Creating a new patch
To create a patch of your own (or modify an existing patch), you use the following basic steps:
1. Click the folder button for a drum sound channel.
The Redrum sample browser opens.
2. Locate and load a drum sample.
You will find a large number of drum samples in the Factory Sound Bank (in the folder Redrum Drum Kits/xclusive
drums-sorted). You can also load other samples in any supported format.
D Alternatively, drag a sample file from the Browser and drop on the desired sound channel section.
The sound channel is dimmed in blue and a Sample Replace symbol appears in the center.
3. Make the desired settings for the drum sound channel.
The parameters are described in “Redrum parameters”.
4. Repeat steps 1 and 3 for the other drum sound channels.
5. When you’re satisfied with the drum kit, you can save the patch by clicking the Floppy Disk button in the patch
section on the device panel.
Note however, that you don’t necessarily need to save the patch - all settings are included when you save the
song.
Loading REX file slices
Loading slices from within a REX file is done much in the same way as loading “regular” samples:
1. Open the Browser as described above.
2. Browse to a REX file.
Possible extensions are “.rx2”, “.rex” and “.rcy”.
3. Unfold the REX file.
The browser will now display a list of all the separate slices within the REX file.
4. Select the desired slice and click the Load button in the Browser.
The slice is loaded into the Redrum.
D Alternatively, drag a REX slice file from the Browser and drop on the desired sound channel section.
The sound channel is dimmed in blue and a Sample Replace symbol appears in the center.
Creating an empty patch
To “initialize” the settings in the Redrum, select “Reset Device” from the Edit menu or the device context menu. This
removes all samples for all drum sound channels, and sets all parameters to their default values.
