assign pads to tracks

By cma Fri Sep 19, 2008 11:09 pm
Sap folks :)

I wonder how i can assign a pad to a chosen track.
example:

everytime i play the kick PAD2 i want it to be recorded on TRACK2.
cuz i like to play the hh snare and all at the same time and want them to automaticly get recoreded to their own tracks.

i want to have the possebilety to mute the sounds but now everything is recorded on track 1. kick snare it all hehe

you want to much.

learn how to record on the track you want it on.

learn how to copy trk1 to trk2 and delete the unwanted instruments.

do some work.

Nope, not that I've heard of.

You need to be on a selected track and do your recording.

Afterwards, copy that trk to different tracks and delete unwanted instruments in each track
and "make" the tracks where they only have on instrument going in them, "manually".

Maybe you could have found that out before you bought the machine and then you would have known exactly what you are getting into ya know.

like the ram thingy, lol. 8)
