Saving Sampler/Simpler presets WITH samples included

Post by aekorps » Mon Jul 27, 2009 2:48 pm

Is there a way to save samples that go with a Simpler/Sampler preset?

I'm having an issue where I've moved samples around on my hard drive and when I re-open a preset and it can't find the sample, the in/out/loop points get reset. So restoring the sample by finding it and dropping it back on the Sampler/Simpler doesn't restore the preset as it was saved. Not sure if this is a bug or not.

If there's already a thread on this I apologize, wasn't able to find it.

Thanks

you can create a project folder,

save the preset there,

and collect its samples into the folder.

but you would not want to do that with every preset you made, obviously

try managing the location of the presets which are broken, and fixing the sample references in the management pane (instead of having the preset open in the device view and replacing samples in that context)

btw, the project folder thing would most likely be for a situation where you wanted to share a preset with another user, and wanted to make sure they would not have any missing samples when they loaded it
