DigiDtix - multiple samples workflow (once more, compare to EG Pulse)

Hi!
I’ve created an acoustic drum kit sampling a song from YouTube. I’m using multiple samples for snare, kick... using round robin. Such a great feature. Really makes drums come alive. Does RG Pulse have Round Robin?. I love round robin.
Doing it is “easy”, just drag and drop and it’ll ask you for a layer... except...

But I really don’t get the sample layer editing.

Unless I’m missing something... How do you know what layers are taken?. What’s in each layer?. Which layer are you editing?. Even when selecting velocity... you have no clue if there’s something or not once assigned. I mean, o don’t carry paper and pen to write down if I assigned “sd_db_dly” to layer 1 or layer 2... how the hell do you know what’s happening?

Some things that I really wish they better in Digistix... how do they compare to EG pulse?.

  • comprehensive multilayers (does EG pulse implement it any better?)
  • adsr for sample editing (I believe eg pulse has it)
  • Eq and more sound mangling per pad (eq, compression and saturation would be nice).
  • Sample transient detection for slicing (EG pulse has it)

    I drag and drop my samples directly onto pads by using slide over tabs in standalone. Either Files or Audioshare will do the trick. I do them in order, if I have 5 snare hits I drop them 1 at a time in order 1-5, softest to loudest. I’ve been putting the softest snare hit first and then louder and louder as I get up to the 5th layer. Which Im pretty sure is the correct order... so I do just that one pad, and drop the samples in order. If I mess up or I’m unsure about a layer I clear them all and start again, but that doesn’t happen that often....

    If you are only using one sample per pad turn off velocity layers and round robin. Then just drag and drop.

    This might help a little - or be interesting if you’re really into DigiStix. I love it. I keep looking at EG Pulse but I’m a full time muso so income is not great right now. Trying not to buy apps for the sake of it.... but it’s hard! 😂

    Yeah, that’s how I do it too. It’s just confusing there’s no indication of which layers are taken, what’s where... You’re probably organized and label your snare samples in tune with layers like “sn1, sn2...”. I don’t and I forget what’s where. It shouldn’t be hard to, for ex, show the sample name instead of “Layer 1”.

    @Jamie_Mallender ill definitely check out the video. I’ve watched a few of yours. Good stuff!

    Yea typically the Multisamples I use are labeled, so I just do them in order. You do have a point, maybe instead of layer 1,2,3,4,5, it could say the sample name in that slot, and if empty just say the layer #. That’s something you’ll have to ask Paul the music man about it’s best to reach him on YouTube and his email which someone just listed in another thread I think about the Strummer app you might want to look in that thread for his email address
