Structure multi-timbral patch question

[jeff]

Hi,
I'm trying to make a Structure patch for Tony from a really great kit
he recorded at Stagg Street Studios. I'm having a conceptual problem about
the best way to structure (no pun intended) the patch hierarchy.

What I have are:

For each drum .. one kit sample (kick, snare, HH, etc. with individual mics (sometimes
two .. kick in / kick out ... snare top / snare btm. etc), OH mics and Room mics.

I've approached this as:

1 "Part" patch .. single note zones for each of the instruments
1 "Room" patch .. single note zones for each of the room tones for each instrument.
1 "OH" patch .. single note zones for each of the OH tones for each instrument.

So when C4 is triggered, the Kick inside, Kick outside, Room and OH samples all fire simultaneously.

All accept input from midi A1

Each have individual bus outputs (so direct, room and OH can be mixed independently).

Is this the best way to do it?

I noticed the Structure "built-in" patches have a single patch the seems to marry all
of this together .. but I'm at a loss for how they've done this.

Any help would be appreciated .. I know samplers in general pretty well but
this seems like fairly advanced usage to me and I'm struggling to figure out how
to do the mapping.

Thanks in advance!

Hello Jeff,

I think thats the best way to do it! it keeps everything clear and simple and you know where every sound is coming from and it makes it really quick to use the patch modules to make changes in level or output etc.

I have a follow up question on Structure. I can't get ... say a snare room sample.. to play for the whole length of the sample, when triggered from a midi track made from the Massey DTM app. Does anyone know who this is done? I tried making the release full open... but that doesn't work for me.. I always have to use drumagog for this part and would prefer to use structure.

ok... i found it... a "one shot" button to toggle in the middle of the part edit window.
