I figured I'd revive this thread instead of making a new one.
I've got my motif going midi i/o via my firepod. FL gets midi data just fine, and I got it to where it sends sample data back to the motif and it plays back through the motif, rather than through my laptop. This is all fantastic, exactly what I want.
But my current problem is that my whole keyboard only controls one sample at a time. I click the kick sample, and I have 76 keys of kicks, of differing pitches, as you'd expect. What I want to do is assign each sample in FL to a single key on my motif, so that it plays like a normal keyboard drumset. I have no idea how to do this, and the manual is very little help.
Is there an easier way to go about this? I like FL's interface as far as beat editing goes, but I want to make input less tedious.
Puce?
News: I figured pretty much everything out, largely due to help from Futureboy. I have a template with nskit layed out on the keyboard like a normal drumset, with full effects, levels, panning, and compression already done.
Wild goose: can I make the hihat closed and pedal triggers stop the hihat open sample, as a normal keyroll would do? That's pretty much all I'm missing. I can use a volume envelope to stop the open trigger, but the envelope is timed, so it's tempo sensitive, and not a true trigger.
More news: Check it out, here's a zip file containing all the samples and settings. All you should have to do is open the zip file with FL (don't unzip it, just open it), and make sure your controller is set up right. Let me know how it works for you:
