Best,
s.
Sampler is a new sampling instrument that brings powerful multisample playback and profound new sound design capabilities to Ableton Live. Sampler includes the important features you would expect from a sampling instrument, such as multisample library import of today's popular sample formats. Sampler also goes deep in the sound design department, bringing powerful sample manipulation and brilliant synthesis capabilities, all with the intuitive usability familiar to Live users. Enter the sample with Sampler.

This whole Live version 6 has taken us all by surprise...
Nearly all of the features everyone has requested have been ignored in favor of video support (WTF?) and a sampler, which Live already is and have been redundant once already with Simpler...
These guys have jumped the shark...
Pretty box though...

Simpler is unchanged from Live5. It has been made vastly more useful with the new instrument racks, though.
Sampler has:
* Built in multisampling capabilities. You can load several samples and make key groups, so a certain range will only trigger a specific sample. Keymaps can overlap, so as to layer samples.
* An FM/AM oscillator with the Operator waveforms to make mad sounds.
* A couple of LFOs with flexible modulation, like loop start/loop length, etc.
* A morphing filter, which can move beween lp, bp, hp, and notch characteristics at the twist of a knob (and sounds well de la wicked).
Amongst other things.
It also imports a number of standard sample library formats.

Suit #1: I mean, have you got any insight as to why a bright boy like this would jeopardize the lives of millions?
Suit #2: No, sir, he says he does this sort of thing for fun.

what's different?
let's see... Sampler can import libraries in all these formats:
AKAI S1000,
AKAI S3000,
GigaStudio,
EXS,
SoundFont
(non-encrypted) Kontakt.
i've still been waiting for NI to make Kontakt a UB, and you know what... i'm not even go back to it once they do. my Kontakt and Giga libraries are loading just fine in Sampler.

Sampler is a new product; there's nothing to upgrade from.rbro wrote:Am I correct in assuming there will be no upgrade price for sampler? In other words Live 5 registered users will need to pay the same price for Sampler as a new Live user?
