Simply change this so the note you play on your MIDI keyboard corresponds to the audio played by SampleOne. Above the waveform there is a parameter labelled ‘Root’. The root note is the note of the sample at its original pitch, SampleOne will use this to map the sample correctly to the MIDI keyboard. SampleOne does not automatically detect the root note of the sample so we’ll have to do that. We’ve loaded the sample ‘US_LH2_Synth_120_bandit_A’. In SampleOne we can do this either by dragging and dropping, or by pressing the ‘+’ icon in the top left of the sample window and browsing our system. Let’s start by loading a sample from Lo-Fi House 2. Tweaking sample properties in StudioOne XT In this guide we’re going to be using the free taster pack of Lo-Fi House 2 from UNDRGRND Sounds. As well as having all the trappings of a traditional soft sampler, SampleOne allows you to do some cool stuff like recording directly into it and loading multiple samples.
SampleOne XT is Studio One’s powerful built-in sampler.
