Hi Luca, thank you for your video was so useful! Can you please answer for one sort of question i have. If i drop bass in simpler or sampler and if i go higher or lower with the notes i play it changes it length. How to set up correctly so sample will have same velocity and length all the way along all octaves?

@fusionistaaaa 4 ай бұрын

Thanks for the video. For the drums samples, eg high hat, would you rather have each sound on a track instead of using the simpler within the drum rack? Why?

@xavierlafolie2856 Жыл бұрын

Is there a knob to move a slice from left to right around the sample once you set the slice lenght? I would like to know how to do that and map it to a knob on my controller.

Great video! but I'm super confused about how the midi patterns were put in before he dragged a sample on? I've tried a few ways but can't work it out? I tried assigning an 808 kit and writing in the notes, then deleting the kit, then dragging the sample onto the track like he did. But my sample sounds nothing like it should? Love to see how he set up the midi patters before he started dragging on samples!

Used to fear it - now I simple more than fighting to get songs to loop; SO MANY new ideas (melodies/drums, patterns). Great for "vocal stabs" too ("Yeah", "Uhuh" "REMIX" etc)

@Tekmatic 2 жыл бұрын

If you're putting "REMIX" samples in your track, you're doing it wrong. "R-R-R-REMIX!". Lame.

Good info, clearly and concisely explained 👍 Without wishing to sound smug, this is could be alternatively entitled "Generation Z discovers the sampler" 😊 All of the functions mentioned were why we spent weeks staring into the little blue screens of the Akai samplers in the 1990's and why they were such a game changer when released.

What if it gets the warping wrong? Does simpler have an option to change the bpm of the sampler without exporting it and putting it back in?

Literally how do I do something as simple as play the sample that I've got in the Simpler window at the bottom so i can listen to what it sounds like and the changes I'm making? There is no Play button for it.

How do you save changes you've made to a sample in simpler? Like moving a start point on a sample? Save only saves a simpler preset .adv file. I want to save the adjusted sample to a thumb drive and load it onto my other gigging computer -- but when I load up the .adv file it says sample is offline. If I drop the original sample in the sampler preset, the adjusted start point is gone. Annoying af. I've done hours of work adjusting the start point of these shaker one shots I have to make them sound tight... but I can't save/load them into another computer that way?

@valentinacrespo 11 ай бұрын

Hey, so this is what I struggled with for so long. I figured out a way to basically do this. Have your sample created in simpler. Then, add a separate audio track. At the top of the output channel for the audio track, where it says Ext. In, click on that and press “resampling”. Then, press “In”. Now, solo out the sample you created in simpler , while having the record button on your new audio track. Press record and voila, you have a new audio track with your sample that you can save with all your edits.

@crazygamer241 Жыл бұрын

What about if you add a sample to a clip and it comes with a pop up window asking if you want harmony, melody or drums? When I do this, I get the midi notes in a clip but nothing is playing.

@airfixx_8952 Жыл бұрын

Sounds like you're trying to drag audio into a midi-clip 'bay' which will launch the convert to midi function. Drag the to the bottom panel (like in this vid) instead.

How tf do you tell Simpler what BPM a sample is, if it is incorrectly detected? So that warp will work. It can’t be true that I have to use an audio track.
