I have been practicing getting the hang of using parts and banks to build sets, i.e. Bank 1 is Song A with it’s respective parts, Bank 2 is Song B with it’s respective parts, etc.
When I switch finish Song A and go to start Song B in Bank 2, all my machines, samples, parts settings auto-populate in Bank 2. So far I have been going through and manually resetting each machine’s page and clearing the sample. It’s fucking tedious.
There has to be a way to clear EVERYTHING so I am starting with a fresh slate, right? Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the response. When I do that all the page settings clear, so that is helpful although the samples still are loaded on their respective track.
I suppose that isn’t a big deal to replace them, but kind of strange it leaves them rather than completely starting fresh with a blank sample slot?
It seems that once a sample is loaded there is no turning back the blank (indicated by the tilda symbol) state? Seems I can only clear that slot which would completely remove that sample from the pool.
Sorry, I messed up in explaining. It doesn’t remove it from the audio pool. It removes it from the respective machine’s sample slot list, which is shared by the entire project. Thus if I do [clear slot] in sample editor>file it will delete it from the pool thus deleting it from other banks that might use that sound. This just happened to me, so that kinda sucks.
Am I overlooking something? If not, seems kinda a silly omission to not be able to fully clear parts. Mostly just annoying more than anything but oh well.

Your terminology is wack
The “pool” would be considered the Audio Pool. [Clear Slot] doesn’t delete the physical file, despite what it says, it just clears the slot.
A Project has a fixed “Sample List” of 256 sample Slots (128 Flex and 128 Static).
All 16 Banks are part of the Project, and all acess the Sample List, as there is only that one list for the Project. So if you have a sample in Flex001 and you reference that in Bank01 and Bank16, then if you clear that slot, then every default/trig/lock that was referencing Flex001 is now looking at an empty slot.
Gotcha, yep terminology is currently wack, working on it as I tame this beastly machine. But we are saying the same thing.
Basically, if you use [clear slot], it’s cleared off the sample list of the project, then your other banks that may reference that same slot are screwed.
So effectively, it seems there is no way to clear the sample from a part to start 100% fresh. I found another thread basically saying the same thing. Kinda silly IMO but whatever. Just something to remember when I start filling up banks with various different songs.
It seems if I am diligent about saving sample settings, even if I fuck up and clear a slot that unknowingly is used in another bank, I should be able to reload the sample and it will have retained any info like trim, slices, etc, right?
Thanks agian for helping me hash this strange architecture out in my head.
Hi Guys,
To clear a hole Kit, I can work with Function&Midi and then Function&Play? Right?
How can I get Function&Midi? Is the Midi-Control under the Global Control?
Sorry for this noob question but until now I cleared my Kits with starting a new Kit
or with Function&Play for each Machine.
The only way i figured out how to have A COMPLETELY BLANK PART (blank part track slots as well) when loading a new PART is to leave slots 1-8 empty in your static and flex sample slots list’s.
Function and then 
but cant find that midi (button/function) whatever… shame on me
