Assign samples

Assigning is the bridge between browsing and performance. Preparing your pads for jamming and recording.

​

What this stage is for

At this stage, you turn interesting files into playable pads.

​

Core controls

• 1-9 and 0 trigger pads
• Left/Right (or h/l) move between channels
• Enter opens the selected channel detail or source selection flow

​

What happens when you assign a sound

A successful assignment gives you:

• a sample on a pad
• a channel in the mixer
• a source sound that can now be recorded into loops

The assigned sound persists with the session state unless you replace or clear it.

​

Good assignment strategy

Start with a minimal kit:

• 1 kick
• 2 hi-hat
• 3 snare
• 4 one loop, chord, bass, or melodic sample

This is usually enough to start recording.

​

Chops, trim, and per-channel overrides

Assignment is also where deeper sound preparation starts. After a sample is assigned, you can move into:

• trim workflows
• chop mode
• stem selection
• channel-level sound shaping

When you edit trim points, chop markers, or loop mode from a pad context, those changes apply only to that channel. The same file can play differently on another channel. See Per-Channel Playback for the full model.
