The Drum Racks thread

[Jayude]

Thought I'd start this one up to get us going.

I've loaded in my first break and done a bit of manual chopping and the first few things have come up.

1. Only 16 pads for now - Would love to be able to lay samples all the way horizontally to be able to nicely rest 8 fingers across the pads on two levels.

2. Adjustable velocity to amplitude we need obvs although the pads do seem very well scaled from literally a finger weight tap up to my normal strike n then I really have to intentionally whack to get the top velocities. Best pads I've used in this regard.

3. Waveform zoom would be good as some low amplitude hi-hats don't show up at all when I'm using shift + sample start encoder to fine edit. I'm getting used to tuning things by ear which is probably the way I should do it anyway but zoom would save time.


That's just a couple of my initial thoughts for now but I thought this thread would be good repository for tips & tricks so feel free to add (:

Ah, this is already there - choose the 'Filter & Setup' bank of encoders, press shift and then touch/adjust encoder 7, it will show 'Velocity > Vol' (normally it shows Velocity > Filter).
