Default Re: How do I import to Sampletank 2 from PT7?

Hello,

The basic idea is to use a Pro Tools MIDI track (so I can use the quantizing features in Pro Tools) to build rhythm patterns and loops using my own sounds.

I'm using a Marantz PMD 670 to record different sounds out in the world and then put them into a Pro Tools track where I edit them down to a size that will ultimately be a drum event in a rhythm pattern. I bounce the edited sounds to disk. So far so good. I"ve been trying to import these edited sounds into SampleTank 2 where I plan to use my MIDI controller to trigger these sounds and build rhythm tracks (back in Pro Tools) to be used with other material later. When I try to import these sounds into ST2 using the "import" button, I get to the place where I've saved the files, but the files are "grayed out", and ST2 won't import them and that's where I'm stuck. The sounds are 24 bit .wav files. Is this OK for ST2? Might there be other compatibility issues with ST 2 and files from Pro Tools that I need to address?

Am I going about this in the right way?

Thanks,

Jim Paisley
