Drums

Postby pjblues » 09 May 2018, 14:53

Does anyone have a recommendation for some sort of drum sampler or drum machine to use with the Stage 3? I want to have drum loops play along with my Stage 3 for live performances. As an example does the Nord Pad 3 have the ability to import drum loops from Logic Pro or does something like the Roland drum pad have this ability?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.

I asked this question few weeks ago, well not in this way but I was thinking to get some:

general-synthesizers-keyboards-forum-f6/do-put-use-a-drums-machine-t13839.html?hilit=Do%20you%20use%20a%20drum%20machine

If you read the topics it will give you options between drum machine, pedals with loops and Apps. I download the Apps, they're were free and I just bought used an Arturia Drumbrute...

And yes, if you use sample editor you could have a loop from anywhere, logic or not, make it a Nord nsmp format and have it triggered by a one note and let it loop as long as you want....And play on it....

Can I ask, what is a Nord MSMP format? Are you saying I could trigger it from my keyboard on the Stage 3 or the Nord Drum/

nsmp for Nord Sample Format....The proprietary format used by Nord for their samples....So, you load any sample in wave format, the classic one, in the Nord sample editor, you assign the loop to any key, usually a key that is bottom low or top high, just in order not to loose too much room to play A. Piano or whatever othe roused you want to use, and then you record it into the nsmp format, lime you could do with a word document that you decide to record to a PDFs format....
But you have Pm'ed me for this one right?
Funny, I give advices on sampling as it's one of my weakest ability...Yeah, I'm not bad a looking at videos and tutorials on YouTube tough....

I still cannot understand...2 years ago, when I was on my Electro 5, I remember- I download samples from forum, one sample one one key, one sample onthe second key, and then all keybord with third sound. All evening I try to do that, but I don't know how...

You can assign only .wav files to individual keys or ranges in the Nord Sample Editor, not .nsmp samples files.

Check again the NSE manual and tutorial videos if you still have doubts on how to assign .wavs to key ranges.
