Trig conditions

Conditions decide whether an active step actually fires on a given pattern cycle. Set per-step in the Step Inspector. The full set:

ConditionFires when…
alwaysDefault. Every pattern cycle.
1:NOnly on the 1st of every N cycles. (1:2, 1:3, 1:4, 1:6, 1:8)
K:NOn the Kth of every N cycles (e.g. 2:4, 3:4).
fillOnly while the Fill button is held / latched.
!fillOnly when Fill is OFF — useful for "normal" notes that drop out during fills.
preOnly if the previous trig on this track fired (chain notes).
!preOnly if the previous trig did NOT fire (rescue notes).
TipCombine probability + conditions for layered evolution: a kick that's always-on but a ghost-snare with 2:4 + 60% probability that adds a "sometimes" backbeat on alternating bars.
