There are various ways to change a channel's sample to another audio file on your hard drive. You can step through all the files in a folder quickly, jump directly to a file in a given folder, or specify a new file to load via a file dialog.

1. Click on the 'stepper' control to the left of the channel's file name. This will load the next file located in the same folder as the current sample's file. This feature is extremely useful for quickly previewing all the sounds in a given folder in context with the rest of your pattern.

1. You can jump straight to any audio file in the current sample's folder by click- holding on the file name and selecting the file you want to load in the pop-up menu that appears.

1. If you want to replace the current sample with one that isn't in the same folder, click on the 'Load File' button to the left of the stepper control. Select the file you want to load in the file dialog. The final version of iDrum will let you preview audio files from within this file dialog.
