region, dimension, velocity split a nd sample by playing it via MIDI instead of having to h unt and

dimensions and more regions, this will be an invaluable too l.
(You will probably wa nt to turn MIDI Sel ect o again whe n you are tweaki ng various parameters. For
example if you are playing a note in real-time as you adjust a lte r on the bottom velocity, you d on’t want
the MIDI Select tool constantly throwing you to the top velocity split every time you play too loud. is is a
tool that you will toggle on and o depending on what you are do ing.)
Now we will add another dimensio n to the sustaining bass n ote we have been working on . is will be a
Mod Wheel dimension that will al low the Mod Wheel to swit ch between the sustain samples and some

1. Import the two Bass-Staccato folders into the Sample Window
(Bass-Stac f and Bass-Stac p).
2. Click the header at the top of o ne of the unused dimension wi ndows.

You can use any of the empty dimension windows to the right of the
