Big request - hot swapping slicing presets

Post by Vance » Tue Apr 21, 2009 11:03 am

When you slice audio to MIDI, you can select from a range of presets, but you are forever locked in to that slicing preset unless you re-slice the same audio file and choose a different preset the next time around.

It would be great to be able to hot-swap slicing presets in Drum Racks, just like you can hot swap presets for every other instrument... Ideally, hot swapping would change the 8 "rack" knobs (and their corresponding mappings) whilst leaving the individual "slices" untouched.

This would be great - it would allow you to slice the once, and then swap between different presets to experiment & see what craziness different presets & mappings allow, all without having to laboriously and superfluously re-slice the same audio repeatedly, or having to manually map plugin parameters for every single slice in a rack, every single time you want to try a different configuration.
