Samples on the pads

Load your own audio on a pad and set level, pan, tune, envelope, mode and choke.

Any pad can play your own audio: a beat, a fill, an effect, a spoken line.

Load a sample

  1. On the Drums screen, tap the pad (an empty one opens the editor) or tap Edit.
  2. In Type, keep Audio.
  3. Tap Load a sample… and pick the file: WAV, AIFF, M4A, MP3 or FLAC.
  4. The pad takes the file's name. To change it, edit Name.

The app copies the audio inside it: your original file stays untouched. The grid at the top of the editor switches pads and plays a preview.
