I often don’t know which samples I want to have together.
I know Rample has layers, but I run into difficulties when I want to use a sample from one kit (for example A3) with a sound from another kit (for example D2).
I really wish there was a way to scroll through and audition samples and build a kit live.
Just double checking this isn’t possible?
It seems a bit odd that we are expected to know which samples we are going to want to combine in advance?
Yeah I hear ya. I usually do this on my PC. It’s pretty easy to copy and paste samples/layers to a new folder. I like to customize BD, SN, and HH combos. I also like to take melodic sounds and set up euclidean/random triggers to get a Marbles-like thing going. But yes unfortunately there is not a way to set up custom folders on the module itself.
I think the kit workflow is pretty nice, but for sure it implies preparation work…
that I guess in some way is the anti-thesis of eurorack (for many)
… though in fairness, managing samples is laborious enough, its probably better done on big computer screen.
(that said, pretty much doesnt matter how samples are managed, I still hate the process )
yeah, it be nice…
though, in practice I suspect not that useful given the size of the screen with anything like a linear list of samples… as, you can’t really see filenames very well, and just auditioning sounds would be pretty tedious too.
I suspect to be useful, it’d have to be done in a completely different way, with some kind of tag/hierarchical structure to samples for finding and then selecting samples to add to a kit.
but that’s a huge amount of dev effort, so Id guess quite unlikely to happen, but you never know.
anyway… please send feature requests/suggestions to squarp via the contact page
