Re: [exs] mapping drum samples

2001-06-19 by Thom Jenkins

Hi All,
Something that I like to do sometimes with drumkits is to have 
regular kits for different styles and consistent mapping, but then 
have an EXS Instrument that is just all kick drums and another that 
is all snares. Then in Logic I put every drum sound on its own track, 
with kick and snare on separate channels.  That way I can have the 
sequence running and very quickly scroll through the different kick 
and snare sounds just by hitting the <transpose> parameter for each 
part.  You get to very quickly hear a large variety of sounds 'in 
context' without having to stop and load new samples.  Naturally, 
this will work on other samplers/modules as well, if they're 
multi-timbral.  For certain types of work, I find this very 
productive.  As always, YMMV.
Cheers,
