3.
Instead of pushing the encoder knob, we'll hit the pad where we want the Sample to go.
Let's take the last pad in the first row (pad D1), on the far right. After a quick Pad Matrix
animation, you'll see the chosen pad lit up dimly now, indicating that it contains a Sam-
ple, but is not yet playing.
4.
Quickly escape Browse mode by pushing the BROWSE (MIDI) button, then hit the pad
you just loaded and then go back into Browse mode by pushing the BROWSE (MIDI) but-
ton again.
5.
Let's fill in the drums a bit by adding some toms to our set.
6.
While still in Browse mode, scroll to "B1 HiHat and Clap."
7.
Hit the second pad in the top row (pad B1).
8.
Leave Browse mode, hit the pad B1.
9.
Hit pad A1 to add the "Intro Beat" Sample to the mix.
Switching Out Samples
You might not like the sound of the Verb sound on D1. Let's try out some other Samples, this
time on-the-fly so we can hear how things sound in context.
1.
Enter Browse mode, the BROWSE (MIDI) button should then be blinking.
2.
Move the encoder knob up or down the list and select another Sample. Let's say it's "C1
Bubble Gate."
3.
Hit the pad currently playing the Verb Sample, D1, and it will be replaced.
4.
You can continue to go through different Samples while still in Browse mode, testing to
see how they fit with the other Samples in your newborn Remix Set.
Add a few more Samples to your Remix Set. You don't have to fill up all sixty four Sample
Cells! You don't even have to fill in a whole page. But to get a feel for things, you should have
at least some of the Sample Slots with two or more Samples in them so that you can change
out different elements as you are playing your set.
In this example, we've loaded the kick on the left and moved to less rhythmic elements to
the right. A good rule of thumb is to group sounds that have similar functions (all the kicks
or all the stabs, for example) into the same Sample Slot (column). But you can obviously
organize your Remix Sets however you want.
