Example Excerpt of Sampling Clavia Nord Drum 3P Preset A1 / A2

Practical Notes on Sampling the Nord Drum 3P

  • Set the two Soundcard Inputs which are connected with the two Audio Outputs of the Nord Drum 3P to full left and full right
  • Set the Nord Drum 3P Pads Threshold to 5 ( Otherwise it will play unwanted Notes if it is set to 4 or lower )

Zoom L-12

  • Set the two Soundcard Inputs which are connected with the two Audio Outputs of the Nord Drum 3P to 0 dB on your Soundcard
  • Set the Main Volume on the Nord Drum 3P to 50 % ( Poti shows to the top ) otherwise there will be Clipping in some Recordings

MOTU UltraLite MK3

  • Set the two Soundcard Inputs which are connected with the two Audio Outputs of the Nord Drum 3P to +5 dB on your Soundcard ( If you have Issues with low Level on the MOTU make a Factory Reset )
    1. Push the Setup/PARAM knob until the LCD screen reads "UL Hybrid Setup".
    2. Turn the Setup/PARAM knob until the LCD reads "Factory Defaults Push [VALUE]". Push the Value knob.
    3. The LCD screen will read: "Are you sure? Push [VALUE]". Push the Value knob.
    4. The LCD screen will read: "Initializing", and the LCD screen will return to "METER 48".
  • Set the Main Volume on the Nord Drum 3P to 100 % ( Poti fully rotated right )

Example Recording Excerpt

Todo:

  • Add Scripts to create Native Instruments Kontakt Instruments with the recorded Samples

    Unfortunately NI doesn't provide an API for Kontakt so I need to use pywinauto / pyautogui

    Update

    • This is now possible with NI's Creator Tools
