  • you can set an external sample folder. To do so click on the "Menu" button in the sample file screen. Here you can set the external sample folder, and also toggle between Punch's sample folder and this external sample folder.


  • Be aware Punch only stores the paths to samples not the samples themselves, if you try to load in a preset using an external sample on a different machine, you'll need to set this external folder path to point to a similarly named folder with the sample in the same position on this other machine. Also sample names are limited to 64 characters, so you might have problems with very long sample paths & names, so it's best to set the external sample folder as high up the path hierarchy as feasible.

    If you are creating presets to be used on other machines, you still should use Punch's sample folders to store samples, because using samples in these folders will ensure the presets work on all machines without having to mess around without people having to set the external sample folders.

  • mute & solo functions. In the mixer screen, if you click on the drum labels you can turn on / off mute or solo any drum , or reset all the drums to normal status.

  • other small changes and fixes.


  • a few new presets inside Dance bank 2, FilmScore and VoltageDisciple bank.
