OK, this is a basic question, so apologies, but I recently bought the Octatrack to integrate into my live set up and I just cannot get my head around the architecture: banks, patterns, parts, blah blah blah!
I just need a tiny bit of basic help if anyone can spare two mins . . .
I’ll the use machine alongside a laptop and two synthesisers. The laptop will play big chunks of audio — stems etc — over eight songs. When a song changes, I need Octatrack to quickly change to another collection of pre-loaded samples. So, for instance, I might have some drums I want to use on the Octatrack on my first song, but then switch to some other vocal samples on song two etc.
I thought the way to do this was by loading different samples into different banks. But when I load samples into bank 2, they now appear in bank 1 as well. Grrrr. It’s driving me mad.
Can someone help me to understand what on earth I should be doing?
THANKS!
