Sirsicksiks sampler: How to load samples into tables?


#1

Hi. Im trying to wrap my head around loading samples into this project. I know that they have to be 48khz 16 bit raw. I have a collection of sampleloops from a jupiter4 that i want to load into this project and turn axoloti into a normal keyboard based sampler (like a mellotron or...whatever). I'm sure anyone who has experimented with loading samples in axoloti will be able to help me, so the help doesnt neceserraly have to come from sir sick himself. (hes busy enough making modules!!!)
I dont need any explanation about the sequencer etc.

This is the patch.

Thanks!

I haven't used this patch, but it looks like the samples should be in the memory card 0:\DS and 0:\DT directory.

For example
0:/DS/1.wav
0:/DS/2.wav
...
0:/DT/1.raw
0:/DT/2.raw

Do you have the samples in the correct location? Make sure you have the correct selection for "load tables". It also looks like you have to click on the "save settings" button.

If you're struggling with fundamentals, I recommend trying the demo for "Sample drum machine.axp" and using your own samples. I believe that if you don't specify a file location, the patch will look for the sample in 0:/patchname/

Let us know what works.

Looking forward to hearing what you're making!

If you want to use the string index to load files the filename numbers should be in 3 digits, like 001, 002, etc., so if the files are saved in a folder called "DS" it would look like this:
0:/DS/001..raw
0:/DS/002.raw
0:/DS/003.raw

If you want to name the files maybe "jup", and add the 001, 002, etc. then it will look like this:
0:/DS/jup001.raw
0:/DS/jup002.raw
0:/DS/jup003.raw

There are programs that can rename many files in one go: for example Name Changer for Mac, which is free. You have to make a few specific setting to make it work properly with raw files. Ask if you are going down that road :wink:

Thanks!:slight_smile:
I'll look into when I have time:)

Oh, BTW you should NOT write the 001, 002 into the string index object.

The prefix should be:
0:/DS/jup

Then you use the string index inlet to choose 001, 002 etc.with a ctrl/i for example.

Suffix should be:
.raw

Ok I still dont understand this;)

I have formatted my SD card as FAT MS DOS. Made a folder in it called DS.
Inside that folder i have put a file called jup001.RAW

I have changed both the string/index to be 0:/DS/jup
I have create a midi in module, and connected gate to gate in of the adsr, the sample playerHQ gate in, I am not sure what the logic/latch thing to the far left of the sample tronoller HQ is doing? and should i connect the gate out to the trigger in? Meh? What is the function of that module? How do i control the pitch? I cant hear any output.

Thanks:)

Ok. It turns out i need to upload the sample via the axoloti software and not via the finder app... Its working now.

I must say i really dont understand the design here.
Do i need a samplercontroller module for each sample i import? Do i need a samplerpler module as well for each sample i import?

How do i import multiple samples? How do define each samples range on the keyboard/which sample should be triggerede by which key?

Sorry, for the ultimate noobness... i just don understand the structure at all:)
