aye, new here, looks like this place isnt too terribly dead, so ill ask. I'm in the business of making jungle, and madtracker seems to be the only tracker ive used thats straight-forward enough to make the transition from FL. my question is, if im using a sampled loop, such as an amen sample, is there a way to place notes in a pattern that would jump to certain points in the sample, like the crash or the double kicks, etc? and if not, what is a way to chop the sample for individual use without having to do it manually in audacity or something like that, if any? thanks in advance

If I understood right you want to assign separate samples for some different keys?
thats called multisample instrument. Look for this the .XI format and FastTracker 2 help how to create multisample instruments and you get the idea. in MT2 its basically the same.

Hi, I guess there isn`t a easy way to map every sample to a key. building a multisample, can be very time consumiong. but there is another way... imo the easiest method is sample-offset as a tracker command 90 XXYY X Divide sample in X parts Y Go to division Y here is a demo mt2: http://www.filedropper.com/amenslices here i divided the sample in 8 parts "90 08 00" and call the parts 00 - 07 forward and backward it is important that the sample is cuttet to exactly the 8 beats. but that`s easy doable inside the madtracker-sample editor.

90 XXYY
X Divide sample in X parts
Y Go to division Y

here is a demo mt2:

here i divided the sample in 8 parts "90 08 00" and call the parts 00 - 07 forward and backward

thanks for the reply. i have a question, when you say "cut" what are you referring to? do i have to designate the sections for MT to cut before the command will work? and if so, how do i do that?

it`s important that the sampledata of the loaded sample only contains whole beats. because madtraker divides the beat in even sized slices.

in the Example above I loaded Amen-break as a sample and trimmed the sample down to only the 8 beats of interest. (with the internal sample-editor "mark"->"cut") so i can divide to 8 slices. we can keep a longer sample and divide into more slices if desired.
