Exporting "one shot" drum beats -ACID Product Family

Subject:Exporting "one shot" drum beats Posted by: xlove1969 Date:3/3/2003 7:47:07 PM I have the Acid loops CD Industrial Toolkit. It has some great "one shot" drum kicks that want to import into a Cubase song. I can't get the drum samples to export into wav files. After exporting, the files never show up in the target directory. Also, the progress status window that briefly appears when exporting never comes up. Does anyone have any ideas how to export these very small one shot beats?

Check cubase so that it will read wavs. Acid loops and one-shots are just wav files with a little header on the front end. They can be read by any program that reads wav files.

You could also set the Loop Region over a specific portion of the One-shot tracks, solo them and then bounce down (CTRL+M). If the phrase is short enough (30 seconds or less by default), it should turn into a Loop. (You might want to ensure there's no root note assigned to the Loop as well, as most percussion has no definite pitch.) HTH, Iacobus
