ADJUSTING ZONE RANGE AND ADJUSTING ROOT KEYS
To adjust the keyboard range for a zone, drag its left or right boundary handle. Zones can be detached by right-clicking on a handle and selecting “Detach”. Keys between the detached zones will become silent, not playing any sample at all.

That's great!

Is this in relation to the NSE4, or a previous s/w version, please?

Cheers.

You're probably better of just exporting a 1 second long silent .wav file and using that for silent zones. Simply take whatever short bit in a DAW project, change level to -inf db, and export it as wav.

Hi Elias,

Does that mean: "negative infinity decibel"?

I have never heard of that before to be honest.

Hey WannitBBBad,

Got it! Thank you very much. Also with the help of one of Marc's videos at My Keys To Music.

I had no idea about the 'hidden' right-click. Although I am very surprised that I did not stumble upon through sheer serendipity because I was continuously clicking all over the damn place!

So it's called 'Detach'. I was elated when I finally managed to manipulate it!

Just going to bounce the new boundary-zone preset over to the synth now . . .

Glad it worked for you - I tried it as well just to check. Take care.

Many thanks for the clarification!

Do you "consolidate" your sample projects using the 'consolidate' option under the 'Save' tab, please?

I do, it helps when putting together individual sample projects to send to others.
