NN-XT SAMPLER

Adding More Samples to the Key Map

You can add additional samples to an existing key map in the same way as de-

scribed above.

1. Make sure that no already loaded sample has edit focus.

If you don’t, there’s a risk that the selected sample will be replaced, see be-

low. To remove the edit focus, click in an unoccupied area in the Sample col-

umn or the key map area.

2. Open the Sample Browser.

3. Select the sample(s) you want to load in the browser and click

“OK”.

The new sample(s) are added to the key map.

Replacing a Sample

To replace the sample in a zone, proceed as follows:

1. Make sure the zone has edit focus and do one of the following:

D Click the Browse Samples button.

D Select Browse Samples from the Edit menu or the NN-XT context

menu.

D Double click in the zone.

Any of these methods will open the standard file browser in which you can

select a new sample for the zone.

2. Select one and only one sample in the Sample Browser.

If you select more than one sample in the browser the samples you load will

not replace the one with edit focus. They will instead be added below it.

Quick Browsing through Samples

If you want to quickly browse through a number of samples, for example to see

which one of them would fit best in a certain context, proceed as follows:

1. Set up the zone as desired and make sure it has edit focus:

2. Use the arrow buttons in the Browse Samples section to select the

next/previous sample in the same directory.

Removing Samples

D To remove a sample from a zone, select it by clicking on it and then

select “Remove Samples” from the Edit menu or the NN-XT context

menu.

This will remove the sample from the zone, leaving it empty. Note that you

can remove the samples from several selected zones at the same time.

Auditioning samples

You can audition the loaded samples in two ways:

D By pressing [Option] (Mac)/[Alt] (Windows) and clicking a sample

in the sample column.

The mouse pointer will take on the shape of a speaker symbol when you

move it over the sample column.

Clicking a sample will play it back at its root pitch (see page 167). Further-

more, the sample will play back in its unprocessed state. That is, without any

synth-parameters applied (see page 175).

D By pressing [Option] (Mac)/[Alt] (Windows) and clicking a sample

in the keyboard column.

The difference here is that you will hear the sample at the pitch correspond-

ing to the key you clicked and with any and all processing applied. The click

mimics a key played with velocity 100. Also note that this may trigger several

samples, depending on whether they are mapped across the same or over-

lapping key ranges, and the velocity range settings (see page 164 and page

170 respectively).

Adding Empty Zones

You can add empty zones to a key map. Empty zones are treated just like zones

containing samples, in that they are automatically selected, gets edit focus and

are assigned a five octave key range when they are first created. However, you

can only add one zone at a time. It is also possible to resize, move and edit

empty zones in the same way as zones containing samples.

D To add an empty zone, pull down the Edit menu or the NN-XT con-

text menu and select “Add Zone”.

An empty zone is added below any existing zones in the key map. An empty

zone is indicated with the text “**No Sample**”.

A newly added empty zone.

After you have added an empty zone, you can assign a sample to it, just as when

Replacing a Sample, or when Quick Browsing, as described above.
