NOTES
5.3 Sample Pack.
Play+ sample packs are formatted specically to operate within Play+
workow, taking full advantage of the intelligent integration to it’s full feature
set. User samples of course can also be used and have a more arbitrary
format. In order for Play+ to recognise and integrate a sample pack fully it
must full a precise set of criteria. This will be taken into account with the
ofcial factory packs and extensions, but should also be considered when
creating compatible custom sample packs.
