CHAPTER 22. LIVE INSTRUMENT REFERENCE 310

22.3.1 Multisampling

Before going on, let's introduce the concept of multisampling. This technique is used to

accurately capture the complexity of instruments that produce dynamic timbral changes.

Rather than rely on the simple transposition of a single recorded sample, multisampling

captures an instrument at multiple points within its critical sonic range. This typically means

capturing the instrument at different pitches as well as different levels of emphasis (played

softly, moderately, loudly, etc.). The resulting multisample is a collection of all the individually

recorded sample les.

Sampler is designed to let you approach multisampling on whatever level you like: You can

load and play multisample presets, like those from Ableton's Essential Instrument Collection,

import multisamples from third-party vendors, or create your own multisamples from scratch.

Importing Third-Party Multisamples

To import a third-party multisample, navigate to the le in Live's File Browser and double-

click to import it into the Live Library. (Note that AKAI-formatted CD-ROMs require one

step before this can be done  please see the next section.)

Importing will create new Sampler presets, which you can nd in the Device Browser under

Sampler/Imported. Live automatically brings up the Device Browser to show the new

presets, ready to drag in, sort, rename or delete.

Note that some multisample les will be converted to Instrument Rack presets that contain

several Sampler instances used to emulate the original more accurately.

For all multisample formats except Apple EXS24/GarageBand and Kontakt, Live will import

the actual audio data into the Library, where they will appear as new samples (found under

Samples/Imported). This means the new Sampler presets will work regardless of whether

the original multisample le is still around.

To import Apple EXS24/GarageBand and Kontakt multisamples, Live will create new Sampler

presets that reference the original WAV or AIF les. This means that removing the original

WAV or AIF les will render the new Sampler presets useless. Live's File Manager offers the

option to collect and save these external samples into the Library.
