How are people liking the Model: Samples?

@Citizen

Can you please elaborate upon this workflow?

Do you record a single audio file of 120 individual hits in your DAW, and then import this sample into MS, and using the Sample Start knob, scroll through the various hits of a single ‘sample’ on a pad, which in fact holds 120 samples?

(A tiny bit like the 128 racks hack for Ableton drum racks)

How do you ensure the hits in the original file are all equally spaced and divided by 120?

(I hope that makes sense)

I’m going to direct you to other threads on this so that we don’t take this one off subject:

#1 , yes you can do it in a DAW, I have in the past. I talk about it here
Note that the link goes to an Octatrack topic, and OT uses 128 slices instead of the 120 that MS/DT/AR use.

#2 yea, you have the general ideal. If 120 “hits” in a chain, set length to 1 and then scroll the start parameter. If 60 “hits” in a chain, set length to 2, and then each hit will start on every other integer of the start parameter. If 30 “hits” in a chain, set length to 4, and then each hit will start on every 4th integer of the start parameter.

#3 as far as ensuring equal spacing, see the link in #1, or you can also use Octachainer if you don’t wish to use a DAW. Just be sure to use the 120/Rytm slice settings.
