WSLs

waveform
simult
layers

would be sine, noise, square, and other additional waveforms which you layer to your main drums or percussion via simult and control functions like volume, pan, filter and start point via qlink slider.

this is going to change everything about my drums

ya-
this IS a great way to do business!
layering multi-sampled waveforms(like every 4 notes or so),
you can use the pad mult to do some fatass basic synthesis thru using all the options we now have:)
Now I don't regret selling my mpc4000 and getting this 1000. when midi grid hit's,mmmm.....can't wait!

no joke. i'll give a more in depth discussion of this once i really try it out. i am psyched. this will allow our drums to be incredibly distinct.

you could use lots of things besides just basic waveforms if you want. =) or just to clean things up... you could find the loops in whatever instrument samples you are using with the new autochromatic, not only will it allow you to sample very short samples and still have a decent sustain (Just like the s1000 taught you), but you could then extract those for new waveforms. Also take the loops from your cymbal samples to similar effect, or any drum really, 808 kick decay anyone? Gotta love drum layering.
Another nice trick is to use the lfo as modulation for the waveform samples in addition to the q-links if you like.
Oh and if you want to make your own waveforms electronically try a program/vst called RndWave32

Hey SammyMyMan! hit me up? Where in Portland you from?

Thanks for the link.
