What’s the differences between the both ?

When you are loading a bank it doesn’t load the sample data in the same time ?

Load bank will load only Event data without any of the sample data. Pre-loading all sample data in a bank is an optional step. Otherwise sample data for an Event is loaded when it’s first played.
