Hi,
Thanks for the advice; I'm still missing a part of something.....
Let me see if I understand this correctly (I wish to use three wave files, brush sweeps, within SD2) so I:
- Add a midi track
- go to drop down and choose drum map manager
- choose new
- choose SD2 in presets
then?
- add soft synth i.e., SD2
- call up SD2 interface (i.e., screen with drums on it)
If I then choose the "sfz" file that contains the info regarding the location of the three brush sweeps, I still then do not get them on the if I click on the snare picture, nor am I able to find them in the piano roll.
If I then try to add them (i.e., assigning the notes in drum manager) I am unable to hear the brush strokes.
I'll give the blank map a try when my blood pressure is down.
Furthermore, do you know how to add a map? I've been provided with a file with a ".map" extension with the Smart Loops download. However, I don't know how to add it to the drop down list in the Drum Map Manager. I don't seem to be able to open the ".map" file in Wordpad to view it and type it in myself.
I hate this program's lack of instruction and damn Smart Loops for their lack of instructions too. This should be a simple procedure. (Sorry for the rant).
Thanks again,
Karl
