6.9.2 Loading samples
There are many ways to load a sample in the sampler:
You can drag and drop a sample straight from your MediaView or Explorer onto a sampler pad.
You can also sample directly from a media file that is loaded in your player. Indeed you can send a predefined sample
(entry/exit point) from your track to your sampler in real time (even while playback is active). There are multiple
methods to do so:
create a smart loop using the player loop function. Make sure the loop button is active before using this method.
position the playback to the entry point of your desired sample. Make sure loop is not active. Choose the desired
length in beat units of your sample (BEATLOOP section).
After you choose your method to define the sample length, click on the Send button to send the sample towards the
active sample pad.
