Question

Hey there Presonus Team. So I have been trying to get this feature request for the longest now but maybe someone who has close access to Presonus developers will see this and pass it on. There needs to be a marriage between Sample One XT and Impact XT. If anyone has seen how logics drum machine designer works. It’s like each drum pad is a quick sampler instrument. In Impact, each pad should be a Sample One Instrument. That way, when you create a pattern, and convert that pattern to a part, and explode the pitches to tracks, each track will be placed on a multisampled piano roll. That way you can play your 808s and hi hats up and down its own piano roll. I know that using automation can achieve this now but the workflow would be so much faster by marrying the two. Right now I have to make drum patterns in impact but I have to load 808s and hi hats separately in Sample One to achieve this. S1 is far beyond the other DAWs in my opinion, and adding this feature would be a GAME CHANGER in my opinion. Especially for hip hop and Trap producers. Someone please pass this feature request on. Thanks.

Answer 1

This would be a dope New Feature. Ableton does this so very well where you can convert samples from the sampler into the simpler and program different pitches like say the 808 kick as a bass line.

Allot of times the 808 kick or any short sample for that matter gets added to impact but no way to program different notes. The only way to achieve this in impact is by automating the pitch envelope but that’s not a realistic way to do this.

I’m with you EHall.

Answer 2

I totally agree  E Hall. Impact Sampler XXT would be  game changing.

Answer 3

Need this. Want this.

Answer 4

This would be super dope.

Answer 5

Yeah! This would be so cool! Please Presonus think about it ;)

Answer 6

I agree that this is needed for Studio One bigtime. This will shake up the game like “Hulk Smash”.

Answer 7

This Very Needed. Please PreSonus Remember The Hip Hop Community?

Answer 8

Yes, this would be a game-changer in SO5. Also, implement an Algorithm to scan Drumkit folders and put them in specific pads like Argonaut Atlas 1.4,  1 for kicks, 2 for snares 3 for claps, etc.... And I would love for you to add 3rd Party integration to work with Note Fx, Like Scaler 2, Cthulu, Chord Prism, and Captain Plugins like Universal Audio Luna. I love Studio One it is great DAW. It is the King of Workflow and these improvements would definitely help Producers workflow. Below is a Wishlist video from Ivan Calderon, who has a big following using Studio One 5.

Answer 9

+1

Logic with the new DMD has best of both worlds. you can play it as a Drum Kit or individual samples at full pitch range without any converting.

Answer 10

This would be amazing. I was hoping for this when I seen them implement a step sequencer into the daw back in V4. There seems to be a blind spot to modern hip hop production workflows when it comes to making these solutions. Hopefully we can get some more votes!

Answer 11

Yes this is what we need! Also a fade in/out in SampleOne and Impact would be so useful and easy to get implemented

Answer 12

I could not agree more! I love Studio One but this would be the best possible addition for simplifying the process. Even Explode Pitch to Tracks doesn't allow for this type of workflow! Huge oversight made even more apparent when Bolo just called S1 out on it last week. He was working with Studio One and really liking it but went back to Logic since it allows for an easier workflow for beat design. Comments start at 7:45 --



Hopefully we can get this in ASAP!

Answer 13

Still nothing has been done in this direction.

Answer 14

Why not?

In this case you would have more filters to use, one for the sample and one inside impact.

Speaking about the filters:

Sample One XT and impact should have a notch filter, modulated notch filters are a basic thing I use. This is the reason why I dont use Sample One XT or Impact. I use Battery 4.

Answer 15

This will indeed be a game changer , Not only for hip hop and trap. but anyone that programs drums in any genre will be benefited.

Answer 16

+1! I really want this in Studio One. It would be so convenient to build drum loops with this feature, like in Ableton or Logic Pro!

Answer 17

It would be great to be able to change the grid layout of Impact xt from 4x4 to 8x8 or 16x16 so it could be mapped to a controller and used as a clip launcher.  

Impact does a pretty good job of this but is greatly limited by 4x4 grid.

Answer 18

Oh Yeees we need that feature
