Can´t find sample ???

Post by kazuya »

Hi,
i´m trying to import a Sample via Drag&Drop and then use the LoopLab Slicemode to play around.
But after closing the Project, M5 always tells me that he can´t find the sample.

Really need help. This Sampler destroyed 3 Beats i made.

(BTW, everything is up to date on a clean Mac!!!)

Excuse my bad english. I´m just a german.

When I drop a sample into M2 ver 2 it sends it to a folder called "Dropped Files." See if you can find that folder. It might have your 'lost' samples. Be sure to save samples & presets when you save the work. I've ton a lot of custom sampling with M5 and it is pretty solid here. I'm wondering if you just need to point it in the right directory? MAybe not, but it's a start.

THX for the reply.
It always works if i map my samples manually.
But if i use the Looplab and slice my sample it gets lost.
Seems like M5 handles the slices as single samples.
Because when i slice "sampleX" into 30 slices he looses 30 "sampleX"-samples.
I tried everything... I wonder if i´m the only one having this problem with looplab...

Don´t try it :shake:

VERY BAAAaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAD.

Think i´ll use Ableton, or a simple slicer like "Sonivox sampla".

Unfortunetly i can´t get my (Update) money back :?
