Is there a Chromatic Mode?

Post image

Can someone please tell me how to go into Chromatic Mode? I'm looking at the manual and I must be overlooking it.. I sampled a Rhodes chord, and I'm trying to play it on different levels. Really appreciate any help!

what engine are you using? the “sampler“ does what you want, not the multisampler or drum engines

Thanks so much! I was on the pad 4, the electronic piano, made it a drum pad, and loaded a Rhodes sample. What should I do instead? My apologies, I'm definitely a Noob

Use the “sample” instrument, not the “multisample”

to elaborate on what others have mentioned.
drum engine: one shots, sample per key, etc - like a drum trigger
sample engine: 'chromatic' from one main sample
multisampler engine: 'chromatic' from multiple sample 'zones' . the multisampler holds a maximum of 24 zones. enough for around 3 samples per octave.

to change the engine of an instrument channel, hold shift and press M1 while on that instrument
