trouble with long samples in Battery

    I'm having some trouble with long samples in Battery. I am triggering samples with pads from a midi controller. For some samples, triggering a cell with a midi controller plays the whole sample. For other samples I need to hold down the midi pad or the sample stops playing the moment I let go (this seems to be more likely with longer samples, like 5 seconds or more). How do I control Battery so that a sample either plays from beginning to end by just hitting a pad or will only play as long as the pad is held?

    Try changing the cells Volume Envelope to AHD, to define how long a sample is played for adjust the Hold & Decay knobs.

    To have the sample stop playing when you release a key use the AHDSR envelope & turn the Release time down to 0

    This is simple. Select the pad you want to play entirely from beginning to end. Go to Setup and activate "Latch". Now you can trigger the sound with the key and stop it by pressing the key again.
