Haven't checked the "Help" window in Conductor yet but I suspect it will not be much "help". I don't know why you would think this. The Conductor Help window is very comprehensive. Having said that I'm not sure if it will do exactly what you want. You want to be able to hit a hot key to invoke an instant drum solo, right? The Conductor works on preset song sections like section A, B, C, etc. They have to be entered into the chord grid as part of the song. Setting the sections is easy as explained in Help but you don't want the drums solo to play regularly as part of the song. You only want it by hitting the key. I'm thinking the way to do this is to put the drum solo as the last 4 bars of the tune and name it as the last song section like section G or whatever. When the drum solo is over you hit the key to jump back to whatever section you were at. BUT, these sections must be preset. If your song is just playing along and you hit the section G drum solo key, fine that will work but you can't simply jump back to where you were unless you jumped right at the beginning of a section. Iow, if you made the initial jump 4 bars in the middle of section C when you jump back to C it will be the beginning of C not in the middle. The other problem with this is you have to remember to stop the song at the last bar before the drum solo at the end of the tune. Otherwise the drum solo will play as the final 4 bars. I just had a thought about the ending. You can also create an ending and have it be it's own section like H or something. As you're playing the song and jumping around just make sure it doesn't go to H until you're ready for the ending then you hit the key for H and hit stop when it's over. You can give yourself some extra time by leaving a bar of silence as the last bar. This means H would be the final bars at the end of the tune, the drum solo would be in front of it. That way the main body of the tune can loop as much as you want by watching as it gets near the drum solo bars you hit the hot key to jump back to section A which is the top of the song. Without having your song in front of me I can't get more specific but I think you can make this work, maybe not exactly what you want but close enough. Have fun The other BobC (my last name starts with C too)
