Choosing on the gui which sample to trigger
-
Hello,
I recently discovered Hise and I´m trying to make a VST made with different samples I took from an instrument.
There is one thing I would like it to do and I have been searching on the forum before posting, but I don´t really know what words to use.
Let me explain:
I have three different samples I´m going to use. I want them to be triggered by the same notes, but I want to be able to choose in the GUI of the instrument if I want sample 1, sample 2 or sample 3 to be triggered.
Should I use one sampler and three RR groups? Or should I be using three samplers?
I don´t expect anybody to tell me exactly how to do it (the most details provided will be highly appreciated though
), but It would really help me if someone told me how should I approach this. -
Ok instead of searching I did a forum sweep and I think I got my answer here:
https://forum.hise.audio/topic/202/multiple-instruments-single-project-or-multiple-projects/3So I guess I´ll try that

For your use case you are better to use 3 groups and a single sampler. Disable the default RR behavior and control the group selection via a script. You want your project to have as few samplers as possible because they take system resources even when not being actively used.

Ok, that makes sense, I'll try scripting
Thanks! -
The appropriate structure of your instrument depends on what you want to do with the different samples. If you need to route them to different effects, use 3 samplers, otherwise one sampler with 3 RR groups.
