Hey guys I'm a total noob to this program and I have to do an assignment at uni using max 5.

I was wondering how I can use my midi keyboard to trigger drum samples.

I've already created 2 sfplay~ objects that trigger a kick drum and a clap, I froze the attributes so that i don't have to load them every time I open the patch. They work fine but I'm trying to figure out how to assign each sample to it's own key (or drum pad) on my m-audio axiom 49. So far I've got notein going to stripnote (so the note off doesn't trigger the sound again) but every key i press triggers the sample. any suggestions?

I'm studying music technology. Currently in my second year. The brief is to produce and perform a piece of music. I'll be using logic to produce and max to perform.

Cheers for the link, this place is so friendly lol, I've been reading through a few posts slowly understanding the basics.
