Samples placed in rack are transposed down, any idea why?

Post by BlueCalx » Fri Apr 06, 2018 5:29 pm

So just this past couple of days I've noticed that when I place a sample in to a cell in a drum rack they are automatically transposing down to -11. Really odd. Any idea why this would occur?

Maybe you saved a Drum Rack or Simpler default with that -11 setting?

Check the Defaults folder in your User Library.

When you drag a sample onto a pad in a drum rack what typically happens is that it's placed into the Simpler instrument. The default settings for this are normally consulted via your User Library in Defaults > Dropping Samples > On Drum Rack.

Whatever preset you have saved there probably have the Transp parameter set to -11. Check that first. When you have corrected this you can save as a preset into the same folder replacing the previous preset.

If this is not it we probably need a little more data.
