hit the hot swap button on your loaded simpler in the top right corner , then click on simpler in the device menu. It'll give u a blank one.

Try this:
go to the defaults folder in the library
go to instruments/simpler
if there is a preset there, delete it
try to load a simpler and see if it's blank

An even simpler way (no pun intended) is to drag an audio sample directly on to a pad in the drum rack. This will produce the default simpler and you can then right click on the title bar and save as default.

correction: this _might_ produce the default simpler, depending on whether or not you have a special simpler saved in the defaults/dropping samples/on drum rack (or whatever) folder

I have had a good go at locating said "special simpler" but with no joy. Does anyone know where this tricky little devil is hiding?

Humbled.....
Thanks mate, I knew it would be lurking somewhere but assumed searching for files with windows would find an existing default. In the manual as well.......
