TL Drum Rehab # of Zones

The # of Zones pop-up menu lets you select the number of Velocity Zones into which you can load samples. Use multiple Zones to load samples of different dynamics, but use only as many Velocity Zones as necessary to layer dynamically differentiated samples for play back at varying velocities. For example, using four Zones, you can load in, from left (quiet) to right (loud), a p snare sample, an mf snare sample, a f snare sample, and an ff snare sample. During playback, each Zone is triggered only by the corresponding amplitude of the detected transient so that a soft hit on the original snare track triggers the p snare sample and a loud snare hit triggers the f or ff snare sample.

When using only one or a just a few Velocity Zones, you may want to use the Dynamics control to affect the playback velocity by the detected amplitude on the original drum track. The Dynamics slider controls the amplitude (velocity) of the triggered sample relative to the original detected amplitude. When a more natural sounding drum track is desired, using multiple Velocity Zones more closely models the sound of acoustic drums at different dynamic levels. For more information on the Dynamics control, see Playback Controls.

TL Drum Rehab lets you have up to 16 Velocity Zones, and up to 4 Clips (samples) per Zone. Using slightly different sounds on multiple Clips per Zone adds a greater degree of realism by adding variety to the sound (see Clips).
