- ABOUT MELDAPRODUCTION
Sample library analyzer is a unique feature, which lets MDrummer analyze a whole sample library and create components and
drumsets using the samples, perfectly compatible other drumsets and rhythms. The sample analyzer is a wizard, which will guide
you through the whole process, which should take just a couple seconds. MDrummer will analyze all the samples, determine their
type, adjust volume, create components and drumsets from them and store them in Imported directory. If enabled, it can
even process layered multisampled drums.
Important thing to note is that MDrummer uses file names to determine types of the samples. It is impossible to determine a
drum type by audio analysis, because many drums just are too alike, in fact in many cases even a human isn't able to tell what
kind of drum certain sample is. So the engine is searching for substrings in the file name, including path. For example, "bass" and
"kick" are typical names for bass drum samples. MDrummer contains the most typical keywords by default, but you can edit
them in the sample analysis page of the wizard.
INPUT MIDI FILTER
Input MIDI filter provides very efficient way to connect MDrummer to any MIDI source, e.g. electric drumset, keyboard or output
of another plugin. It is possible to manipulate several settings for each of the 128 keys defined by MIDI standard.
