Hi,

I'm finding it time-consuming to record samples one at a time into my DAW.

Could we have a 'drag and drop' audio feature? Ideally, it would allow for dragging and dropping multiple files simultaneously.

Thanks,
Tim

What do you mean by "samples"? I find the "export pattern to audio file" works well for my purposes. (It's not drag and drop).

The ability to export each drum patch individually as wavs would be amazing for making drum racks.

The best way I've found to do this is to export the pattern as MIDI and then make a pattern with each drum hit on beat 1, mute the other 7 sounds and export each hit separately like this and use the MIDI pattern to drive it all.

I was just thinking about this today. It would be great to be able to just drag a pad from Microtonic into Ableton’s drum rack as a rendered sample, even if it was only a 16 bit, 44.100 rendering.

this is possible with microtonic. I use Reaper and I can drag and drop my kick out on a track in my DAW. Or in the Reaper Drumrack.

I’ll see if I can do it in Ableton.

You can export individual audio hits as far as I know, it is while since I used it.

New WAV export code allows for 24-bit audio export and improved WAV-file compatibility.

Export Pattern To Audio File
Use this menu item to export the currently selected pattern (or pattern chain) to a
“WAV file”. When you select this item, you will be presented with a “save dialog”
to choose further options for the export. The format choices are 16, 24, or 32-bit
resolution and a selection of sample rates between 32 and 192 kHz. The 32-bit
option will generate a so-called floating-point format with virtually infinite resolution and no clipping. You are also given a choice of how to treat the audio tail (i.e.,
what to do with the remaining audio after the pattern/pattern chain has played its
length). Select None to simply drop any remaining audio, select Append to append the audio (and cut the file after the sound has decayed to silence), or select
Loop to merge the tail into the beginning of the file so that it works well for looping.

Edit>>> so yes you have to mute the other sounds before export as far as I remember, the saved hits appear in my Reaper file browser and from there I can drag and drop anywhere.
