Would be great if they could somehow extend the Move's Drum Rack to 32 samples and fill up the entire surface of the 4x8 finger pads.
If anything, consolidate tracks 1 and 2 where they split the surface to "left" and "right" so all pads are useable.
Of course, having more than that would be tremendous but if its at least possible to have a 32 touch pads be 32 unique samples, that would be a great start.

I realize it hasnt come out yet but Ive watched all the videos and read the manual. Each drum rack is limited to 16 samples so this is technically a feature request.

You know what they say:
The squeaky wheel gets the grease.

Im limiting things down to what I know is possible (4 drum racks of 16 pads each) with the current way Move is said to function. My idea is to simply consolidate two of those tracks so we have 2 drum racks visible on the "left" and "right" side of the 4x8 grid. If we can get more than this, awesome! But for now, I feel like this request is 100% doable.

Sorry, cant get the image link to work so heres a google drive link

The right part of the pad is used for 16 pitch triggers. And might welcome new functions in the future.

Would be great if those functions were... 16 more samples

how do i up-vote this feature request? 100% would love to have drum racks with 32 samples.

Yep big time would like this too, first thing I listed in the drum tracks thread.

Great idea, that's what I wish for too

It won't happen. Drum Racks on the Move are limited to 16 pads / sounds because each sound can be re-pitched using the 16 Pitches mode, which is using MPE Pitchbend parameter. MPE is based on MIDI channels, of which there are 16, not 32.

In that case I would settle for spreading the 16 pads across the middle two rows plsthx Ableton (: (:
