As with your controller, you can activate the Autoload feature to listen how the selected Sample
work with the other percussions in your Pattern. To do this:
1. Click the Autoload button at the bottom left corner of the Browser to activate it (you can
deactivate the Prehear button next to it):
2. Now click any Sample in the result list: It will automatically load in the selected Sound
slot, replacing the previously loaded Sample. If the Pattern is playing, you can directly
hear the new Sample in context.
Try to exchange a few Samples to familiarize yourself with the procedure described above, both
on your controller and in the software. This should allow you to build a custom drum kit that
fits your needs!
Note that you can also start from a blank Group and entirely fill it up with the Sounds of your
choice!
Selecting another Snare Sample on the Controller
On your controller, do the following:
1. Press Button 3 to select SOUND.
Press BROWSE to show the Browser.
2. Press pad 6 to select its Sound.
3. Press Button 1 or Button 2 above the displays to select SAMPLES.
