[Cubase] Source Clip Shorthand

[Harry Kopy]

I opened up an EZ Drum project that I started a couple months ago, and can’t figure out what the full names of the drum clips I used were, by looking at the shorthand names on the clips…for instance:

EP_Pb_G10_09H

What is the full name of this clip, so that I can go back and continue adding/editing similar style clips?

most likely, it’s…
EZD Pop/Rock > 4/4 Shuffle 50-130BPM Pop/Rock > Groove 10 > 09. Hats 8th Tight Closed Open/Ghost

first letter of each “word” (EZD Pop/Rock)
when there’s more than one that will fit that pattern, lower-case letters are appended, starting with “b”, then “c”, “d”, “e”, etc. (the second (b) entry for “Pop Rock”)
Groove 10
Numbers are, I think, taken as their full value (09. Hats 8th Tight Closed Open/Ghost)

Thanks, that helps. I’d imagine that once you add on a number of new sample kits and sounds, this could get confusing. Is there a list anywhere that matches all the clips with their respective shortcuts?

I think the idea is that it *won’t* be confusing when additional MIDI is added, actually.
The name is generated on-the-fly, so the formula will even work with third-party and user MIDI files (and so no, there’s not really any list).
