Samplv1
Samplv1 is a stand-alone and LV2 sample trigger. It can take any sound and manipulate it in ways you probably never thought possible.
Strengths [Weaknesses]
Flexible
Samplv1 isn't just a sample trigger, it's a synthesizer that uses samples as its basis. Take any sample you have and load it into Samplv1 to manipulate every aspect of the sound.
Weaknesses [Strengths]
Singular
Samplv1 is not a sample mapper. It will not take a GIG file and map it to the keys of your controller. It's a sample trigger and synthesizer.
Install
Install samplv1 from http://studioware.org, from the audio/samplers group.
Usage
Launch Samplv1 as a stand-alone application from the K Menu or from a terminal:
$ samplv1_jack
It is also an LV2 plugin, available within most any DAW of your choice.
Samplv1 is an intuitive application; double-click on the sample panel to load a sample. Offset the pitch of the sample with the Sample dial, activate or de-activate looping, and manipulate the envelope and LFO of the soundwave with the GUI controls.
The second tab of Samplv1 features global effects.
Sessions
If you are using Samplv1 as a plugin, your DAW manages all of your session data for you.
If you are using it as a stand-alone application, then sessions can (and should) be saved along with any project data used in your current musical composition. The drop-down menu at the top of the Samplv1 window serves as the Save and Load interface.
To save a preset, type in a name and click the Save button.
To load a preset, click the Open button.
