Garth -

This actually works exactly the way I want it to. The way the patch worked
originally was that every zone had all four groups assigned, and every note
event ­ regardless of velocity ­ triggered all four groups for every zone
(the ³Select Range² box is unchecked in every zone). Setting it up the way
you described now allows me to affect precisely the crossfade I was going
for.

THANK YOU ! !
