Karriem Riggins Drums - Making a custom preset / kit from scratch?

Thanks Jeremy, much appreciated. Not being able to add sounds to "clean" pads is really slowing down my workflow, and after working with it some more, I've found that there are some pads on some presets that just don't sound right even when I match the settings it had on one pad to another pad, i.e. the same sound with the same settings on pad 3 sounds different than the same sound with the same settings on pad 7. It's honestly been a bit frustrating at times.

@EvilDragon This is definitely helpful information, but not the information I was looking for. The settings in the red circle in the image below are specifically what I'm talking about.

Even when I switch the pad's sample to "None" and make it a blank pad, it still retains those settings when I load another sample on to it, causing the sample to sound anywhere from slightly different to completely different depending on the settings. I even just tried saving a snapshot with pads set to none and then reloading Kontakt and the snapshot to see if maybe that would default everything, but no dice. I just want to load samples on to pads and have them sound the way they sound when I'm previewing them in the sample browser. It's crazy to me that I seem to be the only person that thinks this functionality should be built in from the start. Like, it seems pretty basic to me that you should be able to load a sample on to a pad and have that sample sound the way it sounded when you previewed it. If I can't do that within Kontakt, at least let me get at the samples themselves so I can use them with Ableton's Drum Rack or something. As it stands I have to meticulously adjust every little setting on every pad I change and hope I can get the sample to sound like what I heard in the preview browser. Sometimes I can't even get close no matter what I do. It's maddening, especially since this is the first time I've shelled out a decent amount of money on drums. Granted, I know $50 is nothing compared to some other sample libraries, but it still sucks to feel like I wasted money. It's just not worth the time and aggravation for me to use these the way they are.

That's not exactly a solution either. Ctrl-clicking some of those macros resets them to "default", or 0, while some of them get cranked to 100% (like Spring and Room, for example). It still requires me to go through and fine tune everything, especially since attack and release get 0'd and then the pad just doesn't make a sound at all. It makes absolutely no sense to me that parameters like pitch, attack, and release aren't loaded on a sample-by-sample basis. I shouldn't have to play with things like the attack and release to try to get samples to match with their previews. It's insanity. Please don't take this the wrong way either, I very much appreciate that you're trying to help me here, it's just frustrating that I'm even having to deal with this. The more I try to use this kit, the more it's UI functionality just absolutely baffles me. It's almost like they don't want people to make their own kits with it, even though "craft your own custom kits" is one of the features advertised. It almost feels intentionally difficult. I should've just listened to my gut and waited till I had the money to buy Tympo...

I apologize for the tone of my last post, I really do appreciate that you're trying to help out here. I've tried every combination of the things you've suggested in every order I can think of, I literally cannot get these samples to sound like they do in the sample browser. Looking at the sample browser in your screen shot, it doesn't seem like you're using this specific drum pack, and I'm thinking this just may behave differently or have more options than the one you're using. Either way, thanks for taking the time to reply.
