turntable-esque time-stretching

[punch drunk]

does the fantom only support time-stretching (changing the tempo, without altering the pitch), or is there an option sumwhere for the oldschool turntable-esque sampling, where it makes the pitch higher or lower depending on if you speed up or slow down the sample?

[sambasevam]

yes.....its just the rough sample....

assign a sample to the keys. by default it is assigned to C. when u play higher notes, the tempo goes up and so does the pitch....

hope that helps.....

There is no way to play the sample forth and back on the FS, only the V-Synth can do this. However, there are many cool features that can be used to produce scratch-like sounds: 1) using the pitch bender in +/- 4 octave mode 2) using matrix control to increase the depth of pitch envelopes 3) using matrix control to apply different envelopes/LFOs to sample's TIME and PITCH parameters with tempo sync on. Using the latter you can create really killer scratch-like sounds and effects.

if you use the long time delay effect. and link it to the pitch bender ... also adjust the wet/dry output to your liking. you can even play a live beat and scratch it pretty convincingly back and forth I have spent hours tweaking and playing with this effect.. it is a gold mine but be sure to adjust all the parameters... because at first it seems a little difficult to get what you want out of it... the best thing about this effect is that it deals with the sound after it is produced... so you still have the opportunity to route the original sound around this effect and mainain continuity with beats and effects... and still scratch over the top without affecting the orginial sound.... I hope that makes sense...

Oh, yes, of course you can also use the Time Control Delay MFX to create cool scratches - I even have an article on this in my Tweak Book: http://artemiolabs.com/books/fsxtweakbook/

sorry, i guess i wasnt that clear lol its hard to describe wat im refering to. sambasevam was the only one that got wat i was saying i think.

i dont mean, getting actual scratching effects (although the stuff you guys said sounds pretty interesting), i ment, wat would be simply, speeding up, or slowing down the record.

i'm using the fantom for hip hop production. before i got it, i was using a software multi track program, and i would have a drum pattern loaded up on one track, and then id bring in a 4 bar loop from a sample into another track. then, id stretch the sample to fit the drum tempo, except, instead of time-stretching it, and sparing the pitch, the pitch would change with the tempo. so, if the loop was originally at 90 bpm and say, C.... when i sped it up to 95 bpm, the pitch would raise to E, or watever.

assigning the sample to the keys would accomplish this... but, i need the pads to chop
