14.5 Arranger View - Advanced

Arranger view is a powerful persona and view within Deluge. Understanding the basics is important to get started. More advanced functions also exist to integrate tightly with session view and align common functions such as song and clip playback.

Opening clips in arranger directly from session view

  1. Select session view Song, button is lit solid blue.
  2. Press & hold Pad, the clip row to drag to arranger + press Song.
  3. The view will switch to arranger.
  4. While still holding the Pad in arranger view, turn Turn HorizontalHorizontal to locate the position to a column across the instrument row.
  5. Release Pad to drop the clip instance in the arranger grid.

Opening clips in session view directly from arranger

  1. Select arranger view Song, Song. Button flashes blue.

  3. The view will switch to session view.
  4. While still holding the Pad in session view, turn Turn VerticalVertical to locate the position within the clip rows.
  5. Release Pad to drop the clip into the song grid row position.
