The way this works in Resolume is you would need to organize all your content in decks of 4 columns and 4 layers.

BTW, that's only 15 videos ;)

There are currently two ways to do this.

1. Map a 4x4 grid, and then switch between as many decks as you want. Using the Application Midi Map, *deck focus*, you can use the same midi notes to trigger clips in each deck. This limits you to 16 clips per deck, but works most intuitively with your controller's physical layout.

2. Map a 4x12 grid. Then use Application Midi Map, *layer focus*, to map the first four buttons to switch between active layers. Then use the remaining twelve buttons to trigger clips in the active layer. For more info on the difference between layer and deck focus, you can check the manual: http://resolume.com/manual/en/r4/contro ... rd_control

This gives you 48 clips per deck, but uses a different layout than what your controller uses.

Moving a clip grid around (like for instance Ableton Live handles this), is unfortunately not possible in Resolume.
