## Presample Selected Track

### Files

* `src/js/m4l-presample-selected-track.js`
* `src/patches/Presample Selected Track.amxd`

### Description

When jamming with soft synths or hardware synths, MIDI notes are driving that synth. Recording into the instrument channel would therefore record the MIDI input rather than the audio output. When recorded MIDI is played back at a later date, the sound is often different to what was originally played, due to some combination of synth settings not being saved with the MIDI input (this is especially the case with hardware synths). In this instance it's better to capture the audio output rather than the MIDI input. For synths that don't have MIDI input, audio capture is the only option.

On the Push2, creation of a track-based audio (or MIDI) resampling track necessitates multiple button presses and two hands. This interrupts the creative flow as it requires extensive hand-eye coordination:

Note: This patch is functionally similar to ClyphX Pro's `INSAUDIO`/`INSMIDI`.
