Is there a way to change banks in Sampling mode?

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Hi - I am new user to the Maschine Studio currently - my question is surrounding the ability to switch between sampling banks as it were. To my current understanding - in SAMPLING mode - under SLICE mode - when holding SHIFT - we have the option to switch between BANK 1 - BANK 2 and so on. However when I wish to record a sequence - to my current understanding - I need to be in PAD MODE and I currently select KEYBOARD to have access to my chops - of which I currently have 32 chops as an example.

My question here is - when I wish to record a sequence is it possible to switch to BANK 2 for example to access chops 17-32 as currently, by default when I wish to access chops 17-32 I must use the OCTAVE+ function which only gives access to chops 13-28, is there a DIRECT way to access chops 17-32?

Please see screenshots below if you wish to further understand my question:

Thank you and please let me know if you require further clarification or if this has been asked before - please could you point me to the resource as I was unable to find it when I initially searched.

Probably the best way for what you are trying to achieve is changing the way you “distribute” your chops.

This can be done in 2 ways:

The first is the one you are already using (all chops are in one pad and you access them in keyboard mode).

The second one (maybe best suited to what you want) is to assign every chop to a different pad (it’s in the options when you save the sample you edited in sampling mode). In this way, switching from bank 1 to bank 2 is just one button away. And it also gives you many other advantages (i.e. you can modify every single chop independently (see pitch shifting) or add different fxs to different chops)

It’s very easy: when you chopped everything and you use APPLY… instead of selecting one pad you select one group (be aware that if you select the same group where you recorded the sample, it will be overwritten if the same pad is used by a chop)

Once they are assigned to the pads, you can select them all and assign them to a choke group to mutually mute each others (in PAD MODE screen)

And also change the polyphony to avoid a pad to overlap himself (in PLUG-IN screen)

Oh, you mean Mono in 3rd Page of the Slice Menu.

Tbh I never noticed that either, apparently, it's a time-saving option, according to the manual: "The Sample Slicer Mono option when activated automatically sets the Voice and Choke Group of all sample slices to 1 when slicing to a Group."

Not relevant to OP's issue of Maschine not actually having real 'Banks' (Like MPC's for example have) but good to know, this will def save me some time as I've always did it manually.

Ah…ok…I’m not the only one discovering new things after 10+ years 😂😂😂

BTW: it seems it is working also when assigning to a single pad. The “instrument” is set to monophonic, therefore…no overlapping

As from my tests, that Mono at page 3 automatically does all the typical procedures for all slices:

sets polyphony to 1, and

all pads from that group go to Choke group 1.
