-- the simplest VST sampler

the simplest VST sampler

ok, this is what I want, I have Battery sampler, but i find it too much hassle to use (I KNOW ITS A PRETTY EASY SAMPLER TO USE)

i want a VST so simple, u import the sample, attach the sampler to a channel and viola..

preferably a sampler that only holds ONE sample, and that automaticly pitches the sample due to where on the keyboard/piano roll u press..

free, or not, please, there must be such a thing

Hey. Heres a pretty decent list . My personal recomendation is to use VSampler because of its wide range of format support. Most of these are single shot samplers but some are multitimbral but ones that arent meant for drums (meaning you will be able to have pitch control).

I've used Tobybear's Helios, it does just what you want, it has the capability to load one sample with an ADSR envelope and some other simple functions.... I can't remember if it supports looping though...

thanks Low Profile and Darksword, ill give u a lightsaber for all those links

Ableton's built in sampler, (descriptively titled) Simpler, is exactly what you're looking for. Unfortunately it's not available as a VST

imo the best thing to do it, run fl as vst/rewire. that way you will have a full sampler and ofcourse the choise between step-sequenser & piano roll without the need for lots of vst samplers that kill your cpu.

Eh... He asks for something simple, and you suggest running fl as a sampler?

yea cuz i think that fl is the best thing there is for drums. its his job to know if its good for him, thank you. it was just a suggestion anyway lol

something excactly like simpler what was I had in mind, I`ve also tried using FL as rewire/VST, but it kills the arrangement overview for me.. hence i dont use that solution..

I tried the Todybear Helios, and it was excactly what i was looking for, only thing that the preview button didnt work, so that one goes out the window too..

I also looked at the V-Sampler, but way too complicated..

thanks for suggestions everyone

just out of curiosity, why do you need such a sampler for?

subtle mate get the sr-202 i use it and it rocks so basic and mint i love it.

i need it mainly for my drums, see, i program my drums using raw audiofile in cubase, but sometimes when experimenting with patterns etc. a sampler can come in handy.. but i want to be able to have a "little" one channel sampler, which i can apply effects easily and that simply plays the sound through MIDI..

i tried Halion, and Battery back in the days, but i felt that the sound was weakened and it was a hassle to add own effects and stuff..

so, basically all i want is a plugin which makes me play a sample through MIDI, and nothing else..
