drum rack default settings?

kolloron · Post by **kolloron** » Thu May 22, 2008 2:46 pm

when adding samples to a drum rack i would like to have a default velocity sensitivity of 70% in the simpler patches.
is this possible?

Build empty simpler with velocity set to 70 %

easy

and then ....

right click - save as default

sorry, but this doesn't work.

it does work when i use simpler as single instrument and then drag a sample into it. but it does neither work when i drag samples into drum racks (nor when i use the components).

could this be a bug of live 7.0.2?

have you made a drumrack with a simpler in it?

that is what you have to save as default, not just a drumrack.

BTW - latest version is 7.07

well, i knew this is possible - but when i now drop samples onto the pads i find them in new simpler instruments with the original 0% velocity sensitivity.

i'd always have to chose the right chain and drop the sample into the simpler there...

no other way i guess...

this is not quite correct. the content of the /Defaults/Dropping Samples/On Drum Rack/

should be just a Simpler, or Sampler, with the desired settings. Not contained in a drum rack.

[1] when dropping a sample or multiple samples on a Drum Rack. Create an empty Sampler or Simpler, set its parameters as you like, and manually drag that device (without sample) to Library/Defaults/Dropping Samples/On Drum Rack

Angstrom's picture post clarifies this, but I thought I would point it out because of the earlier post.

thanks Angstrom, thanks longjohns and thanks jmolenaar

is this info worthy for the little tips and tricks list?

can the macro mapping be saved to the default?
How?
