The batch transfer function, as the name suggests, allows transfer of multiple
files to a sampler. However, WaveSurgeon Advanced also allows:
Sorting of the order of sample transfer;
Mapping of samples across the keyboard;
Smoothing of transferred samples.
Click the æBatch TransferÆ option from the sampler menu to begin. Then select
the profile associated with your sampler, and add the samples you wish to send
either by dragging them from folders into the box, or by clicking the æAddÆ button.
Click on a sample + click æPlayÆ to audition it. It is also possible to remove
samples, clear all the samples, and sort the order of them from the buttons on
the right hand side.
If auto mapping is selected, then samples will be mapped in order across the keyboard
in (top to bottom) order of their appearance in the box. In other words, if the
root key is set to C, and the white keys option is off, then the first sample
in the list will be set to C, the second to C#, the next to D, the fourth to D#,
E, and so on. You can alter the order of samples by clicking upon them and dragging
up or down.
When happy with the settings, check or uncheck the æauto mapÆ box as required,
and set the position in the sampler memory you wish to send samples to (not required
for Akai samplers). It is also possible to enable smoothing on transmitted samples
(if required) and the base note and mapping interval by clicking the æSet MappingÆ
box.The æBatch SendÆ button begins transmission, whilst æAbortÆ stops the operation.
