Organizing by Folders
e Instrument Wizard can also map out complex dimension and velocity splits but to do this, the various
splits need to be organized into separate folders.
For example, if we have a piano that is 4 velocities with sustai n pedal up and down samples, th e folder
structure would look like this.
Piano Velocity 1 Ped al Up
Piano Velocity 2 Ped al Up
Piano Velocity 3 Ped al Up
Piano Velocity 4 Ped al Up
Piano Velocity 1 Ped al Down
Piano Velocity 2 Ped al Down
Piano Velocity 3 Ped al Down
Piano Velocity 4 Ped al Down
In the Instrument Wizard, we would be able to assign each of the folders full of properly named samples t o
the proper dimension s.
Keep in mind that each of these folders could contain up to 88 samples each. at would be 704 samples
that would have to be mapped by hand without the Instrument Wizard.
e Instrument Wizard can map these out for you in about a second. So, as a general rule, there needs to
be one folder of properly named samples for every single velocity or dimension split.
