Hello
Is it possible to have more than the 8 soundbank (A to H) in the A4
I have octa/A4,MD.
Octatrack is master. and the 3 are sync. When i play bankA with octa, A4 play bank A. Ok
But when i play bank I with octa, A4 go back and play bank A (and no bank I)…Why ??? I don’t want it play the same sound than when I play bank bank A with the octatrack… Do you know what i mean?
thanks!
I think you are confusing Soundbanks with Patterns. The OT has twice as many patterns, so if you are using program changes, the other machines start from A when you get further than H, because they dont have the second set.
Yes. But the problem is :
i organize octatrack like that : each bank is one track. So i have 16 different tracks in the sampler (liveset).
But because of program change, when i play the track 7 (bank I in octatrack), i play bank A of A4 (which is normally the sequences and soundkit of track 1). I don’t want play same sequences and soundkit of A4 in the track 1 and 7…
?
Unfortunately, it’s just how it is.
Sorry.
As a possible work around, and I’ve never tried this myself, you could have 2 projects on the a4 and attempt switching in the middle of the set.
good idea, i’ll do that, thank you
I think you might be confusing the bank->part organization of the OT with the A4s kit / pattern scheme. The patterns on the A4 can be associated with any of the 128 kits in the project. Unlike the OT where you can only associate a pattern with one of the parts in the bank.
So are you running out of kits or something? Do you have so many sound locks that the 128 sound pool entries aren’t enough? If not, I can’t see how multiple projects would be needed.
