Can the samples in Abbey Road Drums/Drummer be edited?

I was using the kick drum from Abbey Road 60s Drums for a track, and I discovered clicks in two samples. The new Drummer sounds pretty different even with the same INIT settings, so I wanted to stay with Abbey Road Drums for now. I can see in the waveform that I could just put a fade in the sample using the wave editor, but it doesn't seem to let me! Is this because it's a protected library or something like that? All I need is to do two simple fade ins. Does anyone know if the fades are possible, or am I just going to have to remap samples and such?

 

You can't load protected samples in anything else. Don't know about fades. Did you try to change the start time? I haven't noticed clicks in 60s drums so far.

 

Nope, you can't.

 

You could just change the start time of those samples, then resave the instrument.

 

The problem is with the felt beater velocity 17 round robins 2 and 4 ... the sample actually starts with the signal at above zero (sorry i don't know the term), so starting a little later in the sample would have the same result. Kontakt's internal wave editor wouldn't let me add a fade. Anyway, there wasn't anyway to fade the sample so I just had the zone access a different round robin sample. Thanks for the replies I wonder why the new Abbey Road Drummer sounds so different ...

 

I think they can sound different because of different individual instruments levels in channels between versions. I checked few direct mics with all effects switched off and they sound pretty the same for me.

 

You can make the sample start later, just put the start on a zero point. These milliseconds barely make a difference.

 

Yeah that what I was trying to say. The samples themselves don't start at a zero point and that's what was causing the click. Anyway I just had it access a different variation sample that didn't click, problem solved. Thank you for the replies
