I can't totally agree on this one.
Just try to import multiple samples into Kontakt. When using properly named
samples, setting up a quick patch is just amazingly fast using the EXS.
Neither Kontakt or HALion do it that fast.
Also, I never found the handles to easy to grab.
But of course you're right, the EXS editor could very well need a more or
less major improvement.
My top wishes would be:
- Editing of multiple zones (not only for checkboxes).
- Drag and drop of samples from explorer/finder.
- Graphical editing of zones - or let me better say, editing straight on the
zone. IMO the EXS editor doesn't have to change visually, but one should be
able to drag zone borders horizontally and eventually set their velo ranges
by Option/Ctrl dragging up and down.
- No need to save a patch each time you need an instrument for one song
only. I often load, say, a vocal or whatever track into the EXS and the need
to create subfolders and do the "save as" game is simply driving me mad.
There's no other softsampler on the market doing it that complicated.
