Edit Layers Section

Each pad can trigger up to four samples,
which are assigned in four individual layers.
Each layer has separate parameters for
Sample, Semi, Fine, Level, Pan and
Velocity. Keygroup Programs also have a
Root Note parameter.
Note: For easier recognition, Drum Program
controls are colored in blue while Keygroup
Programs are colored in red.
Click the Sample drop-down menu to select
the sample file for that layer. Remember that
the sample has to be loaded into the Project
Information beforehand. For information on
how to load samples into a Project, please
see General Features > Browsers > File
Browser and General Features > Program
Types earlier in this manual.
Tip: For Drum Programs, you can click and
drag a sample from the File Browser, your
computer's Desktop, or your computer's
Explorer (Windows) or Finder (Mac OS X)
directly onto a pad to load it to Layer 1.
