Can you change the pitch of all the samples in a Sliced to midi drum rack at once? Like you can with a rex file in recycle? I'm trying to achieve a pitch shift on a chopped loop that is slowed down, but it doesn't sound great pitched up in Beats warp mode So it's in rep itch.
Anyone know how to do this when your slicing to a new midi clip. I know the Ski beats slicer works well for that but it's not exactly what I need for this situation.
Thanks!

Re: Transposing the pitch of all samples in Drum Rack at once
Simplest way I know would be to map each slice's Simpler Transpose control to the same Drum Rack Macro.

When you "Slice to MIDI", each "slice" is placed in a Simpler on its own Chain in the Drum Rack.
In the image above you see the Macros (1-8) on the left and the Simpler for each slice on the right (with the Transpose control in the lower right corner in this image). Hit the "Map" button on the left (above the Macros) and map all the slices' Simpler Transpose Controls to one of the Macros.

...couldn't you just put the pitch midi plugin before the rack?...

Re: Transposing the pitch of all samples in Drum Rack at once
It won't work that way in front of a drum rack. The MIDI pitch plugin shifts (transposes) the notes (up and down) that are being sent from the MIDI clip (or external controller/synth) to the drum rack. Each drum pad (chain) is set to play to a different note received at the drum rack's input. So when you change the "pitch" or note sent to the drum rack, it results in playing a different drum pad / chain, not transposing the pitch of the sounds on each pad / chain.scheffkoch wrote:...couldn't you just put the pitch midi plugin before the rack?...
