Chapter 21 EXS24 mkII 315
To create a zone and assign a sample to it:
1 Choose Zone > New Zone (or use the New Zone key command).
A new zone entry appears in the Instrument Editor.
2 Do one of the following:
 Click the arrow in the Audio File column, then choose Load Audio Sample from the
pop-up menu (or you can use the Load Audio Sample key command).
 Double-click the empty area in the audio file column.
3 Browse to, and select the desired audio file in the file selection dialog.
If you activate the “Hide used Audio Files” option, files used in the currently loaded EXS
instrument are dimmed.
4 Use the Play button to preview the audio file:
 Click the Play button to loop playback of the currently selected sample file.
 Clicking the button a second time stops playback.
 You can audition multiple files by pressing Play once, and then stepping through the
files.
The “Preview audio file in EXS instrument” option temporarily replaces the sample files
in the currently selected zone. The zone is not directly triggered by activating this
option, but it can be triggered via MIDI notes while the file selection dialog is open and
different files are being selected. The selected sample can be heard as part of the zone,
inclusive of all synthesizer processing (filters, modulation, and so on).
5 Once you find a sample you’d like to use, click Open to load it.
When loaded, the sample’s name is displayed in the gray field.
