Strike MultiPad Feature Update: v1.3 •
Sample ManagerYou can now browse, play and delete any samples saved to Strike MultiPad's internal storage. You can also export samples from the internal storage to an external USB drive. To access the Sample Manager, press this Utility button, then press F6-Backup to open the Backup menu and select Sample Manager.
•
Save/Load User Kits with SamplesYou can now save and load User Kits with the samples used in those kits. This allows you to create a complete backup of the User Bank, which can then also be used on another Strike MultiPad.
To save User Kits with samples:
1.Press the Utility button, then press F6-Backup to open the Backup menu and select Save All User Kits.
2.A window will appear to warn of any potentially long save times, depending on the length and size of the samples used in the kit. Select OK to continue or select CANCEL to return to the Backup menu.
3.On the next screen, you can name the backup file. Use the main encoder to edit the name and then press F5-Save to continue and save the file, or press F6-Exit to cancel and return to the Backup menu.
NOTE:Many USB external hard drives and flash drives use the FAT32 file system, which has a file size limit of 4 GB.
Although unlikely, this means a kit and associated samples that exceeds 4 GB cannot be backed up in this way. We recommend checking the samples in the kit to make sure, for example, they are properly trimmed to remove excess silence.
To load User Kits with samples, press the Utility button, then press F6-Backup to open the Backup menu and select Load All User Kits.
NOTE:
Loading All User Kits will overwrite the entire current User bank of kits and replace it with the kits and samples from your USB drive. This action cannot be undone, so we recommend creating multiple backup files as necessary and using caution when loading kits.

Start Click for Loop and Alternate Playback ModesYou can now set the metronome to automatically turn on when you play a pad set to Loop or Alternate playback mode. If you hit the pad again, or if the sound ends, the metronome will stop and will restart from Beat 1 when reactivated.
To enable this feature, press the Sound button, then press F4-Mode and adjust the Playback Mode setting.

Metronome Downbeat ResetThe metronome will now restart from Beat 1 whenever it is turned on, either by the Start Click feature or by pressing the Metronome button.
UPDATE 6/10/20"Many USB external hard drives and flash drives use the FAT32 file system, which has a file size limit of 4 GB.

It is mentioned that "Many USB external hard drives and flash drives use the FAT32 file system, which has a file size limit of 4 GB. Although unlikely, this means a kit and associated samples that exceeds 4 GB cannot be backed up in this way"..
I tested and you still can only use a FAT32 drive.
"a kit and associated samples that exceeds 4 GB cannot be backed up in this way"Kits and wav files are NOT backed up/saved individually/separately
The entire bank of kits with samples are converted and saved as a .bkf file.
So the total of
ALL kits and
ALL samples must not exceed 4 GB.
Exporting samples does in fact export as wav and is saved in a folder.
However..you can only export USER samples..
Loops made using FACTORY Presets/Kits/Live/Samples or USER Presets/Kits/Live/Samples (using the LOOPER Feature) are saved as USER samples.
The Loop is displayed under USER samples and plays back,including in Sample Manager, and exports successfully as a wav file
USB AUDIO is fixed and Bi -Directional STREAMING Audio is now working in iOS 13.https://www.strikemultipad.com/index.html#downloadsUPDATE 6/22/20Feature Update v1.3 Using the Sample Manager Feature Update v1.3 Saving and Loading User Kits with Samples Feature Update v1.3 Using "Start Click" for Loop and Alt Playback Modes
