The contents of this options box partially depends on the type of data
in the clip, audio or MIDI. The common settings are:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<dfn>Name</dfn>: the full name of the clip's file, usually visible in its
shortened form.
</li>
<li>
<dfn>Load</dfn>: this button allows loading a clip's file into
the selected trigger slot.
</li>
<li>
<dfn>Color</dfn>: here you can open a color chooser dialog to set
the color of the clip's title inside the trigger slot.
</li>
</ul>
<p>
The only audio-specific setting is <dfn>Gain (dB)</dfn> which adjusts
the output volume of a clip.
</p>
<p>
For MIDI clips, there are several specific options:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
<dfn>Velocity Adj</dfn>: this effectively adjusts the output volume
by increasing the velocity of MIDI notes.
</li>
<li>
<dfn>Send Patches</dfn>: this enables sending a control message
to load a particular patch. This is typically used for external
MIDI gear such a hardware synthesizers.
</li>
<li>
<dfn>MIDI Patches</dfn>: clicking this button will open a dialog
where you can select a patch to send when a MIDI clip is triggered.
</li>
</ul>
