Pad Section
To the right of the step display, you find the pad section that allows you to associate
audio samples with pads. The pad section provides up to 128 pads, organized in
eight groups of 16 pads.
Each pad is mapped to a particular MIDI note (C-2 to G8). If you convert your beat
track into an instrument track, you can trigger the pads via these MIDI notes.
• To assign a sample to a pad, drag it from the MediaBay onto a pad.
• To select a group, click the corresponding group button (labeled 1 to 8) above the
pads.
• To select a pad, click on it.
The waveform of the assigned sample is shown in the sample display to the right
and the pad sound is played.
• To replace the sample mapped to a pad, drag a new sample onto the pad.
Preset Browser
Above the sample display, the loaded VST preset is shown.
• Click in the preset field to open the preset browser where you can choose a
different drum kit.
Sample Display
The sample display shows the waveform of the sample assigned to the pad that is
selected in the pad section.
• Click in the sample display and drag upwards or downwards to zoom the waveform.
• Drag the Start and End flags in the waveform display to define the start and end
points of the sample.
This is useful if you assign a longer (maybe even musical) sample to a pad and you
want to play back only a defined portion of it.
Volume for Selected Pad
Use the Volume slider below the waveform display to change the volume of the pad
that is selected for editing.
Pad Name
The name of the sample is shown in the pad name field below the waveform display.
• To rename a sample, click in the name field, enter a new name, and press [Return].
MG – Assign Selected Pad to Mute Group
With this control, you can assign a pad to one of eight mute groups. Pads within a mute
group never play back simultaneously. With each new note a new pad is triggered.
Panorama for Selected Pad
Use the pan control to change the panorama setting of the selected pad.
