Swapping a single sound out on a drum kit

Seems like you'd either have to either:

1. Lay the whole kit down onto tape, swap particular sound on tape, lift and drop back into kit and re-set all key start start/stop points
2. Do it on the computer

Are there any tricks for doing this more easily?

Wish you could drop a lifted sound into only one key on the drum seq somehow.

pretty sure you can lift + drop into one key on the drum sampler. i just did it

Did you do it WITHIN a drum kit, though? You can re-arrange the sounds with lift/drop, but you can’t drop a single sound from tape into a single part of the kit. Right?

@daedalus, no, you can’t just do a single slot. the drum sampler does it as one long sample.


You could try copy and pasting the sample from the drum sampler to tape, adding your new sample to the end of it, make it one sample then copy and paste it back in to the drum sampler. you may need to adjust the start and end ponits again…havent’ tried this


hahaha, just actually read your original post and thats what you already suggested. ignore me, i’m used to it! ha

The thing that sucks about this is that when you lift the whole drum kit and paste it to tape, there is a bunch of noise at the beginning, which I think might be the encoder/effect values, etc. So then you have to try to trim that off in order to lift it and fit it back into the kit again properly, and you then have to re-set the start/stop points for each sound. Pain.
