Quick Sampler in Logic Pro for iPad
Quick Sampler lets you quickly create sampler instruments consisting of a single audio file. You can drag a sample or Apple Loop from the Browser into Quick Sampler.
Quick Sampler offers independent control of pitch, filter, and amp parameters, coupled with flexible sampler modes and modulation options. If you’re new to samplers, synthesizers and the concepts behind modulation generators, such as LFOs and envelopes, filters, and other components, see Intro to synthesizers.
Quick Sampler is inserted in instrument channel strips and is useful as both a playable instrument and an audio manipulation utility. You can use it in a number of ways in your productions, such as experimentation with Live Loops.
To add Quick Sampler to your project, choose it from the Instrument > Sample submenu in an instrument channel strip or the Plug-ins area. See Intro to plug-ins.
In the Quick Sampler interface, you can see two primary sections:
The upper section contains all sample-related functions, including the sampler mode, the waveform display, and analysis, playback, mapping, and other options. See Choose a Quick Sampler mode.
The lower section contains two LFOs and Pitch, Filter, and Amp panes that each have an independent envelope. A dedicated Mod Matrix pane provides extensive modulation options. See Quick Sampler Mod Matrix pane.
