Share Your Autoload/Default Setup Thread

Anyone have a nice Autoload system going on? I'm interetsed to hear how yall customize the startup. Feel free to answer any or all topics:

- Default track names?
- Special Program templates?
- Other settings I'm not even thinking of...?

Details and other tips would be cool, whatever you're willing to share...

I always have full kits in programs, as I used to do in the 2k. I don't make hihat-only, snare-only, etc programs. This lets me change kits for tracks and try out different drums. Doing this live can be quite cool too, esp if you have one track with full drums on them.

Sorry, it's late. Am I making sense?

i load about 50 kits at the start. my default bars is 8 and my default bpm is 86.#. my tracks names all default to "mastamind" cause thats the clique i roll wit. and my startup screen says "MastaMind Clique
Lunatic Bastard" all serial killer note style.

best to start with absolutely nuthin'

shed those habits.

i always keep a full clip on auto load ready to rock

So far I've been leaning towards Arebee's policy, at least concerning sample loading. I got too many fresh sounds in my library to play favorites!

What I currently have in my autoload is this:

- A single program, which is named Main Drums. No samples are assigned. This program has all the program settings exactly how I like it (for drums), with Simults already programmed in. Aside from speeding things up, my goal is to get some kind of consistency in how I lay out my drum programs, to make editing easier when I go back to older projects.

- 3 drum samples that I very frequently use for layering.

- I only have a default track name for track 1, which is Main Drums. I tried default naming all my tracks certain things (again with the goal of consistency across projects), but then I realized that I liked having the unused tracks show up with blank names in the Track Mute screen.

all dressed up & nowhere to go
