Organizing Samples and Editing Note Events
We recommend doing some naming and editing before recording further. Let's use the software, which is
easier for editing.
The collection of drum samples you loaded earlier (and their respective pad assignments) are arranged in
a
Program :
•
To rename a Program, right-click the Program in the Project Information panel, and select
Rename . Enter a suitable name for the Program.
•
To rename a sample, right-click the name of a sample (e.g., Bassdrum-01 ), and select
Rename . Enter a suitable name for the sample. Repeat this for the other samples in the
Program. This will help keep your Program organized if you add more samples to it.
In the grid, you can see your recorded note events. Click and drag a note to move it to a different position.
By default, you can position notes only by quantization values, defined by the
Time Correct value. You
can change the value by clicking the Time Correct drop-down menu. We recommend working with 8 or
16 values. Hold down your keyboard's Shift key and use the arrow keys to nudge events without
restricting ("snapping") them to the grid.
Hold down your keyboard's Control key (Windows) or Command key (Mac OS X) and click and drag a
note to copy it. Double-click a note to delete it.
Velocity data can be easily edited in the velocity lane below the grid. Click a note event or place the
mouse over a velocity bar in the lane. A small round handle will appear at the top of the velocity bar.
Move the mouse vertically to change its value.
Let's make some basic edits to the sound of the Sequence.
