Step 3: If you like, you can change the color of your Blocks.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h6>\n\u2022 Right-click on a Block and select [color settings].<\/p>\n
![\"ADX2_IM_07\"](\"http:\/\/blog.criware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/ADX2_IM_07.png\")
<\/p>\n
Step 4: Add your music!<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h6>\n\u2022 Create a Track per instrument or per type of music loop.<\/p>\n
![\"ADX2_IM_08\"](\"http:\/\/blog.criware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/ADX2_IM_08.png\")
<\/p>\n
\u2022 Simply drop the loops on the right tracks in the appropriate Blocks.<\/p>\n
![\"ADX2_IM_09\"](\"http:\/\/blog.criware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/ADX2_IM_09.png\")
<\/p>\n
Step 5: Define the Block’s behavior.<\/strong><\/span><\/h6>\n\u2022 Double-click on a Block to open the properties pane.<\/p>\n
![\"ADX2_IM_10\"](\"http:\/\/blog.criware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/ADX2_IM_10.png\")
<\/p>\n
Here we can rename the Block or change its duration.<\/p>\n
![\"ADX2_IM_11\"](\"http:\/\/blog.criware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/ADX2_IM_11.png\")
<\/p>\n
The Block destination corresponds to where the playback jumps when the Block has finished playing or has reached a transition point.<\/p>\n
![\"ADX2_IM_12\"](\"http:\/\/blog.criware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/ADX2_IM_12.png\")
<\/p>\n
There are 3 types of transitions available:
\n\u2022 The first one is [None]. It will stop the playback at the end of the block.
\n\u2022\u00a0The 2nd one is [Next Block]. The Block will transition to the next block.
\n\u2022\u00a0The 3rd one is [Block Destination]. The Block will transition to a block from a list of our choice.<\/p>\n
If you select 3rd option, the [Block Destination Setting] window will appear.<\/p>\n
![\"ADX2_IM_13\"](\"http:\/\/blog.criware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/ADX2_IM_13.png\")
<\/p>\n
Here we can add or remove destination Blocks and choose among 4 types of transitions.<\/p>\n
For instance, if we choose [Sequential] and select a new Block as destination, the current Block will transition to the selected Block at the end of the playback.<\/p>\n
If we chose [Random] and insert all the available Blocks, it will transition to a random Block at the end of the playback.<\/p>\n
Let’s go back to the Block properties pane.
\nAs seen below,\u00a0we can define the number of times the Block should loop before transitioning. Enter either -1 for an infinite loop or the number of loops to perform.<\/p>\n
![\"ADX2_IM_14\"](\"http:\/\/blog.criware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/ADX2_IM_14.png\")
<\/p>\n
The [Block number of divisions] parameter divides the Block in intervals at which transitions can occur.<\/p>\n
![\"ADX2_IM_15\"](\"http:\/\/blog.criware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/ADX2_IM_15.png\")
<\/p>\n
For instance, if we have a 4-bar music loop, set the division number to 4 and select [Division] for the [Block transition timing], the Block will wait until the 1st beat of the next bar before transitioning to the destination Block.<\/p>\n
![\"ADX2_IM_16\"](\"http:\/\/blog.criware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/ADX2_IM_16.png\")
<\/p>\n
Step 6: Add transitioning Tracks.<\/strong><\/span><\/h6>\nIt is possible to play a specific Track when transitioning (like an additional jingle).<\/p>\n
\u2022 To do that, create a Track and add a transition segment at the end of a Block.<\/p>\n
![\"ADX2_IM_17\"](\"http:\/\/blog.criware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/ADX2_IM_17.png\")
<\/p>\n
\u2022 Right-click on the Track and in the context menu, select the [Block Transition Playback Type] and choose [Playback Transition].<\/p>\n
![\"ADX2_IM_18\"](\"http:\/\/blog.criware.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/ADX2_IM_18.png\")
<\/p>\n
The Track now appears differently to indicate that it will only be playing during transitions.<\/p>\n
