The Velocity Map displays the current velocity
(amplitude) on playback. The Velocity Zones are
depicted as colored bars in the Velocity Map.
The different colors from left to right (quiet to
loud) indicate the velocity range: darker colors
represent lower velocity ranges (for example,
1–32) and brighter represent higher velocity
ranges (for example, 95–127). Velocity Zones
trigger samples within the amplitude range of
the Minimum and Maximum Threshold settings
(see “TL Drum Rehab Minimum and Maximum
Threshold Controls” on page 439.
Use the Velocity Map to select a Zone for loading
a sample (see “Loading a Sample into a Zone” on
page 438) and also to adjust the crossfade be-
tween Zones (see “Adjusting the Crossfade Be-
tween Zones” on page 439). Using multiple Ve-
locity Zones lets you layer samples by dynamics
for more realistic drum sample playback. Use
the left-most Zone for the quietest (pianissimo)
samples, use the right-most for the loudest (for-
tissimo). Up to four samples (Clips) can be
added to each Zone, to give playback a more hu-
man and natural quality. (For more information
on using multiple clips per Zone, see “Clips” on
page 444).
Loading a Sample into a Zone
To load a sample into a Zone:
1 Click the Zone in the Velocity Map where you
want to load a sample. The selected Zone is indi-
cated by a white triangle.
2 In the Library browser (located to right of the
Main window), navigate to the audio file you
want to load (a WAV, AIF, or SD2 file, not a DRP
file).
3 Double-click the audio file (WAV, AIF, or SD2)
you want to load into the selected Zone.
In most simple TL Drum Rehab applications,
you may only need to load a single sample into a
single Zone. However, for nuanced and dynamic
sounds, you can use up to 16 Zones for dynami-
cally layered samples.
DRP files cannot be loaded into a Zone. DRP
files contain multiple sample with fixed
Zone and Clip assignments. Once you load
samples into Zones and Clips, you can save
them all together as a DRP file.
For a workflow example of loading samples
into Zones, see “Loading Samples and Sav-
ing Custom DRP Files in TL Drum Rehab”
on page 448.
