GO XLR User Manual

10.2  Working with the Sampler Tab

The Sampler tab can be found in the Control Tabs section located in the bottom half of the GO XLR app window on your computer.
Within the Sampler tab, the Settings window shows controls for the sample banks on the left, along with playback options. 
The Sampler section to the right shows the filename and waveform for the currently-selected Sample Pad, along with some basic editing tools so you can trim the 

length of the sample as needed.
When you go to the Bank>Button section and click on any of the Sample Pads listed, the Waveform window will change to display the audio waveform for that 

Sample Pad.

NOTE:

 You can sample your voice through your vocal effects setup, so however your voice sounds in your headphones at that moment will be captured in the sample.

10.3  Editing a Sample

Once you have used a Sample Pad to capture a sample, you can then edit the 

sample for length by using the editing bars on the left and right sides of the 

waveform.
1.  Sample some audio by pressing-and-holding one of the four Sample Pads.
2.  Make sure this Sample Pad is selected under Bank>Button in the GO XLR app 

so that the sample’s waveform appears in the Waveform window on 

the right.

3.  To edit the sample’s beginning, click on the left-hand editing bar 

immediately to the left of the sample waveform.

4.  Drag the editing bar rightward until you find the right beginning point for 

sample playback.

5.  To edit the sample’s ending, click on the right-hand editing bar immediately 

to the right of the sample waveform.

6.  Drag the editing bar to the left until you like how the sample ends.

10.4  Color Indicators for Sample Pads

You can assign colors to the Sample Pads so that you can tell a Sample Pad’s 

status at a glance, including the following conditions:

• 

active/loaded

—the Sample Pad has a sample loaded and is playing back 

(color is bright)

• 

inactive

—the Sample Pad has a sample loaded, but is not playing back 

(“active/loaded” color is dimmed)

• 

sample empty

—no sample currently loaded to the Sample Pad (dimmed 

color, which may be different from the “active/loaded” color)

10.5  Building a Sample Library

Your sample library can be built by going to the Samples tab in the upper left 

corner of the GO XLR app screen.
