the metal noise sound excellent.

Hi ckluxen

Do you want some samples or is it like a question, as in "can you export samples from massive"? Just trying to clear up the question.

I just wanted the noise from massive into lives sampler, just downloaded the massive demo, so I got it. the metal noise than gets filtered by 24ddb HP and adds something to hihats and rides build with operator,
thanks

Why not resample massive in Ableton?

Any time I want to get some samples out of a vst or Massive, i record the a note in the midi track with the vst, e.g. 16 bar C2 note,

solo the track ->
go to file ->
Export Audio/Video -> be sure to take note of the length (number of bars e.g. 16bars) of the loop/sound
Data -> enter the length of the of the loop/sound
click or and save to a location
now you have a wav file of the sound

Hope this is what you are looking for ...

A much easier way is to right click the MIDI clip, hit 'freeze', then copy the clip to an audio track. Done. You can then right click the audio track and 'show in browser' to rename, move, or whatever, but at that point you can just drag and drop it into sampler from the audio clip. No need to do tedious exporting.

Thanks AceLuby,

I knew about the freeze and flatten, but didnt know about the right click "show in browser" that make it much easier. I hated searching for the file after flattening it, thanks again .... cool I learned something new, thats why i love this forum.

No problem. I sample and resample stuff all the time. A really cool trick for some random bass sounds is to get 5-6 good sounding Massive patches you create, sample them, put them all into a single sampler, then within sampler go to the zone, then velocity, right click and select 'distribute ranges equally'. After that, put the MIDI effect 'Velocity' before it, set it to 100% random and voila! You've just created an instrument that randomly selects one of your massive presets at almost no CPU cost. You can also distribute the ranges over the selector and manually select which sounds you want as well, but I think the random trick is pretty fun.

brilliant .... thanks for that too...
