it is funny how old school #tracker's got it right but modern drum #plugin's do not: preset should be self-contained with the samples packed to the preset file.

I like ToguAudioLine's Drum, and more recently Klevgrand OneShot, but both carry this gltich in their arhitecture. Sitala on the other hand does support zip package with the preset file and samples so I use that to archive curated samples and then move them to appropriate drum plugin for playback.... It is no that inconvenient but feels a bit counter-productive tbh.

Bitwig's Drum Kit does the right thing but it is unusable in other DAW"s.

I bought to this only to save samples for archiving: https://decomposer.de/sitala/.

It is pretty good for the job and even has #linux version so workaround is not that bad. I have cross-platform distribution/archiving format from which I can quickly move to something else.

Also I think 16 pads is a good limit per archive. I recently curated all my sample folders and now I'm converting them to kits with 16 samples each that somehow fit together as a whole. Goal is to have all samples stored like this. Some have drums, some one shots, longer loops etc.
