If a clip is locked, it can't be moved or deleted. To lock a clip, use the Locked checkbox in the right-click menu. In the Clip settings panel you get some more options.
UNLOCK ALL - unlocks every clip in the clip deck.
AUTO-LOCK - when Auto-Lock is on, any clip that is played automatically (either with the timeline or MIDI record/playback system) will be locked. This is useful if you've programmed a show in Logic Pro (or similar) and do not want to accidentally edit the clips used in the show.
LOCKED CLIPS ZONES - if this is on then you can't change the zones for any locked clip
LOCKED CLIPS PARAMS - if this is on then you can't change the parameters (scale, shift etc) for any locked clip.
If you right click on a clip, a menu appears with some of the options for that clip. See Clip editor, Organising your clip deck and Clip groupsfor more about the first few items in this menu.
Clips by default are set to retrigger. This means that no matter when you press it, the clip will start running from that moment. So if you start it late, the clip's animation will be slightly late and out of time.
If you Tap Tempo while a retriggered clip is running, the system will "quantise" the clip to be in time, even if you didn't start it exactly on the beat.
If Retrigger is not enabled, the clip will always be in time - it's as though the clip was started at the very beginning of the clock. It's good for when you are synchronised perfectly with the music via an external clock signal.
Clips are often designed to loop forever but you can design them in such a way that they only run once or a few times around. Make sure to keep those set to retrigger, or they won't restart!
Clips can be set to fade in and out with a duration measured in seconds. By default the fade time will be inherited by its group settings (and can be changed by right clicking on the group button).
If you want a different fade duration from the clip's group, first toggle off the USE GROUP DEFAULT button, then adjust the clip's In time and Out time sliders.
