The
situation... you have 15+ Audio Sampling CD's which
you bought for 99 bucks each but since they only
give about 4 measures of the loop you can't seem to
make a 4-5 minute song with it. If you can relate
to this dilemna, here's some things you can do to
help take the 4 bars to 4 minutes.
- Sample
a break.
- Loop,
truncate and normalize. When doing these
processes you'll find that the X makes a new
file, most times you don't want that old file.
To delete, hit the pad, hold down the (Sound)
button in the Pad Section and hit (No/Exit).
Answer the question.
- Once
looped and truncated it's 00 00 99 right? So
just divide 100 by whatever you want to split it
to. If it's 4 bars and you want a bar on every
pad, do a Copy params only (Pad/Process) to four
pads and set the Sample start/ends to 00 00 25,
26 00 50............. tweak to
perfection.
- If
you want to pull kicks and snares out. Do the
same thing "Copy params only" to a bunch of
pads, set playback to ONCE FORWARD instead of
LOOP, find starts and ends to isolate the single
instruments.
- Go
to ENV3 and set all the pads to FINISH. This
will make pad play through without having to
hold it down.
- Make
even more copies and edit them, some simple ones
to try are:
a)
Panned versions
b)
filtered
versions
c)
Effected and dry
versions
d)
reversed
versions
e)
detuned versions
There
ya go, you should now have one kit with multiple
variations of that one loop. Now that you've made
the basic ingredients by "recycling" the break,
next thing is to use the X's various synth, effect
and editor features to take it to the next level.
