Crash cymbals in a Layer sound clippy but are fine on their own

Baddox	Date: August 1, 2005 @ 1:11 AM (I have FL Studio 5) I have a layer set up with all my drum samples each assigned to the appropriate note so I can import drums from midis I've made previously into the layer's piano roll. Now, each channel with a crash sounds fine when previewed, but any time a crash plays from the layer itself it sounds very clippy, regardless of the velocity of the hit or the channel volume. It doesn't appear to do this on the other drums samples (ride, snare, etc.) but it could just be because it's not noticeable on the more staccato samples. I've checked to make sure all of the channel settings for each drum sample are the same and they are, but for some reason those darn crashes are terribly clippy. Anyone know how to remedy this, or perhaps a better way to import drums from a midi into FL?
monkvolcano	Date: August 1, 2005 @ 1:18 AM wow.. that's a tough one.. did you try writing the stuff out yourself in the piano roll and seeing if the crash clips?... if it's ok when you write the notes out yourself, i bet there's some weird value of the midi you're importing.. i would double click on the note in the piano roll and look at all the values you have control over. when you say clippy, do you mean it's kind of granulated, or distorted, or it just cuts out to soon? so did that help any.. probably not..
Baddox	Date: August 1, 2005 @ 1:34 AM I think the problem is only while previewing in FL. I exported to MP3 and it seemed fine, so I feel a bit silly. Still strange that it's like that. And by clippy I mean it sounds like the patch itself is clipping in "preamp" (figuratively speaking) so it's always distorted regardless of volume. But, it looks like it's resolved, or at least, I can export so I'm happy.
