I HAVE EXPERIMENTED FOR SOME TIME WITH SAMPLING DRUMS ,EFFECTS AND LAYERING..ETC.BUT FOR SOME REASON ITS QUITE FRUSTRATING TO MAKE A GOOD SOUNDING DRUM KIT OUT OF SAMPLED DRUMS WITH THE ASR-10.EVERYTIME I SAMPLE I MAKE SURE THE LEVELS ARE RIGHT AND STILL MY DRUMS SOUND LOW WITH NO PUNCH IN EM'I ALSO FIND MYSELF ALWAYS HAVING TO TURN THE (BOOST ON) ON MY DRUMS, WHICH IS SOMETHING I DONT WANT TO DO CAUSE BY DOING THAT I AM OVERPOWERING MY DRUMS.i KNOW YOU CAN STILL TURN THE VOULME DOWN AFTER THE BOOST, BUT YOU DONT HAVE TO BE DOING THAT IN THE FIRST PLACE.IS THEIR SOMETHING WRONG WITH MY SAMPLER'S ENGINE OR IS THIS JUST HOW THE ASR-10 IS?

Learn about the 'normalise gain function', then learn how to use a compressor. You'll be almost there.

THANKS...I WILL DO SO.
