TL Drum Rehab # of Zones
The # of Zones pop-up menu lets you select the
number of Velocity Zones into which you can
load samples. Use multiple Zones to load sam-
ples of different dynamics, but use only as many
Velocity Zones as necessary to layer dynamically
differentiated samples for play back at varying
velocities. For example, using four Zones, you
can load in, from left (quiet) to right (loud), a p
snare sample, an mf snare sample, a f snare sam-
ple, and an ff snare sample. During playback,
each Zone is triggered only by the correspond-
ing amplitude of the detected transient so that a
soft hit on the original snare track triggers the p
snare sample and a loud snare hit triggers the f
or ff snare sample.
TL Drum Rehab lets you have up to 16 Velocity
Zones, and up to 4 Clips (samples) per Zone. Us-
ing slightly different sounds on multiple Clips
per Zone adds a greater degree of realism by
adding variety to the sound (see “Clips” on
page 444).
TL Drum Rehab Velocity Map
and Velocity Zones
The Velocity Map, below the Waveform display,
graphically represents playback amplitude of
the track audio against the specified Velocity
Zones. TL Drum Rehab translates the detected
amplitudes to MIDI velocity for sample play-
back. When the detected amplitude of trigger is
in the range of a particular Velocity Zone, the
sample loaded into that Zone is played back
(triggered).
When using only one or a just a few Velocity
Zones, you may want to use the Dynamics
control to affect the playback velocity by the
detected amplitude on the original drum
track. The Dynamics slider controls the am-
plitude (velocity) of the triggered sample
relative to the original detected amplitude.
When a more natural sounding drum track
is desired, using multiple Velocity Zones
more closely models the sound of acoustic
drums at different dynamic levels. For more
information on the Dynamics control, see
“Playback Controls” on page 439.
