Vixen Programming in Realtime

Ok folks, gotta question and hope someone has a good answer.

Im running Vixen to control three RC-4's and one FC-4. This project is for a pneumatic powered band. So in a nutshell, Ive got a wav file loaded and I need to program the tracks for each movement.

Is there a way to do this in real time? For instance, be able to "hit record" on a channel and tap out the pattern I need in time to the music? I suspect to do this I would need the resolution set kinda high so its got plenty of free space to put things and all.

But is there  a way to do this? Programing 10 songs with 12 channels each is going to take about 9 years at this rate.

Alex!

Ok, so after stepping away from it a bit, I figured it out.

For those that dont know or may need to know in the future....

If you click a cell in the track at any point, you can from that point on hit the space bar in real time to add your data.

Easy breezy.

This feature is nice, no external dongle to program, etc...

Alex!
