17.5.7 Adding Samples to the Sample Map
You can add Samples directly to the Map view of the Zone page.
To see the Map view, make sure that the Sample View button is disabled next to the Zone tab at the
top of the Sample Editor. If this is not the case, click it to disable it.
► To add a new Sample, select one from the Browser or from your operating system and
drag it onto the Sample Map of the Map view (the biggest part in the middle of the Zone
page). Once your mouse is hovering the Sample Map, and before you release the mouse
button:
▪ Drag your mouse horizontally to choose the root key of the new Zone.
▪ Drag your mouse vertically to adjust the key range: With your mouse in the lower half of the
Sample Map the Zone will cover the root key only; dragging your mouse up in the upper
half of the Sample Map will extend the Zone’s key range up to one octave above the root
key; with your mouse at the top of the Sample Map, the Zone will cover the entire key-
board.
▪ As you release the mouse button, the Zone is created.
You can add other Samples to the Sound via this method.
The key range of several Zones can overlap, as can the velocity range.
Adding Multiple Samples at Once
You can also drag several Samples to the Sample Map at once:
1. Hold [Ctrl] ([Cmd] on macOS) or [Shift] on your computer keyboard and click the desired
Samples in the Browser or in your operating system.
2. Drag the selected Samples to the Sample Map.
→ This will create multiple adjacent Zones. The width (i.e. key range) of these Zones will
again depend on where they are dropped in the Sample Map: The higher you drop, the
wider each Zone will be. Dragging to the top part layers all Zones across the entire key-
board.
