Hello,
I'm mapping drum pad samples to a 16 pad sampler, such as this link:
http://ift.tt/1EPqAgv
But I will have one hit for each most likely instead of two.
Ergonomically, it makes sense. But then I realized that some sounds occupy the same time in electronic music such as snare/clap, cymbal/crash... And some of them cannot sound together while they occupy the same space, such as Open HH and Closed HH... But instead for the ones that are not in the picture, non-drum/other percussive elements, such as Claves, Shakers, etc... In order to create the best layout, I need to know how these other ones group up in time/space. Something tells me that similar groupings has to do with a separation of an instrument's frequency range but not always applicable (such as snare/clap). Also it seems preferable to have certain FX spread-out in different pads I think, seems certain effects are used at different times. Only someone with experience can answer...
Why I am doing this?
Because It makes sense ergonomically and also because I want to start with the best workflow so I don't have to take the time to re-learn something later-on the right way when I find out my finger tapping isn't layed-out properly enough. (efficiency). I could also use this to categorize my sampler's database based on pad location... And that would be have amazing consequences in sample-loading workflow.
I realize this long list is probably more than just one group of 16 pads, but that's fine. I intend to make this a long post with everyone's thoughts on group-hits to benefit everyone. Because I'm sure everyone thought about this at some point in time but no-one had the patience to analyse it, contribute to help facilitate the thought process please... Here is what I have so far:
:synth:
Sure Groups:
- Snare/Clap
- Closed HH/Open HH
- Cymbal/Crash
- Ride/Closed HH???
Uncategorised:
- Claves
- Shakers
- Tambourines
- Maracas
- Rimshot
- Triangle
- Cowbell
- Bongo
- Agogo
- Conga
- Guiro
- Drabuka
- Knock
- Click
- Hit/Stabs
- Scratch
- Reverses
- Sweep/Swells
- Zaps
- Blip/Blop
- Drones
Any other hits you can think of...
Let's group-em-up as we go! kfhkh
