Controlling Sample Playback
with Sampler Tracks(Cubase
Elements only)
The sampler track features allow you to chromatically play back any audio from your audio
sample library via MIDI. You can create and edit new sounds based on specific samples, and
integrate them into an existing project.
The sampler track features include:
A sampler track that allows you to control the playback of the audio sample that is loaded
in Sampler Control.
Sampler Control that allows you load and edit audio samples.
Loading Audio Samples into Sampler Control
You can load audio samples into Sampler Control by dragging.
Cubase allows you to load mono or stereo samples in .wav or .aiff file format into Sampler
Control.
To load an audio sample, drag it from the MediaBay, the Project window event display, or
the File Explorer/macOS Finder and drop it in Sampler Control.
IMPORTANT
If Sampler Control already contains an audio sample, this sample and all its settings are
overwritten.
NOTE
Audio samples that you load into Sampler Control are not copied to the project audio
folder. If you want to archive or share your project including all audio samples that you
have loaded into Sampler Control, you must create a self-contained project.
In the Pool, all audio samples that you have loaded into Sampler Control are listed in a
dedicated sampler track subfolder in the main audio folder.
