Is there a fix? Internal drag and drop to 3rd part samplers?

Post by Renan » Wed Apr 30, 2008 4:25 am

I've tested both ShortCircuit (Freeware) sampler and Morgana (demo) (which is an old school based sampler with it's own color and character, amazing software!)

But i can't drag and drop files from Ableton's File Browser into them and they both support direct host drag and drop. I was also talking via e-mail to one of the developers of Morgana and he said he would contact the Ableton team to check this.

What follows are his own words "As for drag&drop in Live, I just looked into this and it appears that Live doesn't use regular drag&drop handling. In fact, Morgana doesn't even receive any notification from Live that a drag is in progress."

Does anyone here can drag and drop samples directly into any 3rd part freeware or comercial samplers out there or is there a restriction in Ableton about this? Surely any of Ableton's instrumentos works ok with this, but what if i want to use comercial samplers out there that feature host drag and drop ? I'm not able to do it in Ableton, is that it?

P.S: i'm able to drag and drop from any folder in my computer directly to Morgana in Ableton, but the problem remains in Ableton itself. I can't drag and drop files from the File Browser into it, but from outside Ableton works ok.

thanks! :D
