With sound grouping the user can pick all matching component sample sets of a recorded instru-
ment at the same time and assign it to an input channel, regardless which component icon is ac-
tive.
How it works:
In the Sound Browser list entry names end with a suffix indicating the type of component sample.
Regarding cymbal samples Suffix and component name are identical and selecting one compo-
nent sample will select all other matching sample sets automatically.
Drums use the feature positional sensing, which detects the position of the stick on the head and
blends samples from the side of the head (rich overtones) with focused samples from the center. To
this end head sounds are further divided into sample sets to be used in conjunction with positional
sensing.
• Center-Side Blend (CS)
and sample sets that only consist of samples from one of the 2 zones:
• Center Only (C)
• Side Only (S)
The choice of one of the latter de facto deactivates positional sensing by returning sounds of the
same zone, no matter which position on the head is detected.
Sound Grouping is designed to quickly pick all relevant samples that create the most realistic digital
footprint of the entire sampled instrument. This means that it requires the CS samples for heads.
Consequently, selecting Rimshot or X-Stick samples with Sound Grouping on will automatically select
the matching CS version of the head samples. Starting with the head on the other hand will require
to select a CS sample set to automatically select the corresponding Rimshot and X-Stick samples in
the entry list of the Sound Browser. When assigning C or S head samples, sound grouping is ignored,
and the chosen sample will only affect the active component.
