Creating Zones via Drag and Drop
You can also create a new zone (and a new instrument, if none is currently displayed in
the editor) by dragging a file onto one of the keys of the onscreen keyboard. The start
key, end key, and root key are all set to the note that the file was dropped on. This drag
and drop functionality works for audio files from the following sources: Browser, Audio
Bin, and the Finder.
You can also create a new zone (and a new instrument, if none is currently displayed in
the editor) by dragging a file directly in the zone area.
The root key for the zone is the key at which the sample is played at its recorded pitch.
This information is written in the sample header. If there is no root key defined in the
sample header, the C3 key is used by default.
Note: If you drag an audio file onto an existing zone, the file referenced by that zone is
changed to the new (dropped) file. The mouse cursor changes to a replace arrow.
Dragging a single sample into the empty area below Ungrouped Zones creates a
default zone and a default group, with the new default zone placed in the default
group.
You can also load multiple samples in one operation. The Instrument Editor
automatically creates new zones, and places the loaded samples into them.
