save/load all - saves/loads user samples also?

is it possible with lxr to save loaded samples as part of drum kit - settings - pattern ?

    bump? :)

    I'll look into this - no promises though :) I want to get morph targets loaded with kits first, probably by introducing a separate file with the correct linkages. If this goes well it might be possible to do the same thing here.

    that makes sense :) thanks for tthe answer, i'll build it anyway ;)

    I tried playing around with loading samples last night and I think the current operation is as good as it can be for now, so I'm not going to work on improving this. Samples get hard-coded into nonvolatile memory, so the way it works now, saved kits WILL remember which samples get used, as long as the set of samples you're using (remember, only about 400k) stay the same. Adding a sample import operation on every kit change would slow down kit changes unacceptably, imo.
    It's not a sampler :) but there's a lot more you can do than with a traditional sampler - like FM'ing with those 400k of samples ;)

    im not sure i understand what you mean.. but my LXR is on its way, and ill find out soon enough :) :)

    ok :) enjoy it! I think I misunderstood what you were asking. When samples import, they all load at the same time from the 'samples' folder into a 'list' that you can use instead of an oscillator. For a drum part, you can select a sample from the 'list' (which will look like s1, s2, s3, etc. ), and this selection is retained when you save the kit.

    However, if you import a NEW set of samples, any drum kits that used the previous samples will sound different, because they will be using the same sample number (s1, s2 etc.) but this will refer to a different sample.

    I thought you were asking if the system could check that the sample list was the correct one for that kit, and load the right set of samples. This would be an extremely difficult thing to do, and would break the very quick drumkit load times that the LXR has now.

    oh yes, thanks! that is exactly what i need, it is perfect, a don't need it to be a sampler, just hopping i could have maybe 3 or 4 hihat samples as a little ( actually big ) bonus and your answer is what i was hoping for, juhhu !
