Convert audio regions to sampler instruments
You can convert audio regions to sampler instruments with the Convert Regions to New Sampler
Track function (default key command: Control-E). All selected regions are sequentially mapped—
in accordance with their timeline positions—to the specied key range, starting with the
lowest note.
A new track is also created, with automatically created trigger notes for the converted audio
regions. These trigger notes match the time positions of the source audio regions. You can
reposition or edit the trigger notes in the Piano Roll editor. You can also change zone parameters
in the EXS24 mkII Instrument Editor. See EXS24 mkII Instrument Editor overview.
