RESAMPLES AND LIVE PLAYING HELP!

Post by JARROD29B »

Hi. I recorded a few bars using the song editor then using the RESAMPLE function, stored it as a sample. When I tried to assign it to the bottom A key (the first on the board), i had to alter the octave and tuning of it. This has happened a few times with samples even audio samples taken from an mp3 or similar. Shouldn't they just be coming out the way i recorded them or have i missed something??

Any help would be great.

Thanks Guys.

Hi jarrod,

If you use the sample "as is" by selecting it from the Patch list (USAM or CSAM banks) it will work like a normal patch (i.e. pitch gets higher and lower as you move away from middle C on the keyboard).

If you want it to play at a specific pitch all the time you need to set the Pitch Keyfollow to 0 in Patch Edit.

Regards
Andy

Thanks Andy.
That has done the trick but it wont let me save it. I have edited my existing 'performance' mix of multiple instruments and samples but it will 'discard the edited patch' and then revert back to the original l-o-w pitch of the selected key.

Any ideas?

thanks again

you have modified a parameter of a patch, so, you will need to save this patch as well as the performance that calls it. otherwise, you can transpose it within the performance in such a way that it sounds just right on the bottom A.
