Organizing Samples and Editing Note Events
We recommend naming and editing your files before recording any 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. Let's rename the exisiting Program as we'll want to create more Programs later on. Right-
click Program 001 in the Project Information panel, and select Rename. Name the Program (e.g.,
Drums), and click OK.
Right-click the name of a sample (e.g., Bassdrum-01), and select Rename. Enter a suitable name for the
sample (e.g., Bass Drum 1 or Kick 1). Repeat this for the other samples in the Program. This will help
keep your Program organized as you add more samples to it.
