easy access to samples on the mpc ren!

is there anyone who knows an easy way to get your drum sample on the mpc?
I also got maschine and I would like to browse through my maschine expansion samples easily.
and have them organized ..
anybody there can help?
thanks in advance

The Ren´s sample browsing isn´t as sophisticated as Maschine´s. But you can point the MPC software to your Maschine samples.

yeah but with all them folders its gonna be a lot of clicks in and out of folders..

try fuggin about with Zip Disks and for a bit......

then you will realise you already have easy access to samples on the mpc ren..

clicking in and out of folders is like a dream.....

Actually all you have to do is direct one of your browser folders (in the Ren) to the location where your Maschine samples are, on Mac it is /Volumes/Macintosh HD/Users/Shared/Maschine 2 Library/Samples, I forget exactly where they are on windows but you can right click on one of your samples while in Maschine and it will give you the location. Then simply use that location in one of your 5 browser folders in the Ren and you're good to go, Native Instruments already have the drum samples organized in folders like Kick, Snare, Clap, Shaker, ect.

yeah but not the expansions.. each expansion got its own folder. so if i should direct one of my browser folders i would have to direct to shared and thats kind of messy with all the other native instrument folders..
maybe i should put all maschine drum sample and expansion in 1 folder in shared... dont kno

I would love the Ren to be able to directly go through sounds like Kontakt does where you can just flick through your whole hard drive for sounds while playing rather than having to load everything into the Ren before you can use it within a program or keygroup.

The automatic assignment to pads of loaded sounds is missing in the MPC software, that was a nice feature in the 5000.

you can drop entire Folders on the mpc ren pads and it's gonna load all samples into the pads

Am I missing something, I'm pretty sure you have to load it when working in Kontakt, I think Maschine has the ability to audition sounds without loading them.

Thanks, ill try that. Too bad you can't do it from the controller?
