Browse Loops... (Record+Reason)
This menu item is used to add a loop to the selected Dr. Octo Rex Loop Slot. Files to be imported can be in REX, RCY
or RX2 file format.
Loading a new REX file will replace any currently loaded file in the selected Loop Slot.
Browse Samples... (Record+Reason)
This menu item lets you load samples into the devices that use them; the Redrum, the NN-19 and NN-XT. The fol-
lowing sample formats can be loaded:
•Wave (.wav)
This is the standard audio format for the PC platform.
• AIFF (.aif)
This is the standard audio format for the Mac platform.
• SoundFont samples (.sf2)
This is an open standard format for wavetable synthesized audio, developed by E-mu systems and Creative Tech-
nologies.
• REX file slices (.rex2, .rex, .rcy)
REX files are music loops created in the ReCycle program. This program “slices” up loops into multiple samples.
These samples - or slices - can be loaded into the devices mentioned.
Redrum:
To use this menu item to load a new drum sound into Redrum, proceed as follows:
1. Select a channel in the drum machine, by clicking its Select button.
2. Select Browse Samples.
The Redrum sample browser opens.
3. Navigate to a location containing any of the sample formats listed above, select one and click Open.
NN19:
This menu item can also be used to add a sample to a key zone in a key map in the NN19 sampler.
1. Select a key zone.
This can be empty, or contain a sample - it doesn’t matter for now.
2. Use the browser to add one or several (see below) sample(s).
The following will happen:
D If the zone contained a sample prior to loading, this will be replaced, both in the zone and in the sample mem-
ory, unless the sample was also used by another key zone.
D If you loaded several samples, one of the samples (the sample that was selected furthest down in the Browser
list) will be loaded into the key zone, and the other samples will be loaded into the sample memory.
NN-XT:
This menu item is used for adding one or more sample(s) to a key zone in the NN-XT:
1. Make sure the Remote Editor panel is folded out, by clicking the small arrow in the bottom left corner.
If the remote editor panel is folded in, you will only be able to browse for NN-XT patches .
2. Use the sample browser to add one or several sample(s).
The sample(s) will be placed in separate zones and mapped across the same key range.
