overlapping question

[quas]

this is probably a stupid question, but is there to go from playing sample A for example to sample B without them overlapping? i know that you can do it if both samples have 'gate' enabled, but is there a way to do it without that?

[timfromtexas]

no.

[Jim Y]

Again no

But you could get or make a new sample from your 2 sounds so you get the 1-2 play just how you want it on one pad.

yeaa i asked this same question about a month ago, sadly no polyphony settings on the 404. . .just gota do it the other way

[helloitabot]

You can do it if they are the same length, or a multiple of the same length. The trick is to just make a pattern for each sample. Each pattern will contain one sample which starts at the very begining, and just set the pattern length to the exact length of the sample it contains (just look at the bpm of the sample when you play the sample), and turn quantize on which will ensure the sample starts exactly at the begining of the pattern.

[helloitabot]

This works Because patterns dont overlap, of course this only works if you want to play the whole sample every time. Forgot to mention that.

[Dr Van Nostrand]

yeah, but you can do the same thing with all sorts of wierd chops, you just have to lay em down and trim em up how you want em, resample if you gotta have multiple lengths of the same start point, or rock gate and just run with it, tryin to max out the polyphony to mute in your favor is next to impossible

well you could use samples with a volume of 0 for that... sometimes it`s easier to press like 5-6 stereo samples (volume=0) to program a break than to erease certain elements or stuff...

hope you understand ...


still no mute group though

[Dr Van Nostrand]

damn wax, you just blew my mind

[Euclid Ov Oåklånd]

Yeah, this is a nice mute work around. Wax knows these machines inside in out if you listen to even his first battle tracks, you can hear it.
