How to assign more than 12 sounds to a bank?

Post by dafamily »

Hey guys,

I was wondering if there is a way to assign more than 12 sounds to each bank, whenever I try to add more than 12 sounds it just goes to another bank automatically?

For example I want gun shots on 1 bank and dj scratches on another, etc.

Thanks for the help.

Simple:

1) Realise that there can only be one... sample per pad.
2) Done :mrgreen:

here's a weird workaround that may or may not help:

sample yr gunshot and yr scratch sound to a single pad as one long sample. use the 'mark' button to grab whichever sound you want for any given track.

for example, imagine these [ ] as the 'marked' area. try:

"[gunshot] scratch" or "gunshot [scratch]" for different songs. you'd have to switch them back and forth as needed.

honestly, yr better bet? put them on dif pads. lol.

If you need access to more than 12 samples without having to switch banks, then you can use an external midi trigger device. Some PAD controllers have 16 pads. A midi keyboard will have upwards of 37 keys....
