Drambo Bites Ep. 2: Adding a Sampler for Drums - Daveypoo, The Mobile Music Minstrel
Episode 2 is live as promised!

Love this series @Daveypoo. Please keep it up and maybe I can learn Drambo by the end of June 😂totally lost without you.
I love the attempt to tone down the volume... it sounds like your keeping the frenetic energy (which I like because you get to the "amuse bouche" without the wait. BUT YOU'RE TALKING LIKE THERE'S SOMEONE SLEEPING IN THE NEXT ROOM.
Make that your brand... the amp'ed up ASMR Video king. So sexy.
I'm doubling my Patreon contributions for effective response to criticism.

Fuck it, I just upgraded to the $5 tier to get the software porn videos too! That's you with the
premium level offering right?
These Bites are going to put you on the map (or in an institution) with untold fame and fortunes. Untold because you are ready to go full on pitch-meister (no pun intended) and work the rubes for chump change. But there's hope for you yet. Hedge your bets.
Small children and early mornings provide unforeseen benefits to the middle-aged YouTuber.
Yep I hooked at 5$ a month as well.... need to learn and who does not want to help a guy with poo in his name. LOL
Safe bet. He can't keep this up so push him hard early to get these to daily.
He hit the right use case for me with this sample player intro. Making personal synths is hard to make anything like the great products I have used on my iPad. But I may get excited at some point if I'm taken there in small steps. I can also wait and see if anyone loads the work on PatchStorage and I can use the "watch a demo", install the preset model. Presets in this case will be like Mozaic scripts... as deep as many MIDI FX apps I would have bought. So, the top Drambo patches will be beyond cool.
STATUS: 6 Patreons and $20/month
We can do better!
(I wish @flo26 had a Patreon too).
Nice one, thanks Dave!
Worth noting - rather than using separate tracks, you can load up multiple samplers on a single track, and by adding a mixer to the end of the chain, get all your drum hits on one track
What? That's more than a bite. Show me! Tracks? Mixers? Someone's reading ahead to make us feel stupid. Teacher's pet. (OK, some of us have just felt stupid since forever and have this inferiority complex issue and we can attack anyone ahead of us).
Yep - I noted midway through the video that there are many different ways of doing multiple samples, this is just one way. I wanted to keep this one clean and ultra simple to start - I will address multiple samples per sampler in a separate bite!
😁
The hard part of doing these is not talking too much - if you've watched any of my other vids, you know that once I get going it's hard to shut me up, so I'm purposely keeping these ultra- focused on a single tidbit to keep the length to around 3 minutes.
Add three sampler instances into the track, followed by a mixer. If you click the + button on the mixer module, you should then see the waveform shape appear in the sampler boxes. Add each one, and it’ll add it to the mixer output.
Then follow Dave’s tutorial for loading samples, and assigning them to keys.
Sorry Dave, don’t want to distract from your tutorial.
I’ve found a bug though - I loaded up a bass drum, snare, and hi hat. Then replaced them with my own samples, but one would not pick up the new sample, just kept playing the original snare sound, even though I could see my new sample in the editor. I’ll try deleting that sampler, see if it fixes the issue.
I was just about to ask that!
Works really well - just deleted the sampler that wasn’t picking up my new file and reloaded it, and that’s working now. I’ve also increased the number of voices, so the sounds overlap.
Flipping good this. Basically AudioLayer built in.
Sorry Dave, didn’t mean to jump the gun. I think the beauty of this app is that you can see something in a vid, or screenshot, and think ‘I wonder if it can do....’, and the beauty is that it usually can, and it’s user friendly UI doesn’t get in the way of your flow.
Absolutely! It's so easy to see a path with this app once you've got a clear idea. That's why I thought to break this up into such tiny bits - there are almost too many paths to take, so this way my tutorials are as modular as the app itself.
😉
You guys know so much and it's important to remember the skills of the beginner when
making tutorials. Not assuming prior knowledge is key and then show a path that develops the students understanding and supports the option to ask questions.
Many will just take off with side experiments and post ideas for possible bites and that's helpful too. Knowing about the bug in the sampler can also be helpful if there's a workaround.
man you make things really clear that’s what i’ve always appreciated about your videos , even if i already have the knowledge given in the context they are always worth watching for your personality and great teaching style!
and yes with an app this big there’s many ways to do similar things, just gotta pick what you know and prefer, intrested to see how you’re working in drambo as these progress.
@MonzoPro that’s how i was doing my drums in an earlier experiment today, def is a great way to consolidate to one track, and is great each instrument can have its own effects chain.
Does any one know if this will have multiout in the future? Would love to send samples to to its own channel in AUM for some of my fav FX.
It’s on the roadmap apparently
Awesome @Daveypoo thanks. The video inspired me and sent me down a path to this little diddy:
Awesome @echoopera - I love it! It's nice to know these vids are helping you guys and gals make sense of this thing and then make MUSIC with this thing!
This this this with extra this. Always consider the boys at the back of the room who only want to be good. Honest.
The only tutorials I can actually follow
