I want to sample some synth patches i made from logic´s esm and es2, i use cubase so i would like to load em on halion or cronox. Anyway i don´t kno wich would be the right way to do it.
Should i sample every note, 1 note(c)per octave all at full amplitude. I need some advices please. |

i do that sometimes with esm, i dont sample every note... only a few and then stretch them to cover more keys in halion.

Yep , it would be the best way to do it.
Because of the quality ,with one note u couldnt reach same as with the full sampled notes, cause if you start streching the same C note higher or lower you loose the quality,one note would go max for 2 or 3 semitones higher and maybe 3 to 4 lower.
I fear nothing, so I will remember myself.

i'd say it depends on the patch and its intended pitch (in which octave(s) your melody lives in). i sampled some dnb bassline patch i made with a synth, such that i could further tweak it in kontakt. i used 3 semitone steps and streched the zones. it worked well.
you can try to use steppings of 3 semitones and if it works, you had less work to do than with 1 semitone steps  |

Stepping semitones? i don´t understand very well, im just interested in 1 octave lets say c1 to c2, i was told to sample 4 notes at every pitch and get the ones that have the best attack. |

hi brain hacked, yes, if you have a "lively" instrument/patch which you want to sample, it is a good idea to sample it several times and take the one with the best attack. good idea!
with "steppings" i meant how many times (when running from c1 to c2 in your case) do you want to sample your instrument/patch.
for example: sample it every 3 semitones would give you: c1, d#1, f#1, a1, c2. |
