I'm not sure if I understand what you mean, but I believe you can just use the so-called Resampling feature to achieve what you want

Make a new kit to sample to. Treat the first pad a 'blank' - just load any whatever sample, then go to the Sound editor and set the OSC1 type to IN.
Then enter a C3 note, and make it a 'drone' (hold the leftmost pad as you enter a note, and press the rightmost pad).
Hit PLAY, and run your audio through - now you can press Shift + Record whenever you wish to sample as you go

WAV, no aif or mp3

Stereo and mono. Native format = 44kHz 24bit, but will play anything up to 96kHz 32bit

Dope trix. Quick mafs, skrrr skrrrrr POOM!

That's good to know, thanks. Although it seems that only affects the Deluge's pads, and a midi keyboard will still play them with varying velocity. Can I add a velocity tag to the sample name to force it to always play with a constant velocity?

Okay, instead of playing a second sample upon release, is there a way to play two different samples when a pad or key is pressed? Like if I wanted to play two different stops on a harpsichord simultaneously? Or do I need to merge them into one sample on my PC in advance?

To turn off a preset's velocity sensitivity, enter the Volume parameter (Master volume) of the clip in question, then enter the Velocity mod source that will be blinking to indicate the volume is patched to the velocity mod source.
Turn the depth to 0.

You can use OSC2 browse (to load separate sampleset to OSC2)

Oh you mean you wanna mute the MIDI notes! Can't do that currently anyway.
But why don't u just change the midi channel and use the same pads? It's fast on the Launchpad pro, I use it too

I'm not seeing any of this at all, I have 3 Deluges all over 4.0 and I'm most definitely not seeing "5 times out of 10" failures.

As said, its hard to fix potential bugs if there's no way to replicate them.

But this is definitely something out of the ordinary. Maybe you should send Ian a mail directly, ian@synthstrom.com

See what Ian said about "easy to implement".

About the 128 vs 50 steps, Rohan just confirmed that the parameters do indeed have 128 distinct midi values even though the Deluge deals in 50. The logic behind that is simply less numbers to scroll through with the select knob - the gold knobs still deal in the full range.

I respect your dedication @Icoustik , but please just read your post yourself. You are talking about a professional machine. And in FW 3 there is still the serious decision to reduce 128 steps to 50 so you can't fade in e.g. noise because it bumps in because people are too lazy to scroll 128 steps? Come on. Lot people were asking for 128 steps in this forum for a long time. There are a lot of possibilities to "shift down" 128 to half like 64 what would be logic if you really need it. Or why not make it configurable, when many people asking for it.

And about midi implementation, that's quite complex as a standard midi implementation wouldn't work since the Deluge is so flexible and used differently by different people. Eventually, we'll surely get a smart solution, but it definitely isn't simple or straightforward to do.

It's not that there need to be made a midi implementation, it is already there. It is only to complete the midi definition. You can find a lot information in this forum too. As well from programmers.

Look I don't want to start an argument here. That is absolutely not my intention! And I highly respect the wonderful work of Rohan and the beautiful design of the Deluge. 🌻

I'm just asking to focus on improving important existing features the same way like on developing more great funky features. Both are good and both are important in different ways for different people.

You don't seem to understand. The gold knobs produce 128 steps, the SELECT knob with the same parameter number when on screen is 50. Get what I'm saying? So if you use the gold knobs or an external midi knob, it IS indeed 128 steps, and you can choose whether you want to edit the parameter with the select knob, a gold knob or a midi controller.
