question about making 1 set of sets

Post by milo »

Hi people,

I have my xpro for like 3 weeks. I have a cupple of sets, but each set has some good sounds and styles. Now i want to make 1 set to be able to use the styles and sound that i want. My question is how can i do this the best? Is there maybe a program for?

I thought about it..deleting, loading, saving..but it is difficult because there are different samples and drum kits. So what is the best way?

thanxs ;-)

There is no best way im afraid, other than one by one saving, deleting etc...


Im currently doing a similar thing, and I can tell you its looooooooooong.

I have a spreadsheet and For each style, i write down what channel uses what sound & from where.

Then when you import it clean & new, you reedit the bank no's & sounds with the new mapped ones.

I'll give you a clue how easy it is:
Right now i am combining a SET from 7 SETs for someone, thats what i do for
living sometimes, he pays me 1600$ just to combine them, my own SET that
i created from scratch doesnt cost half of it...now you have a clue of how easy
it is...if you dont know about programmin on the synth i would just tell you
GOOD LUCK!

hi Basari,

It would be nice if you can explain me how you do it. Because the drum kits and samples are the problem, i don't now which drum kits is used by which styles...so if you could help me i appreciate it.

This has been written Billions and Billions of times in here and it was not one of
but the biggest issue and it still is on the PA800 section. Its not easy, its not
easy to even explain, not to do it:

Step 1:
1. Open SET 1, check it out and find out what you want, write down each style, each perf and sound.
2. For each style write down which DRUM KIT and which USER SOUND it uses and that means on
what track in the style it is,on what location in the User bank it is.
3. For each performance write down which User Sound the performance uses.
4. Do exactly the same with SET 2.
Step 2:
1. Go to Sound Mode then hit record and enter SAMPLING. Click the arrow and choose DELETE.
Delete all samples, multisamples and user drum kits, in Sampling Info check for everything to be 0.
2. Go to MEDIA MODE and go to ERASE, on the POP UP menu choose USER SSD and in there in
each folder delete everything.Start with Performances, then Pads, then Sounds, then User Drum Kits.
3. Start LOADing ONLY the Styles that you wrote down, one by one in one bank or whatever.
4. Start LOADing ONLY the Performances you wrote down, same as Styles.
5. Start LOADing the USER DRUM KITS as you wrote them down, one by one, they will LOAD their
own samples, you dont haveto do anything in sampling mode, just keep loading one by one.
6. Do the same with USER SOUND...exactly the same as LOADing the USER STYLES.
Step 3:
1. Open the BOOK that you wrote:
2. Go to Style Mode then choose the first style then hit RECORD then you are in Style Record Mode
and in there hit MENU and choose Style Elements.
3. In here start to assign each DrumKit to its place and also each User Sounds that was used in that
style. Do that for eachStyle Element, in here if you press VAR or any other element the programs will
change, you have to check for each VAR,FILL, INTRO.
4. After you do that and it sounds ok to you press the ARROW on top and hit SAVE, SAVE that style.
Hit Record again and get out of there...you have to do that for each style.
5. Sellect each Performance and in the 3 Upper tracks start assigning the User Sounds they use.
6. Choose Media, go to Save, choose ALL, NEW SET, rename it, hit OK, check ALL of the BOXes and SAVE.
