what's good y'all?

I'm new to the SP. I just got mine in the mail on wednesday. I've got sampling down. I've been able to record a pattern and everything. I'm starting to learn the unit.

The other night I programmed a drum pattern on the SP. I wanted different MFX effects on different drum samples in Bank A. Once I did that, I played back the pattern I created. I noticed that when I tried to add an effect to another drum sample, the effect that was on the previous drum I tweaked disappears and I only have an effect on the actual drum that I'm working with at that time.

Please let me know if this is confusing, i'm trying to get this to work in my favor. What is it that I'm doing wrong?

Hi
You can't have different effects on at the same time. There is only one effect. You are able to select what that effect does, but it can only do one thing at a time. To get each sample effected differently, you need to re-sample using the required effect type (in other words, re-recording it with the effect applied permanently), perhaps choosing to leave one effect for live tweaking.
However, note that you can apply the currently chosen effect to any or all samples without re-sampling, with the obvious limitation that it can still only be the one effect type.
Check the manual, it isn't such a bad one - most of the stuff you need to know is in there apart from more advanced tricks that can be found in this forums posts.

I appreciate your insight. I understand now. I'll see to it that I study the manual as much as I can before I ask another question on the forums.


Thanks.
