Phat bass attack

Posted by Higen

909 Wave diagramA good tricks to get sweet phat sound on the trigger of a bass is to add a quick envelope which decays fast and rout it to the pitch of oscillator 2 this will make sure that the sound are more detuned on the start but quickly catches up on the default settings.  Controll the decayrate to expriment with diffrent phatness.

But remember!..  SAMPLER IS KING

Slice a drum-loop

Posted by Higen

Linn Drum

E-mu SP1200Well.. one night it came clear to me that drum-loop are made for slicing.. and it should be done..     My biggest problem is this.. i dont have any way of moving my samples from my pc to the sampler without using floppy disk or record the sample.   I have done the last option.. but then I have to cut the sample manualy... which is still a bit beyond my skills on the e6400 ultra.       But.. at least i have a mission to go...  hopefully i will be able to show off some examples soon :D ... stay tuned!!!   one more thing.. recycle is the perfect tool for slicing.. yea i know.. but i need to figure out how to move the result between my computer and sampler... ahhh the pain!!!!   Comment please :)
