Assigning a Sample to a Trigger Zone:
1. Move the cursor to the Trigger Location parameter by pressing the Cursor Up or Cursor Down buttons.
2. Use the Cursor Left or Cursor Right buttons to select the zone of a trigger that you would like to assign the
sample to.
3. Move the cursor to the Sample Location parameter by pressing the Cursor Up or Cursor Down buttons.
4. Use the Cursor Left or Cursor Right buttons to select the location of the sample that you would like to assign
(internal or card).
5. Move the cursor to the Sample Name parameter by pressing the Cursor Up or Cursor Down buttons.
6. Use the Cursor Left or Cursor Right buttons to browse the internal memory or SD card and select the sample
that you would like to assign to this trigger location.
Velocity Layers:
You can load up to 2 samples (referred to as Layers) per trigger input. The 2 Layers are referred to as A and B and
they can only be accessed if you are using samples from a SD card (Loc: Card). You can select a velocity range
setting (shown as Vel: 000-127) for each of these layers, so that each sample will only play when a trigger is struck
with that velocity amount. If multiple layers are set to the same velocity range on a trigger, they will both play at the
same time when the pad is struck.
To assign a sound to one of the layers of a pad:
1. Move the cursor to the Sample Location parameter by pressing the Cursor Up and Cursor Down buttons.
2. Use the Cursor Left or Cursor Right buttons to set the Sample Location to LOC:CARD.
3. Move the cursor to the Layer parameter by pressing the Cursor Up or Cursor Down buttons.
4. Use the Cursor Left or Cursor Right buttons to select the layer that you would like to configure.
5. Move the cursor to the "Vel:" parameter by pressing the Cursor Up or Cursor Down buttons.
6. Use the Cursor Left or Cursor Right buttons to adjust the velocity range to configure when the sample
assigned to this layer should play.
7. Move the cursor to the Sample Name parameter by pressing the Cursor Up or Cursor Down buttons.
8. Use the Cursor Left or Cursor Right buttons to browse the SD card and select the sample that you would like
to assign to this layer.
Sample File Requirements
Please note the following file requirements:
• The samples files must be 16-bit, mono or stereo .WAV files.
• You can use a SD card or SDHC card with a capacity up to 32 GB.
• The .WAV file must be located in the root (main) directory of the card and not in any folders.
We recommend formatting your SD card to a FAT32 file system (if it is not already) and naming your sample
files according to this format. Basically, this means:
• Do not use these characters: " * / \ : < > ? |
• Do not use spaces.
• Limit your file name to 8 characters (excluding the file extension, ".WAV").
• You can assign up to 48 MB worth of samples per kit (the sample library on your SD card can be larger, of
course). Also, please note that a sample's size will be rounded up when loaded (e.g., a 2.1 MB sample on the
SD card will be treated as a 3 MB sample when it is assigned to a pad).
• The max number of files that can be located in the root directory is 512.
• When a .WAV file is selected, it will take a few seconds to load into the memory.
• SampleRack supports mono or stereo .WAV files, with a sample rate of 48K, 44.1K, 32K, 22.05K, and 11.025K.
• When there is no SD card inserted, it is not possible to select the card location.
