[B]from the plug-in window(!)[\/B]. This means creating multi-samples in your recording session, on the fly...\n\nI will post a few audio examples later today, and HERE is a first screenshot to make you guys nervous. :-)\nThe official release is scheduled for early April, and iLok trials will be online on Wednesday.\n\n[B]Cheers, Dirk.[\/B]\n[URL=\"http:\/\/www.spl.info\"][IMG]http:\/\/spl.info\/software\/img\/DrumXchangerSPL.jpg[\/IMG][\/URL]"
