triggering clip in different layer

Hello, 

I have an art installation tomorrow and am looking for advice on my resolume composition. Here is my setup...

- 2 layers
- 10 clips each
- all clips are between 15-30 seconds
- both layers are on autoplay random 
- all clips are full resolution with different blend modes which creates a video collage 

I would like to have certain clips to play without a second clip at the same time. My idea was to trigger a certain blank clip with the clip I would like to play solo that both match on play time. 

Example...

- Layer 1, Clip 10, 15 seconds, I would like to play this solo without any clip from layer 2. 
- I create a new blank clip, Layer 2, Clip 11, 15 seconds
- Create a trigger from layer 1 clip 10 to layer 2 clip 11. 
- They are both the same time so once they finish, it goes back to random 

I dont see how this is possible now because trigger clip only works on the same layer.

Is there another solution for this?

Thank you in advance.

Layer 2 clips, if they are not transparent, will hide layer 1 content.
Try moving the Layer2 opacty fader to 100% and playing something.
