Note: This requires twice as much RAM for 16-bit samples and a third more RAM for
24-bit samples.
• Search samples on pop-up menu: Determines the locations that Sampler searches for
instrument samples. Choose one of the following:
• Local Volumes: Sampler searches storage media attached to or installed in the
computer for samples.
• External Volumes: Sampler searches storage media accessible over a network for
samples.
• All Volumes: Sampler searches both internal and network media for samples.
Note: Choosing External Volumes or All Volumes may increase the time it takes
Sampler to find and load sampler instruments and files.
• Read root key from pop-up menu: Sets the method Sampler and Quick Sampler use to
determine the root key of audio files when loaded using Optimized mode. Choose one of
the following menu options:
• File/Analysis: Sampler and Quick Sampler first attempt to read the root key from
the header of the AIFF, WAV, or CAF file when loading the sample into a zone. If no
root key information exists in the header, then the audio samples are analyzed to
determine the root key from the longest note detected. If no pitch is detected, C3 is
automatically assigned to the zone as the root key.
• Filename/Analysis: Sampler and Quick Sampler first attempt to read the root key
from the filename when loading the sample into a zone. If the filename does not
contain that information, then the audio samples are analyzed to determined the root
key from the longest note detected. If this doesn’t provide useful results, Sampler
uses C3 as the default root key in the zone.
• Filename only: Sampler and Quick Sampler attempt to read the root key from the
filename only when loading the sample into a zone. If no root key information can be
read from the filename, C3 is automatically assigned to the zone as the root key.
• File only: Sampler and Quick Sampler read from the AIFF, WAV, or CAF file header
only in an attempt to detect the root key when loading the sample into a zone. If no
root key information can be read from the file header, C3 is automatically assigned
to the zone as the root key.
• Analysis only: Sampler and Quick Sampler analyze the audio samples in an attempt
to determine the root key from the longest note detected when loading the sample
into a zone. If no pitch is detected, C3 is automatically assigned to the zone as the
root key.
• Root Key at File Name Position pop-up menu: Determine how Sampler derives the root
key from the audio file header. Choose one of the following:
• Auto: Provides a smart analysis of numbers and keys from the filename. Sampler can
recognize a number in the filename regardless of its format—60 and 060 are both
valid. Other valid numbers range between 21 and 127. Numerical values outside of
these are generally just version numbers. A key number is also a valid possibility for
this use—C3, C 3, C_3, A-1, #C3, or C#3, for example. The possible range is C-2 up
to G8.
