. For more information, please see “7.5.3 CONTROL ALL” on page 23.
•	 Control all operations also affects the active track, whether it is selected to be
affected or not.
•	 The control all functionality is not available for the MIDI tracks.
14.3.7 TRACK RELATIONS
The track relation settings define how tracks interact with each other. There are two options: layering
and choking.
Layering makes it possible to trig two or more tracks with the same note from the sequencer or the
keyboard. For example, if you set track 1 to trigger track 2 then every note you play on track 1 also plays
on track 2, effectively playing two presets at the same time. However, the layering will not cascade trigs.

14. SETTINGS MENU
If track 3 is set to be triggered by track 2, and track 2 is set to be triggered by track 1, trigs placed track
1 will not trigger track 3. Tracks that are layered to the active track have filled squares in the parameter
representation on the screen.
Choking is a sound design technique where one track cuts off the sound of one or more other tracks.
First, you select a track that will act as the choking track, then choose which other tracks it should
choke. When the choker track is triggered, the tracks selected to be choked receive a note-off message
and are silenced immediately—their normal envelope release is skipped and replaced with a very short
release.
To set up the track relations, press [TRACK] + [TRIG 1–12]/[FX] to select the active track. Then use the
[TRIG] keys to choose which tracks should be layered with or choked by the active track. Press [UP] and
[DOWN] to change between the layering or choking setup screens.
The active track is shown with a red [TRIG] key. Layered tracks is shown with yellow [TRIG] keys,
Choked tracks are shown with blue [TRIG] keys
14.4 MIDI CONFIG
In this menu, various sub-menus dealing with the MIDI functionality of Syntakt are found.
14.4.1 SYNC
Controls how Syntakt receives and sends MIDI clock and transport commands. Change settings by using
the [LEFT]/[RIGHT] arrow keys or the [YES] key.
CLOCK RECEIVE sets whether or not Syntakt responds to MIDI clock sent from external devices.
CLOCK SEND sets whether or not Syntakt transmits MIDI clock.
