Millisecond Forums

Hello,
I am new to Inquisit and I am stuck at this point: I sample my stimuli randomly from two item groups (50%/50%). Each stimulus from the treatment group corresponds to one stimulus from the control group with the same number (e.g. "t1.wav" – "k1.wav"). Currently after a stimulus from one group is selected, the corresponding one in the other group might get selected too. How do I prevent that?

(e.g. I don’t want item "t6.wav" to be selected after "k6.wav" has already been presented to the participant and vice versa)

Thank you very much for your help!
Christian
