8 <h1>same_region()</h1>
9 <p>
10 The key range (or note range if you will) of instruments is assigned to
11 one or more keyboard regions. So each "region" is responsible for
12 mapping audio samples and synthesis parameters for a certain key range.
13 This function takes two keys on the keyboard (as MIDI note number) as
14 arguments and checks the region relationship of the two keys, that is if the two
15 keys have a region mapped each, and if yes how the relationship of those two
16 regions exactly is. So the result value of this function depends on the
17 precise regions layout of the currently loaded instrument.

29 <th>Argument Name</th> <th>Data Type</th> <th>Description</th>
30 </tr>
31 <tr>
32 <td><code>??key1??</code></td>
33 <td>Integer Number</td>
34 <td>Note number of 1st key to be checked.<br>
35 [required]</td>

46 <table>
47 <tr>
48 <th>Description</th> <th>Data Type</th>
49 </tr>
50 <tr>
51 <td>Relationship of the two keys:<br>
52 <code>0</code>: Both keys have a region, however they are two different
53 regions, which also and don't overlap each other.<br>
54 <code>1</code>: Both keys have a region and it is exactly the same region.<br>
55 <code>2</code>: Both keys have a region, which are two different regions, and which are overlapping each other though.<br>
56 <code>3</code>: <code>??key1??</code> has a region, <code>??key2??</code> does not have any region.<br>
57 <code>4</code>: <code>??key1??</code> does not have any region, <code>??key2??</code> has a region.<br>
58 <code>5</code>: <code>??key1??</code> and <code>??key2??</code> both don't have any region.
59 </td>
60 <td>Integer Number</td>
61 </tr>
62 </table>

64 <note>
65 The GigaStudio/Gigasampler format currently does not officially allow
66 overlapping regions. So the designated return value <code>2</code> is
67 reserved for such a potential future feature.

76 <note class="important">
77 This function is currently only available for the GigaStudio/Gigasampler
78 format engine.
79 Furthermore this function exists only with NKSP, it is not available with KSP.
